''., I-," ' ' Francisco Villa has boen eliminated as a military factor in Mexico and has reverted to his old methods of banditry, according to General Mur gla, commander-in-chief of the north eastern military zone, "Villa has less than 100 men and was in the vi cinity of Inde, Durango, where we re ceived our last information about him.'General Murgia said, "he is no Doctor Says Nuxated Iron Will Increase Strength of Delicate People 100 in Ten Days In many Instances Persona have snf- how Ion yon ran work or how far you j area untold afony lor years aoctortnij can walk without ln-n miiiB tired, for nervous weakness, stomach, live? or kidney disease or some other ailment when their real trouble was lack of iron la the blod. How to tell. New York, N. T. In a recent dis course Dr. E. Saner, a Boston physician Who has studied widely both in this Country and Jn great European medical Institutions, said: "If you were to make an actual blood test on all people who are ill you would probably be grpntly astonished at the exceedingly larp number who lack iron and who are 111 for no other reason than the lack of Iron. The moment Iron is supplied all their multitude of dangerous Ikymptonis disappear. Wfthout iron the blood at once loses the power to change food Into living tissue, and therefore noth ing you eat does you any good; you don't get the strength out of It Tour food merely passes through your sys tem like corn through a mill with the rollers so wide apart that the mill can't grind. As a result of this continuous Die ilood and nerve starvation, oeoole be come generally weakened, nervous and all run down and frequently develop all sorts of conditions. One Is too thin; can t and another Is burdened with unhealthy fat some are bo weak they can hardly walk; some think they have dyspepsia. Kianey or liver trouble; some ca Bleep at night, others are sleepy tired all day; some fucsy and Irritable; some skinny and bloodless, but all lark physical power and endurance. In such cases, it Is worse than foolishness to take stimulating medicines or narcotic drugs, which only whip up your fagulng vital powers for th moment, maybe nt the expense of your life later on. No matter what any en tells you. If you re not strong and well you owe It to yourself to make the folio whig test: Bee FETZER DRUG STORE BRITTAIN'S DRUG STORE Next tnk- .v- (lVe-eral:) --;bl '.s of ordinary Nuxated Iron three--times per day after meals for two weeks. Then test your strength again and see for yourself how much you have gained. I have seen dozens of nervous, run-down people who were ailing all the time double, and even triple, their BtreriR'th and endur ance and entirely get rid of their symp toms or dvspt Dsia. liver and other trou hies In from ten to fourteen days' time simply by taking inn in the proper form, and this, after they had in some rases been doctoring for months with out obtaining any benefit. You can talk as you plcnse about all the wonders wrought by new remedies, but' when you come down to hard facts there Is nothing like good old Iron to put color In your checks and good sound, healthy flesh on your bones. It Is also a great nerve and stomach strengthener and the best blood builder In the world. The only trouble was that the old forms of .inorganic Iron, like tincture of Iron. Iron acetate, etc.. often ruined peojils teeth, unset their stomachs and were not assimilated, and for these reasons they frequently did more harm than good. Rut with the discovery of the fiewer forms of ortf inlc iron all this has been overcome. Nuxatd Iron, for ex ample. Is pleasant to take, does not In jure the teeth and Is almost Immedi ately beneficial.
