Kaanta, Minn.— "I am glad to say
that Lyiiia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Com|>ounil has done
more for me than
anything else, and 1
had the best physi-

Weak and nervous
that I could not do
my work and suf-
fered with pains low
down in my right
side for a year or
more. I took Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound, and now I feel like a
different person. 1 believe there is
nothing like Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound for weak women and
young girls, and 1 would be glad if 1
could influence anyone to try the medi-
cine, for I know it will do all and much
more than it is claimed to do." — Mrs.
Clara Franks, R. F. D. No. 1, Maple-
crest Farm, Kasota, Minn.

We are told that it was the fus-
ion! of No. 68 In times past to ob-
serve the anniversary of the birth of
Oild Fellowship, wliicli anniversary
occurs April 2G. This year, however,
there was no observance of the day
by Empire Lodge.
On April 20, 1X19, the Independent
Order of Odd Fellows, and American
secret society, was formed. There had
been Odd Fellows lodges In this
country before that year, back as far
as ISH2. These were created by the
Kngllsh Immigrant members, ami It
was not until Thomas Wildey, aided
by John Welch, John Duncan, John
i'heat ham and Richard Hush worth
started an Odd Fellows lodge In
Haiti more with a charter from the
Kngllsh Independent order, that the
society took root In America.
From that little beginning, with-
in 9fi years, there has grown one of
the largest fraternal secret societies
In the world. It Is no longer a
branch of the Kngllsh Odd Fellows
organization running back to nliout
1710. for in 1115 or thereabouts, it
seceded and became literally the In-
dependent Order of Odd Fellows—
without that portion of the original
formal title known as "Manchester
I'nily "
America's O.l.f Fellowship has
been carried to Alaska, to the Domln-
li.n of f'nnadii, the Hawaiian and the
Philippine Islands, Austria, Denmark,
Italy, Switzerland, the Argentine Re-
public, Cubn, France, Japan, Holland,
Sweden and Oermnny.
Taking the organization through-
out the world 1,000.000 men joined It
In the Rfi years between 1S30 and
January 1. 1911, during which period
relief w.<s extended to nearly 1,800,-
000 members, to more than 311.000
widowed families and an aggregate of
$1f.r.,ono was expended.
Thomas Wildey was the first grand
master of the first Odd Fellow #rand
lodge In the Fnited Styes, and the
first subordinate Odd Fellow lodges
chartered by him were Washington
N'o. 1 and Franklin No. 2. Wildey
lived until October 19. 18(11, 12 years
after his transplanting the Kngllsh
Odd Fellows to the t'nlted Ststes and
1(! years after the organization had
become Independent of the mother
soeiet> In Knglnnd.
The value of the order's homes for
the auiil or dependent members, :im-
111inorphanages and the like, scat-
tered through many states, Is said lo
In several million dollars.
Some of the In Iter known men In
public life who have been members
of tin organization were: Oliver 1'.
Morion, war governor of Indiana;
John Sherman and. among presidents
of the 1'nlleil Stales, flrant, Hayes,
(lartlelil and Harrison. Vice Presi-
dent Schuyler Colfax was one of the
more active members of the order
having had much to do with the
founding of the women's branch of
Odd Fellowship, known as tho
Daughters of Ttebekah, within the
lodges of which arc found about one-
third the total membership of the so-
ciety as a whole.
