IT J. E. YOUNG MAY GO PRIZE-WINNING POSTER FOR MANUFACTURERS' AND PRODUCTS SHOW. AND ITS DESIGNER. LAND THE SUNDAY OREGONIAIf, PORTLAND, AUGUST 19, 1917. New Man Slated to Act as Fire Marsha!. RESULT OF TEST AWAITED Commissioner Bigelow Says Action Is Not Vet Taken, as Examina tion for Itattalion Chief Has . Not Taken Place. Indications at the City Hall point to the elimination of John E. Young, bat talion chief in the Bureau of Fire for many years, now temporarily serving as Kfcond Assistant Chief and Fire Marshal, and the naming of some new man to fjll hit present position. C. A. Bigelow, Commissioner of Public Af fairs, who has charge of this work, has made no open move as yet toward the permanent designation, although he has been at tile head of this bureau for neerly two months. There is a persistent rumor at the City Hall that Mr. Bigelow is favor able to Edward Urenfell, at present a captain, formerly a temporary battal ion chief and one of the main leaders In the recent effort of the firemen to obtain the passage by the people of a two-platoon (two shift) system dur ing the last city campaign. However, Sir. Bigelow is making no statement as to his attitude, except to ,say that he Is fctudying the situation and wants to liave the very beet man possible for the place when he makes the final ap pointment. . , Change la Indicated. ' That Mr. Bigelow intends to name pome other member of the Bureau of iFire to the position is said to be Btrongly indicated by his recent re quest of the Civil .Service Board to hold an examination for battalion chief nd his declination meantime to make permanent the appointment of Mr. Venn:?. To this, Mr. Bigelow replies that he is simply waiting to see what liappens at this examination as to who passes. ' There is no reason why Mr. Bigelow eoma not make the permanent appoint ment of Chief Young as Fire Marshal, did he desire to do so, as the position in vacant. Jay Stevens, who was first appointed Fire Marshal by H. R. Albee, tiien Mayor and Commissioner of Pub lic Safety, is now in San Francisco sis chief of the Coast bureau of fire prevention of the underwriters, and his resignation as fire marshal was ac cepted before Mr. Albee left office; as a. chief, he is on leave of absence for a. year from June 30, 1917. Chief Young; la Fire Marshal. Meanwhile, Chief Youngr is acting as Fire Marshal, but with the original Xorce, with but one exception missing. "Walter S. Creech, who was clerk in the fire prevention division when Jay Stev ens organized that work and made a remarkable showing in reducing fires in Portland, is now with the North western Mutual Life Insurance Com pany as its cashier here, and former Captain Groce, who, with Captain' Rob erts, formed the arson squad, is doing special investigation work for the un derwriters out of San Francisco. SALARIES ARE AT ISSUE till ,.uri,Ul,S ALL UbSlUULS U GETTING MURK MO.BV. Commissioner Blgelovr Will Not Be Ready to Consider Increases for t at Least Ten Days Longer. 'According: to C. A. Bigelow, Commis sioner of Public Affairs, he will not be ready to proceed with the consideration of salary increases in his own bureaus sjor at least 10 days. The principal de inanda made through his office are those of the firemen, who have asked for a rise of 25 per cent and one day off in three, as against one in six, as now. Salary increases are being sought by virtually every employe on the city payrolls, and never a day passes but one or more applications are filed with the various Commissioners. They are piling up rapidly and are being held on the Council table until such lime as all of them are in and they can be considered as a whole. Mayor Baker has ordered the prep aration of a complete list of the city employes and their salary ratings for lis when he calls a special session of the Council for the consideration of petitions for increases. It will be a very serious problem for the Commis eoners to solve, for they are facing Crave, difficulties, the chief of which are loss of competent help and lack of funds. Many of the best employes in the service of the city have left or are threatening to leave unless prompt ac tion is taken in granting them more pay. Better salaries are now being paid by private firms all over the city than are being allowed by the city, and offers of more money have been made to many of the municipal servants. RESTAURANTS TO BE RATED Campaign. Against Dirty Eating Houscs Started by Health. Officer. City Health Officer Parrish is plan ning a campaign against filthy res taurants and has issued instructions to the inspectors of his bureau to check closely all eating-houses and to sup press bad practices in them. Many complaints have been lodged with him within the past few days regarding this subject. Dr. Parrish has visited a number of restaurants himself in the past few days and has observed things which he has ordered discontinued. He says that he will have all such places in spected and cards issued with their ratings for posting in conspicuous place and for publication in the news papers if necessary to obtain results.

Doctor Says Crying Need Of The Woman Of Today Is More Iron In Her Blood TO PUT STRENGTH IN HER NERVES AND COLOR IN HER CHEEKS. Any Woman Who Tires Easily, Is Nervous or Irritable, or . Looks Pale, Haggard and Worn Should Have Her Blood Examined for Iron Deficiency. Administration of Nuxated Iron in Clinical Tests Gives Most Astonishing Youthful Strength and Makes Women Look Years Younger. "There cart be no healthy, beautiful, rosy-cheeked women without iron," says Dr. Ferdinand King, a New York Physician and Medical Author. "In my recent talks to physicians on the grave and serious consequences of iron de ficiency in the blood of American women. I have strongly emphasized the fact that doctors should prescribe more organic iron nuxated iron for their nervous, run-down, weak, haggard-looking women patients. Pallor means anaemia. The skin of the anaemic woman is pale, the flesh flab by. The muscles lack tone, the brain fags and the memory fails, and often they become weak, nervous, irritable, despondent and melancholy. When the iron goes from the biood of women, the roses go from their cheeks. la the most common foods of Amer ica, the starches, sugars, table syrups, candies, polished rice, white bread, soda crackers, biscuits, macaroni, spaghetti, tapioca, sago, farina, de germi n a t e d corn- . . meal no longer is iron to be found. Refining processes have removed the iron of Mother Earth from these impover ished foods, and silly methods of home cookery, by throw ing down the waste pipe the water ir. which our vegetables are cooked are re sponsible for another grave iron loss. "Therefore, if you wish to' preserve your v n it t h f ii 1 vim and vigor to a ripe old age. you must supply the iron deficiency In your blood by using some form of organic iron. Just as you would use salt when your -food has not enough salt. "As T have said a hundred times over, organic iron is the greatest of all strength build ers. If people would only take Nuxated Iron when they feel weak or rundown, instead of dosing themselves with habit forming drugs, stimulants and alcoholic beverages I am con vinced that in this way they could ward off disease, pre venting it becoming organic in thousands of cases and thereby the lives of thousands might be saved who now die every year from pneumonia, grippe, kidney, liver, heart trouble and other dangerous maladies. The real and true cause which started their disease was nothing more nor less than a weakened condition brought on by lack of iron in the blood. "On account of the peculiar nature of woman, and the. great drain placed upon her system at certain periods, she re quires iron much more than man to help make up for the loss, . . . "Iron is also absolutely necessary to And this after they had in some cased enable your blood to change food into been doctoring for months without ob- living tisue.

But so many Amer ican women suffer from iron de ficiency with Its attendant ills phys ical weakness, nervous irritability, mel ancholy, indigestion, flabby, sag ging muscles, etc., etc. and in con- sequence of their weakened, run down condition they are so liable to contract serious and even fatal diseases, that I deein it mv dutv to advise all such to take Nuxated Iron.

NOTE Nuxated iron, which is prescribed and recommended above by physicians in such a great vari ety of cases, is not a patent medicine nor secret remedy, but one which is well known to druggists and whose iron constituents are widelv pre scribed by eminent physicians both in Europe and America. Unlike the older inorganic iron Products it is easily assimilated, does not injure the teeth, make them black, nor up set the gtomach: on the contrary, it is a most ootent remetlv In np-irlu ail forms of indigestion as well as for nervous, run-down -conditions.
