During the war two venerable and
honored Americans In Paris passed
away. They were Mr.. and Mrs. Frank
II. Mason, our American Consul-G Cen
eral and his wife. Mr.. Mason was a
veteran OF the civil war and one OF
the ex-inmate martyrs of Libby
Prison. Mrs. Mason was President Of
the American section OF the Lyceum
Club. and both, in spite Of their ad-
vanced age, were active war workers.
Mr.. Mason, who had been succeeded
In the consular service by Mr.. Thack-
era, at once became secretary out at
Military Hospital No. 1, at Neuilly,
and II was overwork In that institu-
ton which hastened his death.
Mrs. Mason never recovered from
the blow, and In less than six months
her death followed. Evidently with
the idea Of obviating awkward burial
regulations, they requested that their
bodies be cremated. which was done,
and the urns placed in the American
Episcopal Church in avenue de rAlma,
OF which they always had been faith
fui attendants. But now we learn that
shortly after that, for reasons which
are not clear. the urns were ordered

How To Make The Test That Tells

Actual blood tests show that tremer-
dous large number of people who are weak
and i'll lack iron in their blood and that they
are i'll for no other reason than lack OF IRON:
Iron deficiency parayzes healthy, torcefui
action pulls down the whole organism ana
weakens the entire system. pale race,
nervous irritable disposition, lack OF
strength and endurance and the inability to
cope with the strong vigorous folks in the
race of life-thcse 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 nave
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 fve-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 tissues
and helps to instill renewed energy and
power into the whole system.
Unlike the older inorganic iron products
NuXated Iron is easily assimilated does not

the stomach. The manufacturers guarantee
successful and entirely satisfactory results
to every purchaser or they will refund your
money. 1t is dispensed by all good druggists.
