"When I commenced taking Tan

the kind Of troubles I was suffering
from, and instead of getting any re-
lief, I had gradually gotten worse
all the time. My stomach was in
such bad condition that even a glass
of milk would cause me to suffer
agonies after drinking it. For more
than a year / had not been able to
eat any substantial food, and this.
together with all the suffering I
underwent, had gotten me in such

dizzy that I couldn't stand on my
feet. My entire system was badly
rundown, and my blood got so thin
that my feet and hands were cold
in the hottest kind of.weather. l
finally got so bad off that had to
be under constant treatment, and
even then I didn't get any better.
"That was the condition l was in

taking Tanlac for about week,

ELKS' FLAG DAY EXERCISES

Those who attended the Flag Day
exercises of Putnam Lodge of Elks
were happily pleased with the fine pa
triotic program presented. Four mu-
sicians from Fay's orchestra of Provi-
dence furnished the music and it was
of exceptional quality. Attorney
William Miller of Boston, member of
Boston Lodge of Elks, delivered the
address on the Flag, touching on the
significance of the National emblem,
what it has stood for through all these
years, and dwelling at some length on
the recent world war. The address
was interesting and instructive.

obeyed and the wounded were trans
ferred. He told of the fnedish and
mereiless play made by a Hun aviator
who flew over the hospital several
times without molestation and then
aging over the hospital site he played
his machine gun from end to end of
the grounds.
So far as could be learned no one
was wounded, although the trail of
bullet holes was easily discerned
Major Kent gave his impressions of
devastated France, of the people and
their customs, and lastly of his return
to this country. When he had finish
ed, his hearers felt as though they
had been with him through every one
Of his strange experiences, so vivid
and interestingly had he told them.
Miss Isabelle Byrne, Red Cross
nurse and later in charge of gov
eminent nurse unit, was the next
speaker. She was in the class of
1899, a classmate of the postmaster,
Mr. Gilpatric. Her womanly sympa-
thy for the wounded soldiers was at
once apparent. She spoke of the
tests of the young men even though
their conditions were terrible, and
she told of the courage and fortitude
of American soldiers even though
their lives were ebbing away.
Miss Byrne spoke of her stay in
Paris Just when the long-range gun
was at work on the city, and of being
obliged to leave a restaurant when a
shell struck just around the corner
Her trip across the water was in the
palatial quarters of the Aquitania,
but her return was on a small tub"
which consumed fifteen days in cross
ing.
Superintendent of Schools William
L. Macdonald was introduced, and be
cause of the late hour spoke but
briefly. He hurriedly review his work
of the last two months in vocational
advice to returned soldiers in govern
ment hospitals. He said there are
estimated nine thousand kinds &C Jobs
in this country. and he told of the
difficulty in discovering and advising
to the best advantage how manned
soldiers can make good" He agreed
with Major Kent that the duty of this
country to the returned soldiers was
not complete until every one of the
men had been placed in the right po-
sition.
Miss Ellen f. Osgood. the first as
sistant teacher the High school ever
had was present and renewed her ac-
quaintance with some of the older Old
Grads. She was called upon for
message, and read poem by Attor-
ney Charles Allen of Boston, a for
mer student at the High school.

THE MAKING OF
4 FAMOUS
MEDICINE
How Lydia E. Pinkham's

A visit to the laboratory Where this
successful remedy is made impresses
even the casual looker-on with the reli-
ability, accuracy, skill and cleanliness
which attends the making of this great
medicine for woman's ills.
Over $50. 200 pounds Of various herbs
are used annually and all have 20 be

The most successful solvents are used
TO extract the medicinal properties from

Every utensil and tank that comes in

and as a final precaution in cleanliness
the medicine is pasteurized and sealed

1t is the wonderful combination OF
roots and herbs, together with the
skill and care used in its preparation
which has made this famous medicine

time he was advanced TO the superior
rank.
Beginning his address he noted that
the evening was the twenty-fifth an.
niversary of his graduation from the
Putnam High school, and the twenti.
eth anniversary of his graduation
from Brown University. He had been
attending commencement at Brown
during the day.
Major Kent said he had not been
interested in surgery and was attach
ed to the medical side Of the army
He was placed in charge of medical
camps and had oversight of hospitals
in which were patients afflicted with
all the ills that flesh is heir to.
BY word pictures that were so Wv
idly drawn he carried his listeners
with him from the time he left the
United States until his return, and It
seemed as though each experience he
portrayed was more interesting than
the previous one He told of the
tightening restrictions that grew each
dav as he crossed the ocean and
reached climax when he described
the submarine attack that was visited
on the convoy about twelve miles
from the French coast. The call to
stand by" the subsequent confusion,
the impressions not of fear but of ex-
element, the roar of the guns as the
vessels fired at the submarine, the
darling hither and thither of the busy
little cruisers, the gigantic columns of
water thrown up by the shells ard the
depth bombs, made the audience pic
ture to themselves the attack as IT
took place.
From the port of debarkation.
through the rush and seeming confu-
sion behind the lines in France, the
temporary stay at base hospitals, the
later assignment to the famous fight
ing Rainbow division, were strikingly
drawn in word pictures.
Major Kent told of his work under
shell fire. For period there was lit
tie to do until one night the Huns
started barrage that sounded. as the
major described it, like a tremendous
roll on giant drums. The hospital
unit knew what to expect and jumped
out of bed to prepare bandages, hot
water and the thousand and one
things necessary for the coming toll
of the battle line. In little while
the wounded began coming in. There
was work, the major said, for every
one every minute. In the midst OF
the work the Germans got the range
Of the hospital. At first the shells
went over the hospital, but little by
little the range was secured until
direct hit was made on a ward next
to the one in which he was working.
He said there are those who still
claim the Germans did not intention
ally shell hospitals, but he does not
believe the claim. A she'll tore
through the roof of the ward and ex
ploded inside, blowing the ward build
ing completely out of existence, kill
ing everyone within and wounding
others in wards nearby In few
minutes another direct hit was scored
on a ward on the opposite side, an
other fifty feet away, which tore on
the end of the building and again
killed and wounded the patients. An
order to remove the patients to
bomb proof dugout came when some
of the patients were under the spell
IF anesthetics, but the order had to be
