52,000 PERSONS ENLISTED
IN NAVAL RESERVE FORCE
(U S. Official Bulletin.)
The navy department authorizes the
following:
A naval reserve force of approxi
mately 25,(100, almost half as large In
numbers as the regular navy was a
year ago, lias been created in the past
few months.
At the last complete report 19,347
men and 725 women had been cnllsed
and about 3,500 officers enrolled,' and
the new enlistments in the last ten
days make the total about 25,000. This
force 'includes the fleet naval reserve,
the naval reserjre, the naval auxiliary
reserve, the naval reserve flying corps,
the volunteer naval reserve, the naval
.isl defense reserve, and the women
.listed for special duty.
Many College Men Join.
Hundreds of sailors, fishermen, and
ifaring men have been enlisted, and
yachtsmen, motor-boat owners, and
hers with some experience have
joined the coast defense reserve. This
seems to ha ve a : pedal attrac
lion for college men, nearly every
college and nniversty in the'east and
many in the west and south furnish
ing recru'its, Vale, Harvard, Prince
ion, Cornell, and Brown being among
those most largely represented. Near
ly all the members of one entire class
from Cornell went to Newport and
enlisted as seamen.
Most of the men in the reserve will
be required for the coast patrol fleet,
which includes mine sweepers and
mine layers submarine chasers, pa
trol boats of various classes, and will
• nlirace hundreds of vessels required
for coast defense. In addition the
reserve will furnish men for guard
duty at navy yards, magazines, store
houses, and other points, and for the
crews of merchantmen taken over by
the government.
725 Women in Reserve.
Nearly all the 725 women enlisted
are engaged in clerical duties and rank
as yeomen. Among them are several
chief yeoman, engaged in special work.
One is an expert on finer prints, and
is employed in the identification sec
tion. Another, experienced 'in con
tracts and specifications ,is employed
in the bureau of supplies and ac
counts. There are a number of women
Iron 7s Greatest of Jill Strength
Builders, Says Doctor
JR Secret of the Great, Endurance and Power of Jfthletes
Ordinary Nuxated Iron Will Make <
Delicate, Nervous, Rundown Peo
ple 200 Per Cent. Stronger in
Two Week’s Time in
Many Cases.
NEW VOItK, N. Y.—Most people
foolishly seem to think they are go
ing to get renewed health and
strength from some stimulating inedi
cine secret nostrum or naracotic drug,
said Hr. Sauer, u Specialist who has
studied widely both in this country
and Europe when, us u matter of fact,
real anil true strength can only come
from tho food you cat. But people
often fail to get the strength out of
their food because they haven’t
enough iron in their blood to enable
it to change food Into living matter.
From their weakened, nervous condi
tion they know something is wrong
but they can’t tell what, so they gen
erally commence doctoring for stom
ach, liver or kidney trouble or sym
ptoms of some other ailment caused
by the lack of iron In (he blood. This
thing may go on for years, while the
patient suffers untold agony. If you
are not strong or well, you owe it to
yourself lo make the following test:
See how long you can work or how
far you can walk' without becoming
tired. Next lake two five-grain
tablets 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 while, double their
strength and endurance and entirely
get rid of nil symptoms of dyspepsia,
liver and other troubles in from ten
.o fourteen days’ time simply by tak
ing iron in the proper form. And this
after they had in some cases been
doctoring for months without obtain
ing any benefit. But don’t take the
old 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 lie easily absorbed and
assimilated like nuxated Iron if you
want it to do \ ou any good, other
wise it may prove worse than useless
Many an athlete or prize-fighter has
won the day simply because lie knew
the secret of great strength and en
durance and filled his blood with iron
before lie went into the affray, while
many another lias gone down to. in
glorious defeat simply for the lack
of iron.
Note.—Nuxatid Iron recommended
above by Dr. Sauer is not a patent
medicine nor secret remedy, but uni'
which is well known to druggists and
whose iron constituents is widely pre
scribed by eminent physicians every
where. Unlike (lie older inorganic
Iron products, it is easily assimilated,
does not injure the teeth, make them
black, nor upset (he stomach; on the
contrary, it is a most potent remedy,
in nearly all forms of indigestion, as
well as for nervous, run-down condi
tions. Tiro 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 women under CiO
who lack# iron and increase their
strength 200 per cent or over in four
weeks’ time provided they have no
serious organic trouble. They also
offer to refund your money if it does
not at least double your strength and
endurance in ten (lays' time. It is
dispensed in this city by I .omen Bros.,

and all other druggists.

(U S. Official Bulletin.)
The department of the interior au
thorizes the following:
At present the prices of foodstuffs
are mairing new records and purely
selfish considerations call on the
farmer for the greatest production in
ids power. Patriotic motives make
the same demand, and ttie project
farmers arc responding in earnest to
the government's call to put In culti
vation the largest possible acreage.
They are meeting the shortage in
labor by unifying by districts all farm
labor, equipment, anil stock, with the
view fo transferring the same from
place to place in order to cover the
largest possible area with the least
possible waste of time anil effort.
Merchants, bankers, and others are
raising funds to guarantee the notes
of needy farmers for the purchase
of seed, supplies, and farm equip
ment, and some state governors have
appointed committees to assist in the
