Public Should Demand Original
Nuxated Iron
Physician Warns Against Danger
Of Accepting Substitutes Says
That Ordinary Metallic Iron Preparations
Cannot Pouibly Civa The Same
Strength. Power
and Endurance
As Organic Iron Nuxated Iron
Thft remarkable results pro
duced by Nuxated Iron and its
widespread sale (it bein estim
ated that over three million peo
ple annually are today using it)
baa led to the offering of numer
ous substitutes, and these physi
cians mentioned below say that
lealth officials and doctors everywhere should caution the public against accepting yub
stitutes lor Nuxated Iron, as these substitutes instead of being organic iron may be
nothing more than a metallic iron compound which may in some cases produce more harm
than good. Those who feel the need of a strength and blood builder, should go to their
Jamily doctors and obtain a prescription calling tor organic iron nuxated
Iron and present this to their druggist so that there may be no question
about obtaining the proper article. But if they do not wish to go to the
trouble of getting a prescription for Nuxated Iron then they should be
sure to look on the label and see that the words NUXATED IRON are
printed tbereon.
There are thousands of wople taking Iron who do not distinguish
between organic iron and metallic iron and such persons often fail to
btam the vital energy, strength and endurance which they seek simply
because they have taken the wrong form of Iron. If you are not
- strong or well, you owe it to yourselt to make the following test:
See how long you can work or how far you can walk without
becoming tired. Next take two five-grain tablets of Nuxated
Wxif&ZQs. ' Iron three times oer day after meals for two weeks. Then
test your ttrengtn ana see now muca you bare gained.

orders of Judge Campbell, who dis
charged all of the jury for duty on
account of so many of the men being

case of its kind in the history of the

men. Judge Campbell says that he
will call an extra session of the cir
cuit court jury at a later date, when
new jurors will be drawn.

there Is no need to become panic

three Cs: a Clean Mouth, a Clean Skin
and Clean Bowels, To carry off the
poisons that accumulate within the body
and to ward off an attack of the influ

to move the bowels, such aa Castor Oil
or a pill made up of May-apple, leaves
of aloe and root of jalap, to be had at
any drug store, and called Dr. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets.
The svstem should be bnilt nr bv tha
use of a good iron tonic, such as "Iron
tic" tablets, to be obtained at some drug
stores, or that well known blood-maker
and herbal tonic made from roots and
barks of forest trees sold everywhere
as Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery. For a tonic that will freshen uo the
blood, clean the digestive tract and put
new force and vim into you, I know of
nothing better than Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery and it contains no
alcohol or narcotic so is perfectly safe
to take.

my blood was poor, I was nervous and also

"Rose Dream" Success
The operetta entitled "Rose Dream"
given by the Saturday club of this
city last Friday evening was a de
cided success from every angle. The
operetta was under the direction of
Mrs. James Chinn of this city, and
over 70 little people of this city took
part. The characters represented
fairies in the play and the scenic
work on the stage was under the
supervision of Mr. Weller, of this

"Spring Fever" and Common Sense
If a man or woman feels heavy,

headache, sour Btomach, gas, bloat
ing, coated tongue, dyspepsia all are
relieved by Foley Cathartic Tablets.

ever tried." Sold Everywhere.
