Today the amount has been doubled, not only on account of the higher price of wood, leaden plates, wax, etc., but also because of the increase in the number of coffins needed for paupers, for burials at the expense of the com munes are more and more numer ous."

Ringwalt, C. H. English and John W. Welch. Although this charter has been issued but a few days, large mem bership donations have already been received. The Omaha Humane so ciety gave $50, Mrs. DeF. Richards $50, Mr. DeF. Richards $25, Mrs. George A. Joslyn $25 and many others from $25 down to $1. At last the war horse has won rec ognition for his invaluable services. Through the organization of the American Red Star animal relief ani mals in the United States army will receive similar care in war to that afforded humans by the American Red Cross. The Red Star was organ ized at the request of Secretary of War Newton D. Baker, who wrote to Dr. W. D. Stillman, president of the American Humane association, sug gesting the formation of such a so ciety. Rapid Development. The Red Star is being developed rapidly by the organization of branches and auxiliaries in all the large cities throughout the country. Many prominent horsemen and sev eral horse breeders' associations have endorsed the work. The Shire club of Chicago recently gave $500 to the Red Star. Taft, Roosevelt, Major General Wood and other prominent men have heartily endorsed the move ment. Dr. Stillman is director gen eral of the movement, which has its national headquarters in Albany, N. Y. Horses are the greatest sufferers in the poison gas attacks which keep the men in the trenches constantly on the alert. When the alarm gongs sound through the various sectors, warning the soldiers that the outposts have detected gas, masks are taken from their depositories and the soldiers are protected from the fatal white c'otids which roll over their heads and swirl through the trenches. Little Protection for Horses. But for the animals there is little protection. A few gas masks have been tried out on horses, but their use is not general, and when the sol dier sees the'gas approaching he bids his four-footed comrade farewell, for For Gray Hair MO matter how gray, streaked or faded your hair may be, one to three applications of Orlex the Gold Bond Gray Hair Treatment will make it light brown, dark brown or black, whichever shade you desire.

Among the curious facts which the American soldiers have noticed in the European war is the eagerness of cavalry mounts for battle and their reluctance to leave the battlefield after the charge. The average war horse will chafe and stamp with im patience while waiting for the order to advance and at the signal will dash forward like a grayhound released from the leash, full of fire and fury and neighing wildly. When he ar rives at the ranks of the enemy he rears, striking and biting savagely at the opposing horses and trampling down the infantry. Valley of Death. If his rider falls the horse will dash along with his fellows and crash into the ranks of the enemy. Participants of the far-famed charge of the Light Brigade have related how scores of riderless horses rushed down "the valley of death" right up to the ; mouths of the Russian guns and gal-1 loped back to safety with the shat tered remnant of the brigade. Half a dozen horses raced neck and neck with Lord Alfrtl Paget, who roda in advance of the line, so eager were they to get at the enemy. A cavalryman will tell you that his mount knows as much of military as he does himself The bugle calls are all familiar to the experienced horse and instances have been noted when the rider's mistake was rectified by the horse, who went through the ma neuvers correctly, regardless of the soldier's contrary command. The American army will be given similar aid by the American Red Star animal relief, an organization founded at the request of Secretary of War Baker. Already the Red Star has accomplished good work by provid ing supplies at the numerous army camps in this country. Thousands of copies of the "First Aid" leaflets, deal ing with the care of the army horse, were supplied at the request of army officers. Experienced agents of the Red Star have visited camps and of fered suggestions for the better care of the animals detailed at the camps. Dr. William O.

Name.. .......,., Street., M Mi City State These City Physicians Explain Why They Prescribe Nuxated Iron To Make Healthier Women and Stronger, Sturdier Men NOW BEING USED BY OVER THREE MILLION PEOPLE ANNUALLY By enriching: the blood and creating thousands of new red blood cells, it often quickly transforms the flabby flesh, toneless tissues, and pallid cheeks of weak, anaemic men and women into a glow of health. In creases the strength of delicate, nervous, run-down folks in 10 days' time in many instances. IT ia conservatively estimated that over three million people annually In this coun try alone are taking Nuxated Iron. Such astonishing results have been reported from its use both by doctors and laymen, that a number of physicians in various parts of the country have been asked to explain why they prescribe it so extensively, and why it apparently produces so much better results than were obtained from the old forms of inorganic iron. Extracts from some ot the letters received are given below. Dr. Ferdinand King, a New York Physician and Medical Author, says: "Tnere can be no vigorous iron men without iron. Pallor means anaenla. " An ae mia means iron de ficiency. The skin of anaemic men and women Is pale; the flesh flabby. The mm clea lack tone, the brain faga and the memory fails and they b ecome weak. nervous, irri table, despond- Dr. Ferdinand Kinff, New ent and melan- York physician and Medical choly. When Author, the iron goes from the blood of women the roses go from their cheeks. "In the most common foods of America, the starches, sugars, table syrups, candies, pol ished rice, white bread, soda crackers, bis cuits, macaroni, apaghettl, tapioca, sago, fa rina, degerminated eornmeal, no longer is iron to be found. Refining processes have re moved the iron of Mother Earth from these impoverished foods, and silly methods of home cookery, by throwing down the waste pipe the water In which our vegetables are cooked, is responsible for another grave iron loss. "Therefore you should supply the iron de ficiency in your food by UBing some form of organic iron, just as you would use salt when your food has not enouch salt." Dr. A. J. Newman, late Police Surgeon of the City of Chicago and former House Sur geon, Jefferson Park Hospital, Chicago, in commenting on Nuxated Iron, aays: "It has been my partic ular duty dur ing the past six year to assist in keeping Chicago's five thousand blue coats in good health and per fect fish ting trim so that they would be p hysieally equip ped to withstand all manner of storms and the ravage, of na ture elements. -"Recently I Or.

Jaques, Visiting Surgeon of St Eliiabeth's Hospital. New York, to give it a trial. This remedy has proven through my own tests to excel any preparation I have ever used for creating red blood, building up the nerves, strengthening the muscles and correcting di gestive disorders. Dr. E. Sauer, a Boston physi cian, who has studied both in in great Euro pean Medical I n s 1 1 1 u tions says: "As I have said a hundred times over organic iron is the greatest of all strength build ers. If people pr. E. Sauer, a Boston would only take physician who has studied Nuxated Iron n Great European Medical when they feel Institutions, weak or run- . down, instead of dosing themselves with habit-forming drugs, stimulants and alcohol ic beverages, I am convinced that there are thousands who might readily build up their red blood corpuscles, increase their physical energy and get themselves into a condition to ward off the millions of disease germs that are almost continually around us. It is surprising how many people suffer from iron deficiency and do not know it. "If you are not strong or well you owe it to yourself to make the following test: See how long you can work or how far yon can walk without becoming tired. Next take 2 6 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 people who were aWnc all the while increase their strength and en durance in from ten to fourteen days' time while taking iron in the proper form. And this, after they had in some cases been going on for months without getting benefit from anything. Many an athlete and- prise-fighter has won the day simply because he knew the secret of great strength and endurance which comes from having plenty of iron in the blood, while many another has gone down in inglorious defeat aimilr tot lack of iron." Dr. Schuyler C.

"I do not make a practice of recommending advertised medicinal prod ucts, but I have found Nuxated Iron so T"-s tent in nervous, run-down conditions, tht I believe all should know of it The men and women of today need more iron in their blood than was the esse twenty or thirty years ago. This because of the demineralized diet which now is served daily in thousands of homes and also because of the demand for greater resistance necessary to offset the greater number of health hazards, to be met at every turn." Dr. James Francis Sullivan, formerly phy sician of Bellevue Hospital (Outdoor Dept), N. Y., and the Westchester County Hospital, said : "I have strongly emphasized the great necessity of physicians making blood exam inations of their weak, anaemic, run-down patients. Thousands of persons go on year after year suffering from physical weakness and a highly nervous condition due to lack of sufficient iron in their red blood corpus cles, without ever realizing the real and true cause of their trouble. Without iron in your blood your food merely passes through the body, somewhat like corn through an old mill with rollers so wide apart that he mill can't grind. "But in my opinion you can't make strong, vigorous, successful, sturdy iron men by reeding them on metallic iron. The old forms of metallic iron must go through a semi-digestive process to transform them into or ganic iron-Nuxated Iron before they are so ready to be taken up and assimilated by the human system.
