One dose of Nuxated Iron is estimated to be approximately equivalent (in or- ganic iron content) to eating one-half quart of spinach, one quart of green vegetables or half a dozen apples. It is like taking extract of beef instead of eating pounds of meat. Nuxated Iron is partially predigested and ready for almost immediate absorbtion and assimilation by the blood, while meta}- lic iron is iron just as it comes from the action of strong acids on smal] pieceg of iron filings. Over 4,000,000 people annually are using ‘Nuxated Iron. It will not in- ure the teeth nor disturb the stomach, A few doses will often commence to enrich your blood.

We have ibuilt a ship 956 feet long. It is called the Majestic, Truly, the building of the Majestis : is a great achievement. But detore| exhausting our superiatives in self- praise, let’s look~back a little. There} once was a shipbuilder named Noah— Noah’s record, as narrated in the ‘Old Testament, will never be bettered. Here’s what he did, as told in Ge! : “And God said unto ‘Noah, make thee an ark. The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cuits, and the! height of it thirty cubits.” According to the new International lncyclopedia, | the ark was 525 fect long, 871-2 feet wide, and 52 feet deep. Not so big ‘as the Majestic, which is 956 long, 100 feet wide, and 102 feet deep—but a whale of a boat when one considers Noah’s facilities, (Noah had few tools. His materials were gopher wood and pitch. Probably nobogy helped him but his sons Shem, 'Ham‘and Japeth and their wives. Yet they built a ship big enough to ‘house and supply, for'several months “two of every sort of fowls after their kind, and of cattle after their kind, and of every creeping thing of the earth after ‘his kind.” It és well to reflect; in admiring the feat of the Majestic builders, that Noah’s record stijl stands, MANDAN NEWS _| Parade of Babies | Features Program Prior to the assemblage at the Elks ‘hall nearly 100 mothers joined in the baby parade from the Palace theater.
