DEAR ANNIE LAURIE:

DEAR ANNIE LAURIE:
am a girl, 10 years Of age. For
two years I have been engaged to
a young man the same age.
a few months ago he went TO
college TO learn his life's profession.
Since that time I have been very
lonely as I am compelled 70 stay
home because my fiance objects 10
my going with other gentleman
friends. Do you think he is right
in displaying this selfish attitude to-
ward me, thus depriving me of
much pleasure? Although ne claims
he does not pay any attentions TO
other girls, yet he enjoys life in a
large city and has a marked advan-
tage over me. Life in the country
seems very dull at times and I feel
I can hardly tolerate all of the lone
Illness.
Would It be wise for me to go
against his Will?

ACT ON PAVING
FOR M|ETUCHEN
Borough Officials to Go Be-
fore Freeho|ders to Speed
Up Work

NEW BRUNSWICK, Jan. IL
Representatives FROM the borough of
Metuchen will appear before the
County Board o. Freeholders at
their weekly session tomorrow, in
an effort to speed up the action on
the north Main street paving pro-
. gram. While the officials of the
town L held up in passing their
ordnance in connection with the
Improvement the county authorities
are showing no disposition in expe-
diting matters.
Under the agreements between the
two bodies the work is to be done by
the county under one contract and
the cost o. the towns share is to be
paid over as required. Until some
definite action is taken by the free
holders the hands Of the Metuchen
officials arc tied.
a peculiar phase Of the situation
is, that tire frechclders made all
preparations for doing the work last
fall, the specifications calling for a
Warrenite surface through a patent
pavement by the board was consid-
cred a useless expense and the bids
for the work were rejected in ac-
cordance with the freeholders cleo
ton promise thai we always give
people what they want"
The pavement favored by tho
town governing body, is Il reinforced
concrete roadway the full width of
the street, together with concrete
curcs, though the freeholders have
seemed to lose interest in the i'm
provement since Warrenite proved
distastefui.

WHY YOU NEED

When the carbon IN your nod zones in

great force, strength and endurance.
Without iron your blood carries no oXy-

so that what you eat does you no good
you do not get any strength frotn it
1t is like putting coal into a stow with

The strongest weapon with which to

is organic iron, not metallic iron which
people usually take. but organic iron like
the iron in spinach, lentils and apples,
and alike the iron contained in what is
known as organic Nuxated Iron. which
may be had from almost any druggist.
Nuxated Iron often increases the strength,

DISMAL. SWAMP
WORK PUSHED
Will be Completed by Next
Spring Ends Mosquito
Breeding There

METUCHEN, Jan. 11:-Rapid
progress has been made during the
last six months in draining the
Dismal swamp. and before mos
quito breeding time next spring the
work will have been carried to COM
pletion.
Work was, started on the upper
end of the swamp last June and to
the third of this month, when the
lower end of the swamp vas reach
ed, the seven loot grade had been
cleaned of debris so as to flow water.
Just as Dor as weather conditions
permit the laterals will be gone
over which will ycomplete the work
as anticipated and arranged for by
the local board of health.
This work which was advocated
by the local authorities and the
state board of health about two
years ago and was financed by the
borough and Raritan township
while the work was done under the
direct supervision of the County
Mosquito determination Commits
sion. OF the $1,000 appropriated by
the two municipalities there re-
mains about $500 which is estimat-
ed will be sufficient to finance the
improvement.
The benefits to be derived from
the drainage of the 900 acre morass
include the elimination of many
pools of stagnant water, the LOVER
ing of the water level in the vtcin-
ity, while a large breeding grdund
for fresh water mosquitoes is entire
ly done away with.
Numerous difficulties were exper-
fenced since the work was started,
the wet weather of the fall seriously
retarding the progress of the work
and at n time the heavy rainfall
caused the sinking of the barge on
which the working equipment was
installed.
The peculiar soil condition was
such that the usual methods of
operation were of no avail, the i'm
pervious clay being too heavy to
dig out by hand. After surveying
and inspecting the existing condi-
tons, Frank w. Miller, the super
intendent of the county commission,
obtained a pump rig, the intake Of
which was sunk beneath the heavy
clay and the white sand layer below
was pumped out causing the clay
bottom to sink to the required level.
Members of the local Board of
Health are highly gratified yer the
results obtained and feel the slight
expenditure will be the a of
assisting in obtaining better health
conditions in the town.
