MANY HAVE APPENDICITIS
AND DON'T KNOW IT

Much so-called stomach trouble is
really chronic appendicitis. This can
often be relieved by simple glycerine,
buckthorn bark, etc, as mixed in Ad-

lower bowel, but Adlerika acts on
BOTH upper and lower bowel, and re-
moves all gases and poisons. Brings

This is the first official announce

enter the var on Illicit narcotic deal

drugs. Mr. Powell urged that the re-
stricton Of immigration to this coun-
try would check the traffic in dope
and that the Legion would proceed to
that end.
In describing the activities of the
dope pedders Mr.. Powell made these
assertions:
"One person in every seyenty-thres
uses drugs as a habit. There are l.
100000 persons now in America who
cannot face existence without drugs,
and who are swiftly sinking into a con-
dition Of hnpelessness and death.

meditated murder on the part Of the

DISABLED MAN AIDS BUDDIES
Hans Hunsdort, ST. Paul. Victim Of
tuberculosis, Still Working for
Fellow Sufferers.

Disabled himself, perhaps no man in
the Midwest is doing more active
work among disabled veterans Of the
World war than Hans Hunsdorf. now
I'm the Aberdeen hospital at St Paul,
MINI. Hunsdorf has personally inter
ested himself in the cases Of his bud
dies" who are suffering from the eff
fects of their service In the World war
and is endearing himself to these men
by his splendid Efforts in their behalf.
Hunsdorf was born IN Eidswold, Nor
way, in 1878. AT thirty-nlne he en-
listed in the army NJ Fort Mcdowell.
Cal, and went to France as a mechanic
with the One Hundred and Eighty
sixth Aero squadron. where he made a
splendid record. He received a certitl-
cate Of disability In line of duty and Is
now totally and permanently disabled
from the rayages of tuberculosis. This
gave rise to a long period of hoSpltau-
cation, during which time Hunsdorf
has been in seven government inStitu-
tons beginning in France and ending
at ST. Paul, where he is now a patient.
Spurred on by conditions he saw IN
these hospitals among his companions.
+Iunsdorf set out by personal work to
relieve the troubles or those about him.
He has assisted hundreds Ia their
claims for compensation and similar
lines. He has attended every military
funeral which has occurred IN his To-
cality, and has placed &c poppy Of
remembrance" on every coffin.
Recognizing the American Legion rs
one Of the agencies for afforlIng relief
to World war veterans, Hunsdorf has
put much effort into securing members
for the organization. Since the open
ing of the 1928 campaign he has per-
sonally written the applications Of 101.
though this is probably the least Of his
service TO the Legion Without thought
of the personal sacrifice involved. this
man, Of foreign birth, has given I'M

uon, and now facing defeat because OF
the physical conditions brought ON by
his sacrifices. still devotes himself 10
