"Keep Yovr on the Clock" Final Week Only Four Days More Take Your Choice of any suit that pleases now at $1 n.oo 10; Any Palm THE President Gives Watch to Captain Aspinall New York, Aug. 24. In recognition of his services in rescuing five sailors of the wrecked steamship Oklahoma more than a year ago, Captain William T. Aspinall, of the steamship Gregory, received to day a gold watch and compass as the gifts of Eresident "Wilson. The gifts were sent to England and thence to the British consul in New York, who presented them to Captain Aspinall.

The Oklahoma was wrecked at sea not far from New York, January 4, 1914. Two of the officers of the steamer Gregory who Jumped Into the sea and rescued some of the Oklahoma's sailors received binoculars from the President. These men have since been killed in the war. "Giants" Eat Iron to Get Strength to Win Physicians say efficiency, of baseball team is astonishingly increased by organic iron. It also quickly builds up pale, nervous rundown people and gives the system greatly increased power to transform food into living matter blood, brawn and nerve force.

Did you ever put wood of coal Into a stove or grate, start the fire and then shut off the air (draught) and see it smolder then finally go out? Fuel cannot burn without oxygen. Neither can your body transform food into living matter blood, brawn and nerve fore'e without in your blood and your blood cannot carry oxygen without iron; hence iron is very basis of great strength and power. There should be one part of iron to every 230 of red corpuscles. "i It has been estimated that over seventy per cent, of our women and half our men are more or less anaemic lack of iron in the blood. This is such a vital matter between life and death that nature has fixed a dozen alarm bells and gongs to go off and warn you of your impending danger when the iron runs too low in your blood yet most people go along and do not heed these warning bells and gongs until it is too late.

That nervous, weakened, run down condition; those fits of melancholy and the the great nervous irritability that causes you to "fly all to pieces" on the slightest provocation; those restless lights; pains across the back; frequent headaches; that profuse perspiration inside your hands; that nervous constipation or indigestion accompanied by pale, anaemic symptoms are nothing in the world but your starving blood crying out for iron, iron, more Iron. German physicians have long recognized the great value of iron in creating strength, power and endurance and the sturdy Teuton soldiers are to day fed on a diet as rich as possible in iron. The "Giants" and famous athletic teams where, great strengh and endurance are required have been put on a met ncn in iron. nas triea to suppiy me ae 1 mand for iroti by putting it into a great variety of food you eat, still there are thousands of people who do not get enough or at least are unable to assimilate it in' sufficient quantities, and they therefore quickly become nervous and run down. This is especially true of women owing to the great strain nature has placed upon them at certain periods.

In such cases additional iron must be supplied. This Is best accomplished by eating (or Jtaking) two five grain tablets of Tiuxated iron three times a day with or immediately after your meals. It quickly gives most surprising physical and mental power. One who has never tried it can hardly realize what great strength and endurance can be i obtained by this simple treatment. Be sure to get Nuxated Iron as the older forms of ignotganic iron often upset the stomach and are not assimilated by the blood and therefore they sometimes do more harm than good.

But with the newer iron preparations all this has been overcome. Nuxated iron for example is not only readily assimilated and quickly makes plenty of rich, pure blood, but it Is within itself a valuable stomach remedy, giving greatly increased power to digest food by its wonderfully revitalizing action on the pneumograstic or great stomach nerve. E. Sauer, M. D.

NOTE: The publication of the above was authorized by the Public Health Laboratories. It is desired to instruct weak, nervous people how to regain renewed health, and vigor without the use of stimulating medicines, narcotic drugs or liquor. The nuxated iron referred to by Dr. Sauer can be obtained from Croll Keller and other leading druggists in our city. Adv.

Secretary McAdoo, of the Treasury, yesterday announced through the Treasury Department from his summer home at North Haven, that he would meet the British Order in Council declaring cotton absolute contraband by depositing, if necessary, 130,000,000 in Southern reserve banks, at Richmond, Atlanta and Dallas, to enable them to assist in nancing the cotton crop.

Mr. McAdoo is convinced that there is no cause for alarm, and that local institutions are prepared to do their utmost to prevent a disastrous dumping of cotton on a falling market. He is prepared, he said, to deposit this cotton money without interest, and he believes it could be loaned to farmers at not more than 6 per cent, on cotton warehouse certificates. "Such said the DeDartment's statement on the subject, referring to Mr. McAdoo's plan to charge no interest on the Government deposits, justified" by the unusual situation respecting cotton caused by the European war.

He considers it his duty to use every available means In his power to help the cotton producer of the South, as it Is a matter or economic importance to the entire nation that tnose wno nave pruuuceu ine conon crop shall have a fair opportunity to dispose of it In an orderly manner and not be forced, through inability to market their cotton gradually, to sell it at sacrifice prices.
