No Longer a Miller;
’
There’s Good Reason
Robert W. Paris, the popular
real estate man at Decatur, has
retired from the milling business.
That is to say, he's quit hauling
grist to the mill in his trusty
flivver for his neighbors and oth
er friends. The story runs thus:
Mr. Paris frequently finds it
necessary to journey to Scottdale
on business, and he makes all
his business trips in his auto.
His neighbors, when they see him
hitching up his flivver for a trip
down S(‘uttd.ulf‘ way, often ask if
he would mind taking some corn
down to the mill for them. He
doesn't—or didn't.
Tuesday he was bouncing
merrily over the highways of De-
Kalb with a sack of corn, bound
for the Scottdale mill. It was a
fine morning and he was letting
the flivver have her head. Arrived
at the mill, he went around to the
back end of the car to gzot the
corn. It was gone. Back over the
route he went, but no trace of the
sack could he find, except for a
trail of yellow grain. And he
hasn't until yet. 5
“Never again,” he £ald Wed
nesday. ‘“l'm going to pay that
fellow for that sack of corn and
close up for good and all my
milling business.”

try have been asked to explain why they
prescribe it so extensively, and why it
‘apparently produces so much better re
‘sults than were obtained from the old
forms of Inorganic iron.
~_Extracts from some of the letters re
ceived are given below:
~_ Dr. Ferdinand King, a New York phy
slqlan and medical author, says:
~ "There can be no sturdy iron men
‘without iron. Pallor means anaemia.
Anaemia means iron deficiency. The skin
ior anaemic men and women is pale; the
flesh flabby; the muscles lack tone, the
‘brain fags and the memory fails and
they often become weak, nervous, irrita
‘ble, despondent and melancholy. When
the iron goes from the blood of women,
the roses go from their cheeks.
In the most common foods of America,
‘the starches, sufnn, table syrups, can
dies,” polished rice, white bread, soda
\crackers. biscuits, macaroni, spaghetti,
‘tapioca, sago, farina, degerminated corn
‘meal, no longer is iron to be found. Re.
fining processes have removed the iron
;of Mother Earth from these impoverish
ed foods, and sfllfi methods of home
cookery, by throwing down the waste
pipe the water in which our vegetables
are cooked are responsible for another
grave iron loss.
- Therefore, if you wish to preserve your
youthful vim and vigor—to a ripe old age,
you must supply the iron deficiency in
your food by using some form of organic
iron, just as you would use salt when
your food has not enough salt.
Dr. A. J. Newman, late police surgeon
of the city of Chicago and former house
surgeon, Jefferson Park Hospital, Chi
cago, in commenting on Nuxated Iron,
says: *“lt has been my particular duty
dyring the past six years to assist in
kéeping Chicago's five thousand blue
coats in good health and ;erlect fighting
trim, so that they would be physically
equipped to withstand all manner of
storms and the ravages of nature's ele
ments.
‘‘Recently I was prompted through an
indorsemé&nt of Nuxated Iron by Dr.
Schuyler C. Jaques vlslu;f surgeon of
St. Elizabeth's Hospital, New York, to
give it a trial. This remedy has proven
through my own tests of it to excel any
preparation I have ever used for cre
ating red blood, building up the nerves,
strengthening the muscles and correct
ing digestive disorders.”
Dr. E. Sauer, a Boston physician who
has studied widely both in this country
and in great European medical institu
tions, says: “As I have said a hundred
times over, organic iron is the greatest
of all strength builders. If people would
only take Nuxated Iron when theg' feel
weak or rundown, instead of osing
themselves with habit-forming drugs,
stimulants and alcohelic beverages, I am
convinced that in this way they could
ward off disease, preventing it becoming
organic in thousands of cases and there
by the lives of thousands might be
saved who now die every year from
pneumonia, grigpe. kidney, liver, heart
trouble and other dangerous maladies.
The real and true cause which started
their diseases was nothing more nor less
than a weakened condition brought on
by lack of iron in the blood.

““Not long ago a man came to me who
was nearly half a century old and asked
me to give him a preliminary examina
tion for life insurance. I was astonighed
to find him with a blood pressure of a
boy of 20 and as full of vigor, vim and
vitality as a young man; in fact, a
young man he really was, notwithstand
ing his age. The secret, he said, was
taking iron—Nuxated Iron had filled him
with renewed life. At 30 he was in bad
health; at 46 he was careworn and near
ly all in—now at 50, after taking Nux
ated Iron a miracle of vitality and his
face beaming with the buoyancy of
youth.
“Iron is absolutely necessar¥ to enable
your blood to change food Into living
tissue. Without it, av matter how much
or what you eat, your fecad merely pass
es through you without doing you any
good, and as a_consequence you become
weak, pale and sickly-looking, just like
‘& plant trying to grow in a soil deficient
in iron. If you are not strong or well
you owe it"to yourself to make the fol
lowing test: See how long you can work
or how far you can walk without be
coming tired. Next take two five-grain
tablets of ordinary Nuxated Iron three
times per day after meals for two.weeks.
Then test your strength again and see
how much you have gained. I have seen
dozens of nervous, run-down peopie who
were ailing all the while double their
strength and endurance and entirely rid
themselves of all symptoms of dyspep
sia, liver and other troubles in from ten
to fourteen days’' time simply b%' taking
iron in the propér form. And this after
they had in some cases been doctoring
for months without obtaining any ben
efit. But don't take the old forms of
reduced iron, iron acetate or tincture of
ircn simply to save a few cents. The
iron demanded by Mother Nature for the
red coloring matter in the blood of her
children is, alas! not that kind of iron.
You must take iron in a form that can
‘be easlly absorbed and assimilated toogo
you any good, otherwise it may prove
worse than useless. Many an athlete
and prize-fighter has won the day sim
ply because he knew the recret of great
strength and endurance and filled his
blood with iron before he went into the
affray; while many another has gone
down to inglorious defeat simply for the
lack of iron.” J

Dr. H. B. Vail, -a medical examiner,
late of the Baltimore and Columbus Hos
pitals, says: ‘“Time and again, I have
prescribed organic iron—Nuxated Iron—
and surprised patients at the rapidity
with which the weakness and general
debility were replaced by a renewed feel
ing of strength and vitality. One man
IAT years old who had practically worn ¥
hirgelf out with stimulating medicines
and nauseous concoctions came to me
recently after a month’s course of eEux
ated Iron and declared, ‘Doctor, I féel as
full of life and energy as when a boy of
21.” When you compare a product like
Nuxated Iron, which is easily ass.u..f’3¢
ed and does not injure the teeth, with
the older forms of inorganic iron, which
upset the stomach, ruined the teeth
and passed through the body without
doing any good, it is not surprising that
millions of people annually are now tak
ing Nuxated Iron and physicians every
where are prescribing it.’ .
NOTE—Nuxated Iron, whch 15 prescribed and
recommended above by physiclans in such a great
variety of cases, {8 not a patent medicine nor
secrel remedy. but ome which is well known to
‘druzxdsts and whose iron constituents are
widely prescribed by eminent physicians both
in Furope and Amerca. Unlike the older in
‘organic iron products it is easily assimilated,
‘does not injure the teeth, make them black,
‘nor upset the stomach; on the contrary, it is a
‘most potent remedy in nearly all forms of , in
digestion as well as for nervous, run-down “con
ditions. The manufacturers have such n'ed?y
confidence in “muxated iron, that they offer o

they cannot take any man or woman under 60
who lacks tron, and increase their strength 100
per cent or over in four weeks' time, provided
they have no spfou.s organic trouble. They alse .

double your strength and endurance in ten z:
time. It is dispensed in this city by ¥
