Richmond showed a larger loss than Any other city in the state, according to statistics released Wednesday morning. During the month of May, 35 building permits were granted here, the estimated value of which amounted to $37,575. In May, 1920, 47 permits were issued for a total value of $65,000. South Bend followed close on the heels of Richmond with a loss of 40 per cent, and Hammond was deficient i 39 per cent over last year. Terre Haute was the only city in the state showing any great building activity, a gain of 170 per cent being frhown in its report. Gary had a gain of 22 per cent Four per Cent Loss Shown The American contractor states that btatifctics from all over the country

show a loss of four per cent from April of this year, which wa3 an exceedingly high month. The potential condition of the construction industry is reported improving slowly by builders, i The crying need for residence construction has bolstered the industry throughout. According to figures submitted by the F. W. Dodge company, 34 per cent of all contracts awarded during the first five months of this year have been for residence construction. This is considered a big per cent. Gain in Valution Official reports from the building departments of 1SS cities give an estimated valuation of $143,021,383 for ihe 50,680 permits issued in May, 1921. This is one per cent gain over the valuation of $141,994,915 for 42,725 permits issued during May, 1920. The settling of wage controversies in larger cities has given rise to a tpurt in the building trades. NewYork leads all of these with a gain of 157 per cent over the same period last year.

No Corns Today unless folks let them stay

Millions of people nowadays keep completely free from corns. At the first sign of a corn they use Blue-jay the liquid or the plaster. The pain then stops. In a little while the .whole corn loosens and comes out. People who pare corns keep them. People who use old treatments harsh, unscientific do themselves injustice.

There is now a scientific cornender. Afamous chemist perfected it. This worldfamed laboratory supplies it through druggists everywhere. ' ' . It is at your call. A touch will apply it. Its use seals the fate of a corn. At least 20 million corns yearly are now ended in this easy, gentle way. Apply it to one corn tonight. Watch what it does.

Thousands Are Nervous Wrecks Cross, Crabbed and Care-worn From Weak, Thin Watery Blood without ever suspecting the real cause of their trouble Iron-starvation.

A New York Physician says that MORE THAN ONE 1ALF THE POPULATION OF AMERICA PERISHES BEFORE MIDDLE AGE and that one the chief contributory causes of this terrible waste of human life is the devitalizing weakness brought- cz L,-lack of iron in the blood. THERE ARE 30,ooo.ooo,00tr.o00 RED BLOOD CORPUSCLES IN YOUR BLOOD AND EACH ONE MUST HAVE IRON. An enormous number of people who ought to be strong, vigorous and in the prime of life are constantly .complaining of weak nerves, headaches, pains across the back, disturbed digestion, shortness of breath, a general run-down" condition, melancholy, bad memory, etc.. when the real cau&e of all their suffering is IRON STARVATION OF THE BLOOD.

The proof of this isshown by the fact that when organic iron is supplied to their blood, that ill their multitude of symptoms often quickly disappear and the very men and women who were formerly so complaining now became strong, healthy and vigorous, with even dispositions and sunny, cheerful natures. Nature put plenty of iron in the husks of (Trains and the sk ins and peels of vegetable and fruits to enrich your blood, but modern methods of cookery throw all these things away hence the alarming increase, in recent years, in anaemia iron starvation of the blood, with all its attendent ills. If you are not willing to tea back to nature then you should eat more such iron -containing vegetables as spinach and carrots and reinforce them by taking a little organic iron from time to time. But be sure the iron you take is organic iron and not metallic iron which people usually take. Metallic iron is iron just as it comes from the action of strong acids on small pieces of iron and is therefore an entirely different

thjng from organic iron. Organic iron is like the iron in your blood and like the iron in spinach, lentils and aprles. It may be had from your druggist under the name of N mated Iron. N mated Iron represents organic iron in such a highly condensed form that one dose of it is estimated to be approximately equivalent (in organic iron content) to eatin? one-half quart of spinach, one quart of green vegetables or half a doien apples. It's like taking extract of beef instead of eating pounds of meat. Over 4.000,000 people annually are using Nuxated Iron. It will not injure the teeth nor disturb the stomach. A few doses will often commence to enrich your blood and revitalize your wornoat, exhausted nerves. Your money will be refunded by the manufacturers if you do not obtain satisfactory results. Beware of substitutes. Always insist on having genuine onronic iron Nuxated Iron. Look for the letters N. I. on every tablet. At all druggists iu tablet form only.
