Film Fun (Jan - Dec 1918)

The Camera Man in the War (Continued from a previous page) is usually not welcomed with any degree of cordiality. A major in the British army helped me with my camera work, and he took me wherever I wished to go. In fact, we got so close to the enemy at times that I was wounded twice by shrapnel, while on another occasion I was given a baptism of mud when a huge shell struck a few yards in front of me, killing several men; but it was all in the day's work, as there was no other way of getting the pictures I wanted." While no doubt those taken by our own government movie men will in time equal them, it is a fact that since the outbreak of the war the official French photographs have been particularly good and illustrative. The reason for this is to be found in the fact that all the operators were expert photographers before the war. Now they are all enlisted men, who go about their work under the direction of their oificers as part of their army duty, and, like good soldiers, do not consider the risking of their lives when necessary. As a matter of fact, not a few have been killed while at work. When necessary, the French movie operators use big army automobiles to convey them quickly from point to point. Frequently the tops of these cars are employed by the men to furnish the elevation which is often necessary in the taking of good photographs. In Our Town By JAMES G. GABELLE Ken Jacques has decided to be a motion picture actor.

Friends say, ' What have you been doing to yourself, you look so well and full of life? ' In my opinion there is nothing like organic iron— Nuxated Iron — to put strength and power into the veins of the weak, run-down, infirm or aged." Dr. H. B. Vail, Medical Examiner and late of the Baltimore and Columbus Hospitals, says, " Time and again, I have prescribed organic iron — Nuxated Iron — and surprised patients at the rapidity with which the weakness and general debility were replaced by a renewed feeling of strength and vitality. One man 47 years old who had practically worn himself out with stimulating medicines and nauseous concoctions came to me recently after a month's course of Nuxated Iron and declared : ' Doctor, I feel as full of life and energy as when a boy of 21.' When you compare a product like Nuxated Iron which is easily assimilated and does not injure the teeth, with the older forms of inorganic iron which upset the stomach, ruined the teeth and passed through the body without doing any good, it is not surprising that millions of people annually are now taking Nuxated Iron and physicians everywhere are prescribing it." Former Health Commissioner Wm. R. Kerr, of the City of Chicago, says ; " I am well past my threescore years and want to say that I believe my own great physical activity is due largely to-day to my Gee! That there staff (Nuxated Iron) acts like magic. It certainly puts the ginger into a man. personal use of Nuxated Iron, and if'my endorsement shall induce anaemic, nervous, run-down men and women to take Nuxated Iron, and receive the wonderful tonic benefits which I have received, I shall feel greatly gratified that I have made an exception to my life-long rule in recommending it. From my own experience with Nuxated Iron I feel that it is such a valuable remedy that it should be used in every hospital and prescribed by every physician in this country."

Beyea and Vail and Former Health Commissioner Kerr, is for sale by all good druggists on an absolute guarantee of success and satisfaction or your money refunded.
