It was then that I began to despise fmy own company. My bookkeeper who has been with me a long time one day I suggested that I needed a rest and that my nerves required attention. She told me that her father had been in the state of health which I was experiencing and that he had taken Phosphated Iron. 'Look at him she said.

'He works ten hours a day and appears to be the happiest man in the world which he believes he is. he "All this happened less than a month ago. I followed the advice and look at now. Back in the harness with a smile all the while. I am feeling more fit than ever.

When I see a tired looking face the name of Phosphated Iron immediately comes in my mind. I am convinced that it is converting many a worn out body into a life rich in thought, ambition and enthusiasm." Special Notice To insure physi cians and patients receiving the genuine Phosphate Iron we have put up in capsules only so do not allow dealers to substitute pills or tablets, insist on the genuine in capsules only. For sale in Harrisburg by George A. Gorgas, 16 North Third street, and P. R.

R. Station. Profits and Prices Profits may be considered from two angles: 1st Their effect on prices; 2nd As a return to investors. When profits are small as compared with sales, they have little effect on prices. Swift Company's profits are only a fraction of a cent per pound on all products sold, and if eliminated entirely would have practically no effect on prices.

Swift Company paid 10 per cent dividends to over 20,000 stockholders out of its 1917 profits. It also had to build extensions and improvements out of profits; to finance large stocks of goods made necessary by unprecedented requirements of the United States and Allied Government and to provide protection against the day of declining markets. Is it fair to call this profiteering: Swift Company, S. A. Local Branch, Seventh North Sts, Harrisburg, Pa.
