So three cheers for that. It Never Pays AND here's another item of good cheer.

Beverly Hills, Calif. IRON AND NERV MONOXIDE AND NEB Iron Is. heavy, but that Isn't the reason It steadies the nerves. A wee dash of It, approximately one-fourth of a grain a day, Is essential for normal nu trition. It begins to be evident now that some thing else is es sential, as well as sufficient Iron In the Intake, to Insure absorp tion of the Iron and Its utiliza tion in the body Present Indica tions are that the something else Is vitamin B. Some great doctor or medical teaober of the last century conceived the plausible Idea that "neuralgia Is the cry of a nerve lor netter nour ishment." One of the familiar complaints of women with simple hypochromic anemia or secondary anemia Is neu ralgia. Iron enters Into the composition of hemoglobin, the coloring matter of the red blood corpuscles, and the function of hemoglobin Is to carry oxygen from the lungs to the cells of the body. The hemoglobin does this by forming a weak chemical combination with oxygen, but the cells of the body have a stronger affinity for oxygen, so they seize It from the blood and trade off carbon dioxide for It the carbon dioxide has a stronger affinity for hemoglo bin than oxygen has. This Is very simple and clear, isn't It. That Is. so far as the respiration or Inter change of oxygen and carbon dioxide In the tissues Is concerned. The real problem Is to explain how the dick ens the hemoglobin manages to let go of Its load of carbon dioxide when It gets back to the lungs with It and takes on a fresh load of oxy gen. Do you know, I've tried and tried, far, far into the night, but never even approached a solution of this puzzle. If I ever do hit upon fairly rational explanation for It I'm going to knuckle down and fin ish "Our Own Physiology." However, there Is no mystery about the way Insufficient Iron accounts for loss of nervous stability. If there Is a deficiency of iron In the hemo globin, rather a deficiency of hemo globin, the blood can carry less oxy gen to the cells of the body. Man About Manhattan By GEORGE TUCKER NEW YORK. This la au Incred ible story. It 1 almost too melo dramatic to be true. But It has oeen verified. And It happened In New York, to reaj, live people. It Is not Just some t hi n g ,n Imaginative fic tion writer thought up: One day a young man pre sented himself before the head of one of Now York's smartest Jewelry houses. GEORGE TUCKR "I have here a very unusual pearl," he aald, "and I am anxious to get another to match It. for my wife. I got this In India last September." The Jeweler took the pearl and examined It carefully. It waa Indeed a curious atone. "I never saw one Just like this," the gem expert ad mitted. "Yes," said the young man. "That's why I want another to match It. My wife la crazy about It, and I want Ita twin for her birthday." Again the specialist examined the pearl. It was blsck and In the center was a small crescent. Just like an eye. "I can't promise you anything, but well try. How much will you pay for It?" "Oh. I don't know I picked that up for a song, for 2,000. I'll go as much as S5.000. if It's a duplicate of this one," So the young man gave his ad dress, his references, and went away. Meanwhile, this world famous house Instructed Its agents, here and abroad to search for black pearl with a tiny crescent eye. Weeks went by. Then one day the man called: "Any luck? . . . "Nothing yet." waa the reply, "but we are leaving nothing unturned. ' And. like that, they met with suc cess. Brilliant success. "We have it." cried the Jeweler into the trans mltter. "Our agent In Cairo found the perfect match same weight, same crescent. It is the twin of tho pewrl you own." The young man was frankly de lighted. 'Marvelous." he exulted. "Marvelous 1 When may I have It?" "In about three weeks. I think.' . . . "And what is this going U cost me?" demsnded the excited client. "That's Just it." snld the Jeweler. "It's a strep price, but we are un able to do any better. The owner demands 15.000." . . . "Whewi" whistled the purcsser. "That's a lot of money. Still, it's for my wife, snd ;he shall hve It. It's a df:. Wherefore the Jewelrr cabled his representatives In Cairo to cloae the deal at once and forward the pearl Seventeen days later It arrived. But when the triumphant Jeweler telephoned his client that good man could n.'t be found. They ransacked New York without success, it was as if the earth had simply swallowed him.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Dew of Sahara I have enjoyed ten times the price of your booklet "Save Tour Skin" Just from use of the Dew of Sahara you described in It, for people who suffer from dry, Itchy Irritable skin. It keeps my skin soft and comfort able, even after a bath. Mrs. H. L.C. Answer "Dew of Sahara" Is made by agitating Into an emulsion a rounded teaspoonful powdered tra gacanth, 6 drops phenol (carbolic acid), 6 drops glycerin, 5 drops oil of Bergamott, 4 ounces olive oil. In a pint bottle filled with distilled or boiled water. Apply a few drops to the skin aa often as necessary. If druggist cannot sell pure phenol (carbolic), use Instead one ounce of S per cent phenol (carbolic acid) solution, which any druggist can sell without prescription, and an ounce less of water to fill the pint bottle.

And. finally, he realized that this pearl, with the crescent eye, this "twin," was the same pearl that the young man had brought in months before. He realized also that he had been fleeced, for though the pearl waa genuine, his agents had paid 10,000 to the young "husband's" confederates in Cairo. And the pearl Itself was worth about $4,500.

And the story of Ita conception Is a pretty good demonstration of how govern ment ought to work. For some time now, Mr. Morgen thau, who is at heart a sensitive fellow, has been disturbed by the outcry against his tax collection sys tem. Some of the outcry was un justified, for the most charming tax collectors are rarely beloved. Some of It was well supported by the facts. Of course, Mr. Morgenthau could not 'do anything about the ardent treasury new dealer and there Is one whose first words are, "let me have that fellow's tax return." when he sees an a ntl -ad ministration statement in the press. But Mr. Morgenthau was able to Jail one agent who was making a tidy fortune out of advance Inside knowledge of tax Judgments, and banish one who was indulging In such petty graft as borrowing from taxpayers whose returns he had ap proved. The same Investigation which turn ed up these Instances of wrong doing also suggested to Mr. Morgen thau that the whole system waa at fault. It was too cumbrous, to dis tant and complex, particularly for the little fellow who cannot hire a Wash ington tax leech to fight a $50 Judg ment. Mr. Morgenthau promptly called In Ouy T. Helverlng, commissioner of internal revenue, and his own special assistant, . Harold N. Graves. Mr. Graves Is a tall, egg-bald, slnw spoken fellow, who has served the government for thirty years In the pos toff Ice, commerce and treasury de partments successively. At present he is the Morgenthau troubleshooter, relied on for such difficult tasks as Improving the customs system and setting up the alcohol tax units. Mr. Morgenthau suggested to Messrs. Helverlng and Graves that the treasury might tmitat the farm credit administration. Before his elevation to the treasury, he had been administrator, and had installed a decentralized mechanism there. It bad worked well, and he saw no rea son why the same decentralization could not be applied to tax collection The other two offered no objection, and It was decided to start a trial regional office In Los Angeles, with authority over all tax collection in southern California and Arizona. Two months ago, the office was establish ed, under the supervision of the trouble-shooting Mr. Graves. To date, the tax dispute rate In the Los An geles regional offices has fallen from 1,400 to 500 cases a year. Settlement have been so accelerated that It's calculated litigation in the average case will take a year less. The whole tax protest system hss been easier and more workable. In sum, the experiment has been a success, and therefore the decision has Just been made to extend the regional office mechanism until it includes the entire country. Perhaps Mr. Morgenthau has acted Just in time. Taxpayers have been growing toughy lately. j OF SINGAPORE (UP) A survey of British Malaya's natural resources, aimed principally to determine whether the country can long re- j main the world's leading tin pro- i ducer. la to be undertaken by Sir Lewis Leigh Fermor, British geolo gist. Sir Lewis has been Invited to in quire into the mineral development of he country on the Invitation of Gov. Sir Shenton Thomas. He will concern himself mainly with the tin Industry. j Malaya at present provides more ! than half the world's supplies of tin. and some engineers believe there Is only enough tin left to last another 50 years. Others believe that j Intensive prospecting will reveal I hitherto unknown sources. j Sir Lewis Is expected to give an I opinion on the desirability of in vestigating the tin reserves, and ' als0 on the need for a tin conser- J vatlon policy. Sir Lewis also Is expected to In vestigate the opportunities for iron ore mining. The iron mining In dustry at present Is almost entirely In Japanese hands and provides ' Jspan with one of her most valu sbie sources of Iron ore of more than 00 percent ferrous content. 1 It has been suggested that this Is contrary to Britain's best Inter ests, but British companies will in terest themselves In the Industry only if exceptionally large deposits csn be proved.
