Is Your Blood \
Hungry For Iron?
Iron Is The Red Blood Food That Gives
You Strength, Energy and Power
How To Make The Test That Tells

Actual blood tests show that a tremen-
'dously large number of people who are weak
and Ill lack iron in their blood and that they
are i'll for no other reason than lack of iron.
Iron deficiency paralyzes healthy, forceful
action, pulls down the whole organism and
weakens the entire system. A pale face, .
nervous irritable disposition, . lack Of
strength and endurance and the inability 20
cope with the strong vigorous folks in the
race OF life--these are the sort of warning
signals that Nature gives when the blood Is
getting thin, pale, watery and literally starv-
ing for want of iron. If you are not sure Of
your condition, go TO your doctor and have
him take your blood count and see where
you stand or else make the following test
yourself: See how long you can work or
how far you can walk without becoming
tired; next take two five-grain tablets Of
Nuxated Iron three times per day after
meals for two weeks. Then test your
strength again and see how much you have
gained. BY enriching the blood and creating
new red blood cells, Nuxated Iron strength
ems the nerves, rebuilds the weakened tssuea
and helps TO instili renewed energy and
power into the whole system.
:. Unlike the older inorganic iron prodxSts
Nuxated Iron is easily assimilatcd, does not
,nJure the teeth, make them black nor upset
the stomach. The manufacturers guarantee

HCINDERELLA,S DAUGHTER"
When Kathleen's Leadership Failed
BY HAZEL DEYO BATCHELOR
Copyright, 1919, b. Pablo Ledger Ca

"How lovely your hair is" she ven
tured as Virginia finished brushing her
short black hair. "You look like a
lovely gypsy"
There came an imperious knock on
| the door and Kathleen burst into the
room. She drew herself up haughtily
when she saw Edna Platt and for a
moment there was complete silence
among the three girls. Finally Kath-
leen spoke, turning a cold, slim shoul-
der toward the intruder.
I'D like to speak to you, Virginia"
she said frigidly. Her tone said quite
plainly, Get rid of this girl immedi-
ately, I'm here now"
Virginia walked over and sat down
near Edna. Anything importantly"
beating chokingly up in her throat.
Edna Platt had flushed painfully and
had half risen, but Virginia pressed
her back into her seat.
Kathleen stood staring in amazement
at Virginia. This was something like
tiagrant disloyalty. Virginia was
standing by this outsider, was calmly
defying her best friend. 1t was as
founding!
Again Edna Platt rose to 60.
REALLY, ] must" she murmured as
Virginia protested.
Kathleen drew herself up to her en-
tire slim height.
mo, I'll go,'' she said haughtily,
sweeping out and leaving behind her
scent of expensive French perfume and
an ache in Virginia's heart.
Edna Platt turned to Virginia
quickly. "You shouldn't have done
that" she protested, "I was going,
anyway. just dropped in to say
good night; you've been so good to me.
And now I've made lot of trouble
for you"
Virginia denied this laughingly and
even went to the door with Edna when
she left, but after the door closed be-
hind the girl Virginia's S heart sank and
she knew that she was miserably un-
happy. She wanted more than any
thing in the world to creep to Kath-
leen's room and beg forgiveness, but
something held her back Back of the
desire to keep Kathleen's friendship
was the knowledge that not even for
Kathleen could she have hurt poor
Edna Platt 1t was Virginia's first
knowledge that there was something in
her nature that even Kathleen could
not influence.

made UP and the result.)

Synopsis
Virginia West, entering boarding
school, Is strangely drawn toward

clude Virginia among the group whom
she rules.

she rules.
OF COURSE the hazing stunts were
soon forgotten. In the happy,
healthy life that the girls led at Pal
mertown there was no time for brood
ing, and in addition to that Virginia
wanted to forget. She was certain
that Kathleen, meant nothing by it;
certainly her attitude toward Virginia
had been everything that could be de-
sired since then. The two girls were
always together and Virginia was very
happy. She wrote enthusiastic letters
home to her mother about the school,
and almost every other sentence had
some reference to Kathleen Foster.
''She is coming home with. me at
Christmas" Virginia wrote in one of
her letters. II know you'll love her
as much as do. Oh, Mother, she's
SO wonderful to look at and such a
queen among the girls, and yet she
seems to like to be with me-"
Virginia never wrote of the hazing.
Something loyal in her nature kept her
silent on this question, which she had
never settled in her mind to her own
satisfaction.
Kathleen had by now annexed Vir-
ginia quite safely to her train. She
was certain that she could manage the
younger girl perfectly; that she had
only to crook her small white finger
and Virginia would eagerly follow her
through everything that she suggested.
But Kathleen had. after all. little un-
derstanding of Virginia's s true charac-
ter. This was proved to her just be-
fore the Thanksgiving holidays. In the
sorority there were six girls who
formed little clique of their own.
These girls were the ringleaders, and
Kathleen led them. Virginia was, of
course, one of these six. At Palmer
town, as in every large boarding school,
there were a certain few girls who
had not been asked to join sororities.
They were voted "dubs" by the others
and they crept about the place, silent
and transformations. Kathleen despised
these girls, mostly because they were
studious and wore ugly clothes. Be-
sides, girl VINO was not asked to be-
long to any of the sororities, not even
the poorest of the three, was simply
accepted in the school as impossible
ana ner lie was uluue ihlseAhDle Ny
the luckier girls.
One of these girls, Edna Platt,
roomed on the same corridor with Vir-
ginia. 1t was not in Virginias nature
to snub this girl, although she did
not particularly like her. However,
she was kind to her and never snubbed
and insulted her as the other girls did.
One night when Virginia was getting
ready for bed there came timid knock
on the door. and when Virginia called
"come i'm Edna Platt appeared on
the threshold. She was wrapped in
an ugly blanket bathrobe and she came
into the room timidly and SIT down.
