WOman's Committee National
Defense Council Moves.
Organization Now in Three
War Work Drives.

The woman's committee, Kansas
branch, national council of defense,
has moved its offices to the second
floor of Memorial hall, from the first
floor.
The committee is now engaged in
three war work drives, carrying out
instructions received from headquar-
tiers at Washington. The machinery
of the committee is being used thruout
the state for the liberty loan drive,
and the women all over Kansas are
at work in the sale of government
bonds.
The work of the child welfare COM
mittee is now organized in more than
fifty counties, and the distribution of
literature is being made thruout the
state in the interests of the reduction
of the infant mortality rate and in bet
ter health and living conditions for
children.
Recruit Student Nurses.
The work of recruiting student
nurses is being continued, and the
quota for this state is nearly reached.
The standard required for acceptance
in the student corps is high, and only
the best prospects are being registered.
The committee will cooperate with
the seven organizations that are to put
on the united war work compaign in
November. The woman's committee

man of the national committee. Doc
tor Shaw emphasizes the fact that the

bring together into one group all wom-
ems societies doing any kind of war
work.

INFLUENZA
Claims More Victims Than Hun
Bullets.
Disease Can Be Avoided Auth
critics Say.

According to cal efully compiled sta
tistics it is an indispuIable tact that
the Spanish Influenza Epidemic which
is now sweeping all parts of the coun-
try is daily claiming far more victims
than German bullets on the battle
fronts of Earope. Although civil and
military authorities have succeeded in
checking the disease in some localities,
il is growing worse in others and con-
tinues to spread at an alarming rate.
That the disease can be avoided there
is no longer any doubt. According to
leadir authorities the powers of re-
sistance of the human system can be
so perfected that it can throw off al
most any injection. not even excepting
Spanish Influenza, which is one of the
most contagious diseases known.
1t - persons Who are. suffering from
Lowered vitality, who are weak and
rundown and who have not the
strength to throw off who are the
earliest victims. Persons who have
bad colds, who are suffering from
catarrhal troubles, or inflammation of
the mucous mem bra mes are especially
susceptible, as the inflamed mucous
membrane Innings of the nose and
throat are an open door to the germs.
This condition is almost always ac-
companied by a weakened condition of
the system.
If you are suffering from any of
these symptoms. nothing on earth will
build you up and strengthen you like
Tanlac, which contains the most pow
erfuf tonic properties known to
science st4f-
This statement is easily proven by
the fact that -Tanlac is now having the
greatest sale of any system tonic in
the history of medicine. In less than
four years time over Ten Million Bot
ties have been sold and the demand is
constantly increasing. * Thousands are
using it daily for the above troubles
with the most astonishing and crafty
sTanlaes increases your strength and
wight and creates a good, healthy
appetite for rfourishing food. 1t keeps
you physically fit and helps every or
gan of the body perform its proper
function in the natural way.
In connection with the Tanlac Treat
ment be sure and keep the bowels
open by taking Tanlac Laxative Tab
lets. samples of which are included
in every bottle.
.Tanlac is sold in Topeka by Tully-
Mcfarland Drug Co.-Adv.

A SUCCESSFUL REMEDY

All things succeed which really de-
serve to-which fill a real need, which
prove their worth. The fact that the
famous old root and herb remedy,
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, has for three generations been
relieving women of this country from
the worst forms of female ills and has
won such a strong place in our Ameri-
can homes proves it's merit beyond the
question of a doubt. 1t will we'll pay
any woman who is in need of such a
medicine to try it-Adyertiseme
