Many of the highest medical authorities
agree that Iron is a necessary constituent
of the blood and that blood lacking iron is
the cause of many troubles that only iron
will cure.
ZIRON, the compound iron preparation,
is the remedy to take when your blood needs
help, by reason of it's lack of iron.
Among the eminent physicians who are
in accord as to the need of the system for
iron. under certain conditions of anemia,
general weakness, etc, may be mentioned
DR.. George F. Butler, A. NJ, Phi. G., NJ. D.,
formerly professor and Head OF the DE.
partment of Therap eutics and Professor of
Preventive and Clinical Medicine, of the
Chicago College of Medicine and Surgery.
In his "Text Book of MUeria Medicd," DR..
Butler says of iron that it is "a valuable
stomachic tonic" and that Its primary eff
feet is to supply a deficiency of red cor
puscles, and bring the hemoglobin up to
its normal standard"
DR.. Finley Ellington, late Professor of
Materia Medica and Therapeutics in Ben
nett Medical College, Chicago, in his book,
I"American Mdteria Medica," says; BY
the Improvement of the blood and the in
creased supply of oxygen to the tissues, oc
jcasioned by the administration of iron when
this agent is deficient, the nervous system
Is directly influenced in a most favorable
manner. There is increased strength and a
greatly augmented power to resist disease"

MEDICAL AUTHORITY
BACKS MEDICAL CLAIMS
FOR ZIRON IRON TONIC
Eminent Physicians Agree That Iron Is Valuable
Agent In Certain Forms of Disease
zIRoN NOT A patent OR SECRET REMEDY

Dr. Hobart Amory Hare, Professor Of
Therapeutics in the Jefferson Medical Col
lege of Philadelphia, in his book, "a Text
Book of Practical Therapeutics" says:
"Iron has little or no effect upon the sys-
TEN when given in a single dose, but re-
peated doses cause an increase in the num-
Der of red blood corpuscles, and plethora,
or an increase in the quantity and quality
of the blood"
ZIRON Iron Tonic, composed of pure
iron salts, combined with the hypophos-
phtes of lime and soda, and other valuable
tonic and Alternative ingredients-as speci-
fled on the label of every bottle--is not a
patent medicine or secret remedy, but a
perfected pharmaceutical preparation, of
great value and genuine merit in the treat
ment of conditions due to lack of iron in
the blood, such as are described above.
If you are weak, debilitated, lacking in
energy, feel worn out, and suffer from
loss of appetite, dyspepsia, nervousness, ir-
ritability; if you are pale, and wish to OBJ
tain the rosy cheeks that show the presence
of iron in your blood, try ZIRON Iron
Tonic, for ZIRON will furnish the iron that
the impoverished system lacks.

Nausealess, Safe and Sure.
Pensacola Testimony

Doctors have found by experience
that no medicine for colds and influ-
enza can be depended upon for full eff
fectiyeness until the liver is made thor
oughly active. That Is why the first
step Ia the treatment is the new, nsu-
sealess colonel tablet called Calotabs.
which are free from the sickening and
weakening effects Of the old style caIo-
mel. Doctors also point out the fact
that an active liver may go long way
towards preventing influenza and is
one Of the most important factors in
enabling the patient TO successfully
Withstand an attack and ward off
pneumonia.
One Calotab on the tongue at bed
time, with swallow OF water-that's
all. No salts. no nausea nor the
slightest interference with your eat
Ing, pleasure or work. Next morn
Ing your cold has vanished, your liver
Is active. your system is purified, and
you are feeling fine, with a hearty
appetite for breakfast. Druggists sell

ages, price thirty-five cents. Your
money will be cheerfully refunded il

.PETRINITE
ORLEANS COTTON
DECIDEDLY HIGHER
Close of Monday Trading Is 100 Points
Over Saturday.

New Orleans. Oct 25.-Three COM
bined today to put the cotton market
stronger higher, continued claims of
practical settlement of the British
coal strike, bad weather in the belt
over Sunday and reports of a wide
spread improvement in the spot de-
mand which, locally was reflected in
an advance of rs points. The market
held at an advance throughout the
session except for a brief period on
the opening cali, and stood at its best
50 to log points over the closing level
of last week. Last prices were at
net gains of 80 to 80 points.
The trading OF the day carried the
contract market to wide premiums
over spots, December rising to 21.34,
and May to 20.6o. during the strong
est period. December closed at 2I.23,
as against the quotation of 2050 on
middling. Near months were stronger
than the distant which widened out
the differences between months.
On the first call December lost 30
points on what looked like liquida-
ton. but other months were at net
advances and after the call the en-
tire list advanced. During the great
er part of the session the market had
a firm tone although following the
census bureau report showing 5,712.0 57
bales ginned to October IS, a larger
total than expected, there were says
which finally carried the price off un-
til the active months were only about
ten to fifteen points up net.
