Reader Takes Newer Form of Iron—Feels Years Younger “Six weeks ago 1 saw a special offer in ! the paper Idling how thousands of people grow old in looks and energy long before they are really old in years, because, as examinations by physicians have shown, an enormous number of people do not have enough iron in their blood. I have been taking Ntixated Iron for two weeks; the results are simply nstonnding. The roses have come back in my lips and cheeks, and l can conscientiously say that X ieel teu years younger.’* The above Is a typical hypothetical case showing the results that have been achieved by a great many people since ue started this “t atisfactlon or money back” offer on Nuxated Iron.

Reductions in the Cost of Electricity and Advances of Other Public Services in the City * Yesterday Merchants Heat & Light Company showed by actual figures that the history of electric service rates in this city for the past eleven years has been one of Continuous Reductions of Cost to Consumers. Compare these reductions with the Constant Increases of Rates for other forms of public service. Take Gas, or Instance In 1919 the price of gas, which had been Fifty-Five cents per Thousand Cubic feet, Was advanced to Sixty-Cente per Thousand Cubic Feet. This rate was later advanced to Ninety Cei ts per Thousand Cubic Feet. This higher rate was later advanced, by authority of the Federal Court to One Dollar and Twenty Cents per Thousand Cubic Feet. This rate was later reduced by the State Commission to One Dollar and Fifteen Cents per Thousand Cubic Feet. Take Telephone Service, for Instance In 1919, under Government Control, the Telephone Company was permitted to install a rate schedule higher than that prevailing before that time. These rates were increased, effective March 1, 1920, the State Commission increasing the government schedule of rates. These rates were again increased, effective February 1, 1922, the increased telephone costs under this order to Indianapolis customers amounting to Five Hundred Thousand Dollars per Year. These rates were again increased, effective September 1, 1923, to the extent of an additional revenue from Indianapolis telephone customers amounting to Four Hundred Thousand Dollars per Year. The Federal Court then authorized the charging of still higher rates, calling for an additional cost to Indianapolis telephone customers of Three Hundred Thousand Dollars per year. Within two years telephone rates in Indianapolis have been increased Twelve Hundred Thousand Dollars per year. Take Street Railway Rates, for Instance These were Five Cents Single Fare, Six-for-a- Quarter Ticket Fares, before 1917. In 1917, the Commission authorized a Five Cent Fare, straight. In 1920 it authorized a One Cent transfer charge, making an average fare of Five and a Quarter Cents. In 1921 it authorized a Six Cent fare, Twenty Tickets for a Dollar, and One Cent for Transfers. In 1921 the fare was changed to Five Cents straight and Two Cents for a Transfer. In 1923 the street railway company was relieved of the duty of paving between its tracks, and that expense put upon the general taxpayer. In the same year the “Owl Car” rate of fare advanced to Ten Cents. There is now authorized, effective May 20 th, a Seven-Cent cash fare, or Four Tickets for a Quarter fare, a One Cent Transfer, and a Ten-Cent Owl Car fare—all combined will increase the cost of street car riding to the people of Indianapolis Five Hundred Thousand Dollars per year. These increases have all been granted by the properly authorized regulating bodies after careful review and consideration of all the factors entering the cost for performing the services to the public. While food costs in the cities have mounted forty-two per cent (42%) in the last decade, housing sixty-two per cent (62%), cloth seventy-four per cent (74%), furniture one hundred and seventeen per cent (117%) (these are government figures), the cost of electric current has actually dropped! One of the greatest efforts which the Utilities have put forth has been along the lines of meeting the increased “Cost of Service” without corresponding increases in its (the Utilities’s) Rate Schedule. * HAVE THE FOLK WHO ARE AFRAID THAT INDIANAPOLIS WILL GO TO POT UNLESS ELECTRIC RATES ARE FURTHER REDUCED, IN THE FACE OF THESE OTHER CONTEMPORARY ADVANCES, SOME BUG UNDER THEIR CHIP?
