ELLIOT PRAISES HOSPITAL SERVICE FOR SOLDIER BOYS

Representative Dick Elliott, of the Sixth district of Indiana, in addressing the House of Representatives in Washington Saturday, described the elaborate hospital arrangements that have been made for the care of the discharged soldiers of the late war. The director of war risk insurance bureau co-operating with the public health service, has more than 26,000 hospital beds in public health hospitals in national soldiers' homes and in 21 army hospitals which the secretary of war has turned over for this use. There are now 10,000 vacant beds in the national homes in which civil war

and Spanish-American veterans are living. The homes have excellent hospital facilities and their use or enlargement Is recommended by Representative Elliott. Mr. Elliott declared that some "pernicious liar" had been attempting to give the impression that hospital facilities are inadequate and to meet this untruth, he made this statement In cqjrRress. He said: "There has been a pernicious effort on the part of some publicity Bource to make the people of tnia country believe that the congress has not done Its full duty to the disabled discharged soldiers of the late war by way of supplying adequate hospital facilities necessary to restore them to health, and to care for those who are destined at an early date to make tho supreme sacrifice for their country. One article circulated by a certain agency was to the effect that 72,000 soldiers who had become insane during their service in the late war haii been neglected by congress, and that none of these insane men had been provided with hospital treatment. Declares Report Not True. "I do not know the name of the pernicious liar who started this report, but I do know that the report is not teue. It is unfortunately true, howler, that there are, according to the 'report of the public health service,

made to the committee on public buildings and grounds, Feb. 7, 1920, 30,162 who are termed neuro-psychia-tric patients requiring hospital attention under the supervision of the buireau of war rick insurance during the next two years. These men are suffering from various kinds of men'tal troubles from mild derangements to violent insanity and to use a term invented by the soldiers during the war, from 'shell shock.' "

"I prepared breakfast for the family yesterday, then cleaned up everything and swept the house, which is the

first time I've been able to do such a thing in years," declared Mrs. Ordie Speed, who lives on Greenwood Ave., Richmond, Ind. "I have suffered from a bad stomach trouble. No matter how careful I was about my food, it disagreed with me, and gas bloated me up; aching pains would strike me in my lower bowels, rnd I felt like there was a big lumjin my throat which I could neither swallow or spit out. I was badly constipated and had to take some kind of medicine every night for the trouble. It wasn't long until my kidneys began to bother me and I had awful backaches. Although I have taken much medicine, none seemed to fit my particular case." "Every day I read in the papers about what Dreco was doing for people, suffering exactly like myself, so I got my husband to buy a bottle for me, and I believe the first dose helped me, for my stomach seemed to feel so much easier. I took it regularly by directions ,and today I hardly recognize my own self, for I feel so much better. The constipation is entirely relieved. I never have a backache; my appetite is good and I eat anything I want, and never haVe the gas nor rains in my stomach. My nerves are

c.uieted and I sleep fine, and am gaining back my weight every day. There is nothing too good for' me to say about Dreco." Dreco is now sold by all good druggists throughout the country and is highly recommended in Richmond by Clem Thistlethwaite's Seven Drug Stores. Advertisement.
