The Soldier's Funeral.

Charlotte is becoming sadly fa

taking iron in the proper form. And
this after they had in some cases been
doctoring for months without obtaining
any benefit. But don't take the oia
forms of reduced iron, iron acetate or
tincture of iron simply to save a few
cents. You must take iron in a form
that can be easily absorbed and assimi
lated like nuxated iron if you want it
to do you any good, otherwise it may
prove worse than useless. Many an ath
lete or prize-fighter has won the day
simply because they knew the secret of
great strength and endurance and filled
his blood with iron before he went into
the affrav, while many another has gone
down to inglorious defeat simply for the
lack of iron.
NOTE. Nuxated Iron, recommended abora by
Dr B Sauer, is one of the newer organic iron com
pounds. Unlike the older inorganic 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 indigestion, as well as for nervous, run
down conditions. The manufacturers have such great
confidence in Nuxated Iron that they offer to forfeit
$100 00 to any charitable institution if they cannot
take any man or woman under 60 who lacks iron
and increase their strength 100 per pent, or over in
four weeks time provided they have no 6erious or
ganic trouble. They also oer to refund your money

Only a Brakeman.
Folowing a railway accident re
cently, there was great relief in of
ficial circles when the report was
made that only a brakeman had
been killed. Only a brakeman!
And there were hundreds of others
waiting to fill his shoes.
Only a brakeman! His name was
not given in the telegraphic report
of the accident. He had not made a
name to which the world would pay
tribute. There were only a few
friends who knew him in the rail
way Y. M. C. A. and a brother and
sister in Russia. Home, family,
friends he had left in the land of
oppression to come to America, the
country of opportunity. Alone, ig
norant, untrained in American ways,
he was only a brakeman in the of
ficial report telling of his death.
Only a brakeman! Yet it is such
as he who are moving our freigh,
trucking the meat that supplies our
tables, hauling the coal that heats
our homes, bringing the milk with
which we feed our babies. Standing
on top of their freight cars, leaning
against the wind with the dust of
the reserts in their faces, the roar
of the engines in hteir ears, and the
grime of the nations of their hands,
wherever you find cars, engines,
freight, soot, danger, there you will
find the brakeman, toiling sleepless-
ly, hopefully, uncomplainingly, with
death stalking ever at his side, to
give up comforts and make our
homes happy. Yet when the car
ronnlers ninch him within their
giant jaws or the wrecked train
crushes out his life beside the rail
way track, the reports that the pub
lic reads record the death of only a
brakeman.
THE IOG
P. C. Barker ,of Greensboro died
Sunday morning in a hospital at Mt.
Airy, the result of his skull being
fractured when he was thrown from
an automobile. He was 38 years old
and unmarried, was an active work
er in religious causes and when he
received the fatal injury was en
route to a sunrise prayermeeting.

(Our Dumb Animals.)
There are approximately 3 000
dogs in the various departments of
j the German army. They have been
trained by the German Red Cross
Dog Society.
These war dogs have learned
to obey commands given both by
word of mouth and by pistol shots.
They act as camp guards, trench
sentries, scouts, and aids on the
battlefiels. The sronger are used
i for hauling.
The French use many dogs for
these same purposes. They also
found the dogs of the greatest ser
vice for drawing sleighs carrying
supplies through the mountain
snows of the Vosges wThen there
seemed no other method of trans
portation. After the snows melt
the dogs draw heavy loads up the
steep grades on a narrow gauge
light railway.
Some of these dogs have been
so trained that in traversing a field
i after a battle they wholly ingnore a
dead soldier but bark loudly when
they discover one wounded, return-
i ing to their gennels for assistancs
and leading the way back to the in
jured man. Surgeons and strecher- j
bearers follow them back. , i
Not all of the most valuable
dogs in this present war have been
of high degree. Thousands have
just been "plain dogs." It's wThat
he can do, not whence he came,
that makes a dog or a man worth
while.
To mount guard in a trench at
listening posts for long hours at a
stretch, ignoring danger, alert every
moment this is what many dogs
are doing fo rthe armies they serve.
Some dogs have saved whole com
panies, especially in fogs, revealing
by their growling the nearness of
the enemy.
Perhaps when this war is over
and our American dog-haters have
learned the part these faithful an
imals' have played in serving the
cause of humanity and the various
countries which have employed
them, there will be less demand on
tjie part of these people for the
dog's extermination. It was out of
a long past age that one deemed
himself answering the basest insult
by the exclamation: "Is thy servant
a dog!"
LEMONS BRING OUT
THE HIDDEN BEAUTY
Make this lotion for very little
cost and just see
for yourself.
. By all means, girls, prepare a
lemon lotion to keep your skin flex
ible and young looking. You will
soon realize that true loveliness does
not mean the powedry-look of wax
en colorlessness of some hot-house
flower, but is typified by the velvety
softness of your skin, your peach
like complexion and rosy-white
hands.
At the cost of a small jar of or
dinary cold cream one can prepare a
full quarter pint of the most won
derful lemon skin softener and com
plexion beautifier, by squeezing the
juice of two fresh lemons into a bot
tle containing three ounces of or
chard white. Care should be taken
to strain the juice through a fine
cloth so no lemon pulp gets in, then
this lotion will keep fresh for
months. Every woman knows that
lemon juice is used to bleach and re
move such blemishes as freckles,
sallowness and tan, and is the ideal
ekin softener, smoothener and beau
tifier. Just try it! Get three ounces of
orchard white at any pharmacy and
two lemons from the grocer and
make up a quarter pint of this
sweetly fragrant lotion and mas
sage it daiiy into the face, neck,
arms and hands. It should natur
ally help to whiten, soften, freshen
and bring out the roses and hidden
beauty of any skin. It is, simply
marvelous to smoothen rough, red
hands. adv
AN IDEAL
LIME TREATMENT
for those suffering from chronic or acute
pulmonary and bronchial troubles, or
coughs or colds, is
ECKMAN'S ALTERATIVE

turbing digestion. An efficient tonic and
