WILSON SPEAKS
AT SAINT PAUL
public of St. Paul and Minneapolis on his arrival here in connection with
his nation wide speaking tour. Public euthusUumvwns intense during the
period of his stay and it Is doubtful if lie has reccjfcd a heartier welcome
fioin tile i»eople at any point visited on the trip.
The arrival of the presidential special was greeted by an imrpenso
crowd and Mr. Wilson was unable to leave the train for several minutes
owing to the jam of cheering people. After reaching the waiting automobile
which conveyed him to the capital building, where lie addressed the state
was unable to move for1 several minutes.
Governor Burnquist and the mayors of St. Paul and Minneapolis met
cities. *
that the action to he taken by America on the peace question is being watched
by it,.- world with an intensity scarcely apprec iated in the United States.
Mr. Wilson declared that the world will not settle down to actual peace
until it learns what part America is to play in peace. This attitude, he said,
is 1 vgely attributable to the fait that the world recognizes that America is
... nation with enough free capital to rehabilitate the world economically.
The president devoted a portion of his remarks to the living situation
and said that the high cost of living is duo largely to the world situation result
ing from war’s sacrifices and waste. The world has not yet learned what
the peace status is to he. he said, and when the peace question is finally re
s..l\cd there will be a ehange in living conditions.

Nuxatcd Iron Makes Strong
Vigorous, Iron Menr and Beautiful
Healthy Rosy Cheeked Women
Former Hospital Physician and
ical Examiner says that in three
weeks it Virtually Revitalized His
Whole System.
In a recent discourse on tlio sub
ject of iron deficiency in the blood
of American men and women Dr. H. B.
Vail, formerly Physician in the Balti
more Hospital said: "Throughout my
experience on Hospital' staffs and as
Medical Examiner. 1 have been aston
ished at the number of patients who
have vainly doctored for various dis
eases when in reality the deli
■Mto, run-don n state was simply'the
result of lack of Iron in 'he blood,
nine and again I have prescribed or
fanlo Iron—Nuxated Iron—and sur
prised patients at the rapidity with
which the woakness and general de
bility were replaced by a renewed feel
ing of strength and vitality. I took
Nuxated Iron my self to build me up
after u serious case of nervous ex
haustion. The effects were apparent
after a few days and within three
weeks it had virtually revitalized my
whole system and put me in a superb
physical condition. It Is not surpris
ing that millions of people annually
are now taking Nuxated Iron and phy
sicians everywhere are prescribing it
Dr. James Francis Sullivan, formerly
Physician of Bellevue Hospital (Out
door Dept.) New York, and the West
chester Country Hospital, says: “For
want of tron you may be an old man
at thirty, dull in intelect poor In mem
ory, nervous, Irritable sad all run
down, while at 60 or 60 with plenty
ef iron *n your blood you may still be
young In feeling, fuli of life, your whole
being brimming over with energy and
vital force.”
Former Health Commissioner Wm.
R. Kerr, of the City of Chicago, says:
Get/ That there ttnff (Nuxated Iran)
acta like magic. It certainly putt the
ginger of youth into a men.
"I am well past my throe-score years
and want to say that I believe my own
great physical activity Is due largely
today to my personal use of Nuxated
Iron, and If my endorsement shall in
duce anaemic, nervous, dun-down men
and women to take Nuxated Iron, and
receive the wonderful tonic benefits
which I have received, I shall feci
greatly gratified that I have made an
exception to my life-long rule in re
commending It. From my own exper
ience with Nuxated Iron I feel that it
Is such a valuable remedy that it
Should be used in every hospital and
.prescribed by every physiciair In this
I country.”

by Ors. Vail and Sullivan and Former
Health Commissioner Kerr, is for sale
