a surprising number of persons who. suffer
from iron deficiency. Many capable man
or woman falls just snort of winning because
they don't back up their mentality with the
physical strength and energy which comes
from having plenty of iron in the blood.
Lack of iron in the blood not only makes
man a physical and mental weakling, nerv-
Gus, irritable, easily fatigued, but it utterly
robs him of that virile force, that stamina
and strength of will which arc so necessary
to success and power in every walk of life.

in my experience which have found SO
valuable as organic iron--Nuxated Iron.

The Journey to the Nome Kings Domain

Having heard the story of Ozma
of OF from her old friends, the
Scarecrow and the Tin Woodman,
Dorothy related to them her own
adventures, and then went out with
her friends to find the Sawhorse,
which Ozma had caused to be shod
with plates of gold, so that it's legs
would not wear out.
They came upon the Sawhorse
standing motionless beside the gar
den gate, but when Dorothy was
introduced to him he bowed polite
ly and blinked his eyes,. which were
knots of wood, and wagged his tail,
which was only the branch of a
tree.
What a remarkable thing, to be
alive!" exclaimed Dorothy.
II quite agree with you," re-
piled the Sawhorse, in a rough but
not unpleasant voice. "a creature
like me has no business to live, as
we all know. But it was the magic
power that did it, so I cannot justly
be blamed"
"Of course not" said Dorothy
"And you seem to be of some use,
cause I noticed the Scarecrow rid
ing upon your back"
"Oh. yes; I'm of use," returned

in any way"
Are you intel'gent?" asked the
girl.
Not very" said the creature. ut
would be foolish to waste intelli-
gence ons a common Sawhorse,
when so many professors need it.
But I know enough to obey my
masters, and to giddup, or whoa,
when I'm told to. So I'm pretty
we'll satisfied
That night Dorothy slept in a
pehsant little bedchamber next to
that occupied by Ozma of Oz, and
Billina perched upon the foot of the
bed and tucked her head under her
wing and slept as soundly in that
position as did Dorothy upon her
soft cushions.
But before daybreak every one
was awake and stirring, and soon
the adventures were eating a hasty
breakfast in the great diningroom
of the palace. Ozma sat at the head
of a long table, on a raised plat
form. with Dorothy on her right
hand and the Scarecrow on her left.
The Scarecrow did not eat, of
course; but Ozma placed him near
her so that she might ask his ad-
vice about the journey while she
ate.
Lower down the table were the
twenty-seven warriors OF Or, and
at the end of the room the Lion and
the Tiger were eating out of ket-
tie that had been placed upon the
floor, while Billina fluttered around
to pick up any scraps that might be
scattered.
1t did not take long to finish the
meal and then the Lion and the
Tiger were harnessed to the chariot
and the party was ready to start
for the Nome Kings Palace.
First rode Ozma, with Dorothy
beside her in the golden chariot and
holding Billina fast in her arms.
Then came the Scarecrow on the
Sawhorse. with the Tin Woodman
and Tiktok marching side by side
Just behind him. After these
tramped the Army, looking brave
and handsome in their splendid uni
forms. The generals commanded
the colonels and the colonies COM

captains commanded the private

Importance because it required so
many officers to give him his orders.
And so the magnificent process
sion left the palace and started
along the road just as day was

came out they had made good prog

the Nome Kings domain.
The road led for a time through
pretty farm country, and then
past a picnic grove that was very
tinued to steadily advance until Bill
lima cried in an abrupt and COM
manding manner:
Wait! Watt"
Ozma stopped her chariot so sud-
denly that the Scarecrow's Saw
horse nearly ran into it, and the
ranks of the army tumbled over one
another before thew could come to
halt. Immediately the yellow hen
struggled from Dorothy'S arms and
flew into a clump of bushes by the
roadside.
whats the matter?" called the
Tin Woodman, anXiously.
"Why, Billina wants to lay her
egg, that's ALL" said Dorothy.
Lay her egg." repeated the Tin
Woodman, in astonishment.
Yes; she lays one every morning
about this time; and it's quite
fresh" said the girl.
But does your foolish old hen
suppose that this entire cavalcade,
which is bound on an important ad-
venture, is going to stand still while
she laws her egg?" inquired the Tin
Woodman earnestly.
What else can we do?" asked
the girl. IT'S a habit of Billina's
and she can't break herself of 1t. -
Then she must hurry up" said
the Tin Woodman, impatiently

crow. eff she hurries she may lay

But Billina wont be long, I'm
sure"
So they stood and waited, al

FULTON MINDFUL
OF WAR HEROES
Plan to Erect Memorial 10
Cost $4,000 in Square at
McConnelfsburg

McConncllsburg, Pa, Sept. 10
Following the settlement of all bills
cor the Welcome Home Celebration
recently given in McConnellsburg
to the returned soldiers of Fulton
county, the finance committee was
able to report a balance OF more
than $275 on hand to be turned
over to the fund for the building
of a permanent Honor Roll and
Memorial to the soldiers of the
county.
= - convention of delegates repre-
senting the different townships of
the county was held at the Court
Eouse and ways and means discuss
ed for carrying out campaign all
over the county for funds to erect
an Honor Roll and Memorial to the
soldiers. 1t was decided that at
least SIS 5000 should be secured for
this purpose and that the center
square in the county seat, McCon-
nellsburg, should be the site for the
erection of this memorial.
The balance from the Welcome
Home celebration together with
some money collected some years
ago for the erection of a soldiers
memorial to the boys of the COS,
gives the fund something to start
on and it is the opinion of the
committee that the goal set will be
easily reached and the memorial
dedicated on Memorial Day, 1920.
The Rev. William ]. Lowe and
d. H. Patterson will secure the ser
vices of an expert designer who is
to submit plans for the beautifying
of the public square and make suS-
Sestions for fitting memorial. This
memorial will bear bronze tablets
upon which will be cast the names
of all the soldiers who have answer
ed the call of their country in the
Civil, Spanish-American and World
wars. Smaller tablets will tell of tre
part played by the soldiers from this
section in the revolutionary, Wa
of 1912 and Mexican wars. These
three latter named wars were
fought before the county of Fulton
was established.

side of the narrow road and swung
over it's right shoulder was an i'm
mense iron mallet, with which it
constantly pounded the earth. These
resounding blows explained the
humping sounds that they had
heard, for the maller was much
bigger than barrel, and where it
struck the path between the rocky
sides of the mountain it filled all
the space through which our travel
ers would be obliged to pass.
OF course they at once halted, a
safe distance away from the terrible
iron mallet. The magic carpet
would do them no good in this case,
for it was only meant to protect
them from any dangers upon the
ground beneath their feet. and not
from dangers that appeared in the
air above them.

though all were restless and anxi-
Gus to proceed. And by and by the
yellow hen came from the bushes
saying: "Kut-kut. kut, ka-daw-
kutt! kut, kut, kut-ka- -daw-kut"
What is she doing-singing her
lay?" asked the Scarecrow.
"Forward-march" shouted the
Tin Woodman, waving his ave, and
! the procession started just as Doro-
I thy had once more grabbed Billina
in her arms.
Isn't anyone going to get my
egg?" cried the hen, in great excite
ment.
"I'll get it," said the Scarecrow;
! and at his command the Sawhorse
pranced into the bushes. The straw
man soon found the egg, which he
placed in his jacket pocket. The
cavalcade, having moved rapidly on.
was even then far in advance; but
it did not take the Sawhorse long to
catch up with it, and presently the
! Scarecrow was riding in his accus-
! toned place behind Ozma's char
lot.
What shall I do with the egg?"
he asked Dorothy.
! 'I do not know" the girl an
swered. Perhaps the Hungry Tiger
would like it
1T would not be enough to fill
one of my back teeth" remarked
| the Tiger. "a bushel of them, hard
! boiled, might take a little of the
! edge off my appetite; but one egg
| isn't good for anything at all, that 1
/ know of"
mo; it wouldn't even make a
! sponge cake" said the Scarecrow,
! thoughtfully. THE Tin Woodman
| might carry it with his axe and
, hatch it; but after all 1 may as we'll
keep it myself for a souvenir" So
! he left it in his pocket
/ They had now reached that part
! of the valley that lay between the
! two high mountains which Dorothy
had seen from her tower window.
| At the far end was the third great
mountain, which blocked the val
! ley and was the northern edge of
| the Land of Ev. 1t was under
meath this mountain that the Nome
Kings palace was said to be- but it
would be some time before they
reached that place.
The path was becoming rocky
and difficult for the wheels of the
! chariot TO pass over, and presently
a deep gulf appeared at their feet
which was too wide for them to
! leap. So Ozma took a small square
of green cloth from her pocket and
threw it upon the ground. At once
! it became the magic carpet, and
unrolled itself far enough for all
/ the caValcade to walk upon. The
| chariot now advanced and the
green carpet unrolled before it,
/ crossing the gulf on n level with its
| banks, so that all passed over it
safely.
That's easy enough said the
| Scarecrow. II wonder what will
| happen next"
| He was not long in making the
| discovery. for the sides of the noun
| tain came closer together until
/ finally there was but narrow path
! between them, along which Ozma
and her party were forced to pass
| in single file.
/ They now heard a low and deep
hump!-thump!- which
! echoed throughout the valley and
| seemed to grow louder as they ad
vanced. Then, turning a corner of
rock, they saw before them a huge
! form, which lowered above the-path
| for more than a hundred feet. The
! form was that of gigantic
man built out of plates of cast irn,
