Kodol supplies the same digestive
Juices that are found in a healthy
stomach. Being liquid, it starts
digestion at once.
Kodol not only digests your food,
but helps you enjoy every mouthful
you eat.
You need a sufficient amount of
good, wholesome food to maintain
strength and health.
But, this food must be digested
thoroughly, otherwise the pains Of
indigestion and dyspepsia are the
result.
When your stomach cannot do it's
work properly, take something to
help your stomach. Kodol is the
only thing that will give the stom-
ach complete rest.
Why? Because Kodol does the
same work as strong stomach, and
does it in natural way.

as written for the use of the order
are extremely patriotic and beautiful
in construction.
The committee having in charge
the meeting, had the hall very
tastefully decorated with different
sized flags, with emblems of the
the order displayed very prominently,
the whole making beautifuleffect in
blending the national red, white and
blue.
Members of r. H. Carr Post, G
A. R., and Major Wilkinson Circle
of this city attended the meeting in
a body and occupied front seats
which had been reserved for them,
applauding very liberallv when the
different parts were read.
F. S. Lycan, exalted ruler of
Bemidji Lodge, presided. and was
assisted by the other officers of the
lodge, who occupied their stations
as follows: E. H. Jerrand, past
exalted ruler; John e. Parker,
esteemed leading knight; DR.. J. T.
Tuomy, esteemed loyal knight; M.
S. Gillette, secretary; A. e. Barker,
esquire.
The different officers answered
their questions, as expounded by the
exalted ruler, and Past Exalted
Ruler z. Fl. Jerrard read the very
patriotic History of Our Country's
Flag" following briefly the various
stages of the national emblem from
its first inception.
The bell, with its red roses, white
lilies and violets, was placed to-
gether with appropriate lines from
different officers, and made very
PlCIty CllcCt.
The clock with its tolling of eleven
strokes, which is emblematic of
departed brothers, was tolled in
darkened hall, with pleasing effect.
Judge c. w. Stanton, who is
member of the local lodge, read the
1 e. 81 -
Tribute to the Flag" from the
ritual. This piece is one of the
best-written efforts on the national
colors that has eyer appeared in
print. The judge reaf the piece
with splendid voice and was cheered
to the echo.
Exalted Ruler Lycan stated that
it had been the intention to have
had addresses from two Elks Of
statewide reputation who were
present in the city, but that the
gentlemen had declined to be
present, and after singing America.
the audience was dismissed.
