WHY YOU need
IRON
To make you strongand 'brainy"
and put the power into your

PRACTICAL ADVICE ON HOW
TO DEVELOP GREAT ENER-
GY AND ENDURANCE

The food you eat contains carbon.
When your food is digested II is alb
sorhed from the intestines into the
blood. When the carbon in your food
comes in contact with the oxygen car
ried by the iron in your blood, the car
bon and oxygen unite and by so doing
they give of tremendous energy, there
by giving you great force. strength and
endurance. without iron your blood
carries no oxygen and without oxygen
there is nothing to unite with the car
bon in your food. so that what you eat
does you no gOOd-you do not get any
strength from tit is like putting coal
into a stove without a fire. You cannot
get any heat unless the coal unites with
the fire.
The strongest weapon with which 70
prevent and overcome colds, pneumonia,
kidney trouble, rheumatism, nervous
prostration, in fact, almost any disease
or disease germs Is plenty Of good, rich,
pure blood, strength. energy and endur-
ance and the greatest energy carrier in
the body Is organic iron, not metallic
iron. which people usually take. but
organic iron like the iron In spinach,
lentils and apples and like the iron con-
tained in what Is known as organic Nux-
ated Iron, which may be had from al
most any druggist
II you have been taking metallic iron
without benefit, such Is no proof that
organic Nuxated Iron viii not help you.
Nuxated Iron often increases the
strength, energy and endurance Of weak,

product that even the Pope at Rome

CALL POLICE IF
YOUR SUSPICIOUS
This the Only Way to Cap
ture Burglars, Detective
Says
EXTRA COPS ARE
READY TO HUNT

-1f the public would cooperate
with the police more burglars would
be caught" said Captain Of Detec-
tives Benson this morning.
MANY people at night win hear
an unusual noise, or see someone
acting suspiciously but hesitate to
notify the police for fear they have
been needlessly alarmed, They
should bear in mind that the police
are for just that purpose.
Suppose we do have four fake
alarms and in the fifth case succeed
in capturing the burglars in the
act as we did this morning, we feel
well repaid for the trouble.
Extra men are always kept at
the police station for just such calls.
and more frequent use Of the police
telephone at night undoubtedly will
result in capturing moro Of the rob-
bors in this city"
