It to happens that a "Main jMrret ' newspaper editor m Nebraska, Frank Harrison by name, by some quaint turn of politics has been made the commissioner in charge of the American exhibit at the Brazilian centennial exposition, which opens in Kto de Janeiro next fccptcmbcr. Job List Is Low. Mr. II.irriioii Has an appropriation of $l,0U0,MH) to work with. He ex pects to spend only a small fraction of this amount. t lie was assured by various dignitaries, job hunters and otherwise, that he must have a stall of several hundred executive assist ants, technical experts, research work ers, trade attaches, etc., to do his work properly. Up to date Mr. Har rison has employed six men and a , (.tenoRraphcr. VV'hen the office is rushed he "pitches in" and does his own "stenonginR," as he calls it, his own envelope-addressing and other odd jobs that his newspaper ex perience taught him how tec do. Cuts Hughes Bequest. T "The State department sent the Nebraska editor a demand for $10,000 in connection with the exposition pre parations a few days ago. He coun tered with a demand for an itemiza tion of the sums to be spent. When ' it was received he sent this word to one of Secretary Hughes' assistants: ' ; "That work can be done for $2,50.' ''without any trouble at all. Come over here and" I'll show you how to do it." The State department digni tary did not come, but accepted the .f inn wittinnt further narlevinsr. Sev eral1 thousand nercniDtorv demands have been made upon Mr. Harrison from senators, representatives, poli ticians of high and low degree for ''jobs" within his jurisdiction. He f i always asks: "Docs your candidate answer: "Yes. They will fit in the in Pin snlendidlv." He reolics to that: "Well, the Brazilians speak not Spanish, but modified Portuguese. Uut there are not going to be any . jobs here for anybody anyway." Makes Big Coupe. " "The biggest coup of this econo mist, from the prairies has been to make the regular employes in the va . rious departments do the work of I preparing the specialized exhibits for him. No outside aid has been need- ed. For instance, the Department ' ot Agriculture has made the plans for the agricultural exhibit; the bu reau of mines for the mineral exhibit, v" etc. The routineer politician would have found all this work a fallow field for special appointments for his -1 henchmen. ; "All of this is merely a homely, plain, common-sense illustration of what federal economy and retrench , nient really means. There is noth- ing esoteric or even scientific about -it when a genuine "irreconcilable" reaches Washington. The. man who "..wants to defeat red tape can do so, .provided he can stand the pressure brought to bear against him. In the :.'" : present case the Nebraska editor hap pens to have the confidence of Presi dent Harding and is likely to win out. Husband Wouldn't Speak to Her for Weeks, Wife Says For weeks Frank Frahm would . not talk to his wife, although they lived under . the same, roof, Mrs. ; Helen Frahm stated in" her- petition ,for divorce filed in district court. The Frahms were married in Council Bluffs in October, 1917. ' They have one child, Katheryn, 3. Mrs. Frahm charges that her hus band scolded her and said mean ' things in the presence of her friends. Frahm is a painter and earns more ."than $300 a month, she says. - Woman Nonchalant at Hairbreadth Escape rrl. May 6, At the loud report of a burned tire and the crh ci tin iiid iiU. i Mopped abruptly my conveuation wiih the sculptor Delu at the Montparnaite corner and looked up to tee a little old tui pinned and tilted on the nnt of big two-decker tramcat. A crowd quickly assembled, a at a theater, and a policeman reached for lti note book and the chauiicur rubbed hi eyes as if he bad jut come out of the ring. For a moment all was still, and then the door of the taxi opened as if by a footman and out stepped, with head erect and gracious step, a beau tifully gowned lady swathed in a magnificent fur coat. With all the appearance of emerging from a co coon, still another crejiure, tighter in figure though turn the les c br unt, followed the first. Waving a bill towards lb chauffeur to pay their fare, a ( it was the tuokt natural event in the world, these ta women showed a nonchalance in tht fact of what might eaily have been their escape from death that was indeed a pretty fight t watch. Leaving the perched over cab for those who were interested, our two Mies quietly disappeared into the reitaaurant with the same grace and ese of entering a ballroom, 1 he little event might have slipped more quickly from my mind had I not caught jutt word or two between them, and, these word were said in an unmistakable American accent.

SCIENCE TELLS A REASON WHY Are you one of those whose diet consists principally of meat-soups white bread, ' ; meats of various kinds, fish, potatoes, tinned fruits and - vegetables, pies and cakes ? Then read what science , ' . says in regard to why you may grow thin, weak , and emaciated, no matter how much you eat.'

This offer is good for five days. , - , Since the amazing discovery of Vitamines, science now shows why thousands may be weak, thin, nervous and undernourished on three or four big meals a day, while ; you may eat a much, smaller quantity of exactly the same food and by adding Vitamines to it, you may often quickly put on good firm flesh and obtain greatly increased strength and energy, provided your blood contains a sufficient quantity of oxygenated organic iron to enable you to assimilate your food properly- Without organic iron, both food and Vitamines are absolutely useless, us your body cannot change lifeless food matter into living cells, flesh, muscle, bone and tissue unless you have plenty of oraanic iron in your i . blood. Organic iron takes up oxygen from yourhings. This oxygenated organic iron unites-with "your, digested food as it is absorbed into your blood like fire unites with coal or wood and by so doing it creates tremendous power and energy. Without. organi iron in your blood your foodmerely passes through your body without doing you any good, . i, . . , 1 ' - Blood examinations by physicians all over the coun try have shown that an enormous amount of people are deficient in hemoglobin or iron content in the blood stream, and this is often the real underlying cause of a thin, emaciated; weak, nervous, run-down condi ' tiou and it is for this reason that thousands of people may take Vitamines without obtaining results. It is not the fault of the Vitamines, but it is the fault of your blood. Therefore, in practically every case where Vitamines are necessary, organic iron is also necessary. - fc . ,-v; - For centuries scientists tried in vain to pro- -duceormnic iron; to supply the alarming in- . 1 crease in iron deficiency in the blood cauaed ' -by refined foods arid improper method, of lit- inK. ac ia.se me proDiem was soivea bo mat you may now obtain pare organic iron from any drogrist under the name of " Nutated Iron," which is ready for immediate absorp tion and assimilation by the blood the moment it enters the system. , If you merely wish to'gain greater strength, energy, vigor and endurance, we recommend that yon take Nuxated Iron only. DO NOT TAKE VITAMINES UNLESS YOU WISH YOUR WEIGHT INCREASED up to what a person snouia normally weign. we lo not claim, however, that Vitamines will put flesh on everybody. Some people are naturally too thin and will probably remain so in spite of Vitamines and everything else. Those whose meals consist principally of meat-soups, white Dread, meats of various kinds, fish, potatoes, tinned fruits and vege tables, pies and cakes are likely to suffer from nnder-nourishment and a weakened physical condition due to a deficiency of both Vita mines end Organic Iron, no matter how much they eat, and in such cases both Vitamines and Nuxated Iron should be tried.

It is often remarkable what an astonish ing difference it makes in a person's appear ance to round-out face and figure with a few pounds of good firm flesh. It is often equally surprising what a tremendous amount of pep, vigor, force and enersrv a little more nxveen- ated organic iron will give a person whose oiooa is aettcient in this magic-like substance. Over four million people are using Nuxated Iron annually, their experience proving that it increases the strength and endurance of weak, nervous, run-down people, in many cases in two weeks' time.
