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.

some t hi n g ,n
Imaginative fic

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

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.
Honey.

use honey. M.. M. R.

tomato Juice or orange Juice In his

It all right In his bottle, but every
one says It sours the milk. Mrs. W.
Answer It Is all right In the
baby's milk. It does not sour the

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.

eminent can do If It cares to make
life pleasanter for the people. 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

JINGLES
Timo was when a yoke of
oxen and a cart,
Hauled all the farm produots
to the trading mart.
They were great on power
but nix on speed,
But with no reason to hurry
they filled a need.
Now those gee-haw days are
a thing of the past,
For present day needs call
for something FAST.
So the wise old farmer has
changed his ways
Being wise he depends on
trucks made by Chevro
