A CAUSE Of
W0MEN'S ILLS
WOMEN OFTEN THINK THEY HAVE
HEART TROUBLE. INDIGESTION. NER.
VOUS PROSTRATlON. ETC. WHEN IT'S
SIMPLY IRON STARVATION OF THE
BLOOD.

Many women believe that they are
weak and nervous as a result OF age,
worry and overwork; they think that
their disturbed digestion, headaches,
heart palpitation, shortness of breath,
pains across the back, etc, are due to
some serious disease instead OF the
real cause--iron starvation of the
blood. This is proven by the fact that
when many of these same women take
organic iron for awhile all their
alarming symptoms quickly disappear
and they become strong, robust and
healthy. Iron is absolutely necessary
to enable your blood to change food
into living cells and tissue. Without
it nothing you eat does you the prop
er amount of good you do lot get
the strength out of it
If you are not strong and well DO
collapse in a state of nervous pros
tration, but take some organic iron
Nuxated Iron-at once. But be sure
it's organic iron and not metallic iron
which people usually take and which
Is made merely by the action of strong
acids on small pieces of iron. Organic
MINATED IRON is like the iron in
YOUR bblood and like the iron in spin
ach, lentils and apples and it often
increases the bodily and mental Vigor
of weak, wornout women in TWO
weeks time.
Beware of substitutes. LoDk for
the word "NuXated" on every package
and the letters N. /. on every tablet.
Your money will be refunded by the
manufacturers If you do not obtain
perfectly satisfactory results. At all

TABLOID SKETCH OF
FATHER OF COUNTRY

George Washington. Com
Chief of the American
Revolutionary armies and first
President of the United States,
was born February %. 1882, near
Bridges Creek, Westmoreland
county, Va
He was a son of Augustine
Washington. a planter, and Mary
Ball, both OF English ancestry.
He grew up to be a surveyor
and planter, and in 1859 married
Martha cambridge Curtis.
He was a Federalist in politics
and was inaugurated April 30,
1889. in New York city as the
President Of the United States.
His second Inauguration was in
Philadelphia. He was fifty-seven
years old when inaugurated and
at that time resided at Mt. YER
non, Va.
Washington served seven years,
ten months. and four days as
President.
He delivered his farewell ad-
dress on the approach Of his re-
tirement from the Presidency on

phlet in those days. according to Mr.
King, estimated that SO a year would
be ample pocket money for any stu
dent. Some of the students now
spend more than that on one party.
$500 FOR YEARLY EXPENSES.
"A pamphalet issued in 1924 by the
college stated that tuition, library,
board, fuel, light, bed and bedding,
room rent, stewards salary, servants,
shoe blacking, etc. would not ordi-
narily exceed 5000 a year." said Mr..
King. Then followed the explanation
that this sum included all charges eX-
cept clothing, books, pocket money,
and vacations, and that $40 year
would, in the opinion of the trustees,
be quite as much as ought in any case
be allowed a student for pocket
money.
"As late as 1850 is was thought that
the necessary college expenses OF
boarding student, exclusive OF books
and stationery, would not exceed
$3.50, and, with a less expensive table
where students might dispense with
tea and coffee and few other
articles. $3.50 a year. The board at
the higher priced table was $3.50 a
week and at the lower price, Sl.5O.'

If George Washington should re-

that the Government he helped to

the sea and the air; and he would
find in these remarkable develop

"The great rule of conduct of US
in regard to foreign nations is to
