 Mineral salts in vegetables are frequently lost to the human be- ing by the cooking of vegeta bles in water which Is then thrown away, carrying the vegetable salts with 1t. The safe course is to cook the vegetables in steam cookers which retain the juices and thereby the mineral salts.
 The chief value of iron in the body is as an essential part of the hemoglobin or red coloring mat ter of the blood. This substance is primarily responsible for carry ing the oxygen In the blood to the cells of the body which require 1t for health. The body of an in fant at birth contains about three times as much iron as that of a grown person. The child at birth is ready to begin growing at an exceedingly rapid rate. If 1t con- tinued all it's life at the rate at which 1t grows the first six months, 1t would be gigantic by the age of 10. For instance, it doubles its weight during the first six months. If 1t continued doub- ling it's weight every six months, 1t would weigh 2,0O0 pounds at four years of age. which is quite a baby.
 Since infants, during the first six months of life, live largely on milk, and since this is particular ly rich in iron, the infant Is sup piled with a store of iron or iron reserve until it gets older and be- gins to get iron in it's food. Nature is wonderful.
 As an example of the extra iron that may be required by the body, a prospective mother or one nurs- ing an infant must increase her iron intake by 20 per cent over that of the ordinary adult. The girl who approaches the period of maturity begins to lose blood and thereby requires more iron to keep her from developing second ary anemia. At this age she should take foods rich in iron, such as green vegetables and egg yolk as we'll as liver and kidneys. seem to go together in the body, so also does copper travel with iron. Investigators in the Uni versity of Wisconsin foundn that the kind of anemia that develops by wrong diet is not cured nearly so rapidly by the use of iron alone as by the use of iron accompanied by copper. Thus various types of iron are not as effective as others. Iron can be given in the inorganic form in pills and not be as effec- tive as when 1t is given in food substances which also contain some copper.
 Such substances include cab bage, lettuce and liver. The average American diet contains from 14 to 20 milligrams of iron day. The human body needs 15

pire to be ship. captains or candy store owners. Adults often have an ambition to be wine tester or trap drummer in burlseque show.
 None of these things ever ap- pealed to me--not that I ever was a small boy but was mostly tom boy, which is about the same thing. My ambitions always have been along boyish lines. That is, they were until about the time began noticing the color of boys neckties. Then I had burning ambition to become q trained nurse. And if l hadn't started act ing, I probably would be in hos pital right now.
 Fancy that! Good old Winnie in Q starched uniform and gaiter shoes ramming thermometers down guys throats and making funny signs on charts that even q handwriting expert couldn't de- cipher. What a break for human ity when I started acting!
 My first appearance as an ac- tress was in Buffalo on amateur nlBHt. TdI OuI oH tHS oSueV cAtu tried to sing a serious ballad. It was serious all right-only had run through the rain and couple of mud puddles in my haste to get to the theater in time and the audience just laughed. From that time my ambitions to be Q drama tic actress also have been in the waste basket.
 
 At intervals now am. caught with burning desire to be for tune teller. These animals have made life so miserable for me, by predicting all sorts of terrible things, that feel could return the favor with very little consci- ence trouble.
 So, I might have been a nurse land wasn't. I might have been 2 great dramatic actress--anc wasn't. I might have been a for tune teller--and wasn't.
 But still have ambitions. The, may sound strange but they ars ambitions. Look them oyer:

 Later she dabbled with painting for a while. But her real profes- sional career began in 1923 when, as a result of her beauty prize, she joined the Vanities as featured beauty in a special bathing scene. Later she became a Ziegfeld lumi- nary, and in 1926 Earl Carroll took her back to star in Fioretta."
 Athletic Hobbies
 There was a. Hull in Dorothy's theatrical career until she signed with NEG recently. Meantime she continued her athletic activities, all hobbies for her. They're horse- back riding, swimming and walk ing.
 Although she lives in pept- house near Central park with her mother and father, and is in the mdst of the busy night life in New York, this attractive beauty cares little for 1t. She boasts she's al- ways in bed before midnight.
 And besides, she adds, she neither drings nor smokes.

milligrams. A slight excess of iron in the diet is therefore not likely to be harmful and will make certain of a safe amount.
 Another element which seems to be associated with the assimi- lation of iron is manganese. The red coloring matter of the blood Is maintained by the assistance of iron, copper and m anganese. This was found by testing the ability of animals to regenerate hemoglobin that had been de- stroyed when fed various quan- titles of these salts. Fortunately nature takes care of this human need by combining these sub stances in foods. If one eats a diet in which the vegetables have been properly selected, these needs are usually provided for.

LIQUOR SOURCE
DAMNED WITH
STILL SEIZURE
Daily Output of 1875 Gallons
of Whisky Is Stopped
in Raid.

A generous source of Indianapolis
liquor was wiped out late Thursday
when deputy sherids raided a resi-
dence in Lafayette Heights and
conhscated 3O0-gallon still with
daily output of 125 gallons Of
whisky.
Deputies had gone to the home
Of w. Darnell on information a
small still was in operation. The
one found, which occupied most Of
the basement Of the house, is one
of the largest ever confiscated and
dismantled in or near Indianapolis.
Darnen was not at home when
the raid was made. Today he is
the object of a wide search.
Mrs. Edith Darnell, who was at
home with her three small children,
admitted to deputies that the still
had been erected six weeks ago and
had been in operation daily since
then, they said.
According to deputies she told
them that the 125 gallons of whisky
manufactured daily by her husband
was sold wholesale in barrel lots to
retailers. Ninety-eight gallons of
barreled corn whisky were found in
the basement, deputies said.
In addition to the whisky, deputies
said they found $500 gallons Of

Others may know how to turn a

the why" Of it.
Attending the annual meeting of
the American Chemist Society in
this city, Miss Wall took time out
to debunk some old superstitions
about hair dyes and hair marceIs.
"The superstition of women that
hair dyes will soften the brain is
foolish. Dyes have nothing to do
with the brain. They change only
that which they touch" she said.
She gave henna dye a spank with
the comment, they say it is not
dye and that because Of its vegetable
origin it is good for the scalp. Mel
Their Of these notions is correct.
"Henna is a dye-an orange-red
dye-why then should beauty oper-
ators act nysteriously about it and
deceive patrons. Henna can be
used on very few persons because
red hair goes naturally with fair
complexion" she said.

strength of mind to stand up and

1t was the first word heard of the

to get more information on the
safety of the filters.

Williams, recited contentious that
acquisition at present is impos-
sible because the city already is in
solvent, having exceeded its bonded
Indebtedness limit by $5,O00,000."
1t would be necessary for the city
to increase its bond debt, now about
$13,000,000, if it acquired the gas
company, he said. A law limiting
Indebtedness to 2 per cent. of prop
erty valuation would forbid this,
Rocker stated.
Rocker also charges that trust
funds of the Citizens Gas Company,
which he also says is insolvent, are
being diverted from proper channels
at the rate of 81 100000 a year.
He attacked the indeterminate
permit given the company by the
Indiana public service commission
as void, declaring it replaced the
company'S 1905 franchise with the
city and impaired the obligation of
a contract"
This contract provided for the
ultimate acquisition OF the Citizens
Gas Company by the city.
Authority of the public service
commission in granting the per-
nit was branded as a violation of
the state Constitution, under
which, Rocker cited, there can be
no such thing as an indeterminate
permit, or special charter.
Judge Clarence E. Weir heard the
arguments and ordered attorneys to
file briefs.
Thompson vigorously contended
that Williams, as taxpayer, "has
no right to ask the court to wrest
the gas company property from its
present trustees and put it in hands
of a receiver"
