Saved My Life
With Eatonic
Says Now Jersey Woman
“I was nearly dead until I found
Eatonic and I can truly say It saved
my life. It is the best stomach medi
cine ever made,” writes Mrs. Ella
Smith.
Add stomach causes awful misery
which Eatonic quickly gets rid of by
taking up and carrying out the acidity
and gases which prevent good diges
tion. A tablet taken after meals brings
quick relief. Keeps the stomach
healthy and helps to prevent the many
Ills so liable to arise from excess acid.
Don’t suffer from stomach miseries
when you can get a big box of Eatonic
for a trifle with your druggist’s guar
antee.
“As Light as Air.”
“I have often been amused at this
phrase,” writes a correspondent “It
Is used by novelists and poets In a
manner which suggests that air has
no weight. But I doubt If they would
like to carry a roomful of air If It'
was compressed into a dress-suit case.
Air weighs 75 pounds a thousand cubic
feet and a room that measures 20 feet
long by 10 feet wide by 12 feet high
contains 180 pounds of air.”

THE “MOTHER OF THE BONUS”
Friendly Title Assigned to Kansas
Woman Member of the Legislature
and Called “Legislady.”
Mrs. Ida M. Walker, first woman
member of the Kansas legislature, Is
nonored by Amer
ican Legion mem
bers of that state
with the title of
“Mother of the
Bonus,” for It was
Mrs. Walker who
drew up and
pushed through a
state bonus, which
grants ex-service
men one dollar
for each day of
military or naval
service during the
worm war.
Although Mrs. Walker cannot quali
fy for membership In the Legion or in
Its Women’s Auxiliary, she has been
a tireless worker for the cause which
brought the organizations into exist
ence, and for which they now stund.
During the World war she was state
director of women's work in the Bel
gian relief fund and also served as
food administrator for her county. The
“Mother of the Bonus” also assists
her husband In the publication of a
weekly newspaper and Is a former
president of the Kansas Federation
of Women's Clubs.
The advent of Mrs. Walker to the
legislature resulted In the coining of
a new word. At loss to distinguish
between mule and female members,
ttie recent session decided to refer to
women lawmakers or ‘‘legisladles."

ly $10,000,000 for Legion Struc
ture at State Capital.
A suitable national headquarters
building of the American Legion In

lature, appropriating almost $10,000,
000 for a war memorial structure,
which will house the Legion’s main
offices.
Five city blocks In the heart of
Indianapolis will be used for the me
morial project. The building will be
erected In the middle block, with the
remaining plots transformed Into a
magnificent city' plaza. At one ex
terior of the memorial site is located
the Federal Postoffice building, erect
ed at a cost of $6,000,000. Facing the
outer end of the plaza Is the $3,000,
000 city library.
Tentative prans for the construction
of the buildings are now in the hands
of a state commission, of which Post
master General Will H. Hays Is a
member. Selection of the architect
will be made by the National Institute
of Architecture, following a contest In
DR. T. VICTOR KEENE.
-
which all architects of America hare
been Invited to participate. The legis
