state laws regulating the same to be fully complied with. To Continue Improvements. "The annual revenue of the city will be lessened approximately. $14,000.00, beginning with the effectiveness of the prohibition law. This loss of revenue should, and can be safely met by the practice 6f strict economy and by carefully systematizing the expenditures, until such time as will insure an automatic readjustment of economic conditions. I am convinced this can be done without an . increase in the tax rate and still maintain a high standard of efficiency, and carry on each year a reasonable amount of permanent improvements. "Appointments will be made only on the basis of efficiency for the position, supplemented by a good general character. "I propose to maintain, if elected, stated office hours at the city hall. ,
"I am not the candidate of any class; and I Intend to conform to the last letter of my oath of office and to give the full measure of my ability at all times to the public service."
In prompt compliance with a suggestion embodied in an article appearing In The Palladium yesterday, to the effect that candidates for election to city offices should set forth to the citizens, clearly and concisely, their policies for municipal government, Dr. S. G. Smelser, a candidate for the Republican nomination for mayor, today Issued a statement setting forth the platform on which he stands. Dr. Smelser's statement follows: ' States Definite Position. "In presenting myself as a candidate at the coming primary election for the office of mayor, I deem it fair to the public that my position be definitely stated. In asking for the highest office within the gift of the citizens of Richmond, I am conscious of the Importance of the undertaking, and the very exceptional honor which the position confers; but I am actuated by the desire to be a contributor to Richmond's inevitable future development. Although it is oftentimes regarded that the declarations of a candidate are Idly made and adroitly expressed so as to gain support from
opposite classes, I want it distinctly understood that each and every statement comes from my honest conviction and the same will be fully and faithfully carried into execution if I am selected to serve you. "One of my principal efforts will be to act co-operatively with every agency within or without the city to make a bigger and better Richmond. To Practice True Economy. "True economy will be practiced in every department of the city government, and the highest possible state of efficiency maintained.

Former United States Senator Mason Pioneer in Pure Food and Drugs Legislation, Father of Rural Free Delivery System Takes Nuxated Iron to obtain renewed strength, power and endurance after the hardest fought political campaign of his life in which he was elected Congressman from the State of Illinois.

ficiency in your food by . using some form of organic iron Nuxated Iron just as you would use salt, when your food has not enough salt." Dr. E. Sauer, a Boston physician who has studied abroad in great European medical institutions, said: "Senator Mason is right. As I have said a hundred times over, organic iron is the greatest of all strength builders. "Not long ago a man came to me who was nearly half a century old and asked me to give him a preliminary examination for life insurance. I was astonished to find him with the blood pressure of a boy of twenty and as full of vigor, vim and vitality as a young ; man; in fact, a young man he really' was, notwithstanding his age.

From the Congressional Directory, published by the United States Government "Win. E. Mason, Senator from Illinois was elected to the 50th Congress in 1887, to the 51st Congress in 1891 defeated for tbe 52nd Congress 1892 Elected Senator to the 55th Congress 1897 to 1903." Senator Mason is now Congressman-Elect from the State of Illinois. Senator Mason's championship of Pure Food and Drugs legislation, his fight for the rural free delivery system, and his strong advocacy of all bills favoring labor and the rights of the masses as against trusts and combines, 'made him a national figure at Washington and endeared him to the hearts of the working man and the great m asset, of people throughout the United States. Senator Mason has the distinction of being one of the really big men of the nation. His strong endorsement of Nuxated Iron must convince any intelligent thinking reader that it must be a preparation of very great merit and one which the Senator feels is bound to be of great value to the masses of people everywhere, otherwise he could not afford to lend his name to it, especially after his strong advocacy of pure food and drugs legislation. Since Nuxated Iron has obtained such an enormous sale over three million people using It annually other iron preparations are often recommended as a substitute for it. The reader should remember that there is a vast difference between ordinary metallic iron and the organic iron contained -in Nuxated Iron, therefore always insist on having Nuxated Iron as recommended by Dr. Howard James, - late of the United States Public Health Service; Dr. Schuyler C. Jaques, Visiting Surgeon of St, Eliza-' beth's Hospital, New York, and other physicians. In this connection Dr. Howard James says:: "Iron to be of the slightest value to the human system must be in a combination . which r: may be easily assimilated. In the case of metallic salts of iron, iron acetate, etc., it is very doubtful if sufficient actual iron can be taken up and Incorporated into the blood to be of any service, especially in view of the disadvantages entailed by its corrosive action upon the stomach and the damaging effect pon the ' dental enamel. When, however, we deal with Iron in organic :ombination, such for instance as albuminate, or better still, Nuxated Iron, a far different story is told. We will observe no destructive' action upon the teeth; no corrosive effect upon the stomach. The iron is readily assimilated into', the. blood and quickly makes its presence felt in increased vigor, snap and staying power."
