There has been, he added, scme - | criticis ~ of what has been oneupto | the present, but, to be just, account | must be taken of the chaotic conditions | which exist. He had examined the | prices of the contractors and obtain- | ed some reductions, and the time was approaching when it would be possible to estimate the cost of the work of re- pair at only three times the pre-war price, owing to the fall in the coal and other necessary materials. He hoped to make favoura le contracts with Ger many for materials and thought that the proposal by Germany to construct twenty five thousand houses in the de- vastated regions would be satisfactorily arranged. Nevertheless he declared there was little chance of GGerman labour being employed in rrance nn ‘a vast scale. The work to be accomplished, he added, is superhuman and will rake time i France succeeds in reconstructing all tnis zone in *en years it will be the greaiest thing ever accomplished by the country.

Many a man is broken down and dis- couraged without havmg any actual disease inhis organs and tissues,—he has lost his grip, feels weak and ner- vous and everything looks dark. He is su?erigf from the great American disease—Neurasthenia or nerve starva- tion, due to over-work, worry, contin- ual hurry and nervous strain. The longer this continues the more certainly willit end in real disease of his organs, his nerves or his mind. Such a man should live on the simple foods. eat plenty of cooked fruit and green vegetables, sleep nine hours at night ifhe can, an hour in the afternoon and feed his starving nerves and weak, thin blood, with a good nerve and blood, food, like Nuxated Iron. Nuxated Iron con- tains & product brought to the attention of the French Academy of Medicine by the cele brated Doctor Robin, which represents the prin- cipal chemical constituent of active livingnerve force; italso contains genuine organic iron like the iron in your blood and like the iron in spinach, lentils and apples. Nuxated Iron may therefore be said to be a real merve and blood food since it supplies the principal ingredients demanded by your nerves and blood to give you strength. energy. force and endurance. It often increases the bodily and mental vigor of weak. wornout, down heart- ed. and nervous folks in two weeks’ time.
