THE 8EMUWEEKLY TRIBUNE, NORTH PLATTE, NEDRA8KA. DON'T BUY ASPIRIN IN A "PILL" BOX Ask for "Bayer Tablets of Aspirin" in a Bayer package -marked with "Bayer Orosj." Tou must shy "Bayer." Never ask lor merely Aspirin tablets. The name "Bayer" means you are getting the genuine "Bayer Tablets of Aspirin," proven safe by millions of people. Don't buy Aspirin tablets In a pill box.

Women's complaints often prove to bo nothing else but kidney trouble, br the result of kidney or bladder disease. If the kidneys are not in a healthy con dition, they may cause the other organs to become diseased. You may suiter pain in the back, head ache and loss of ambition. Poor health makes you nervous, irrita ble and may be despondent; it makes any one so. But hundreds of women claim that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, by restoring health to the kidneys, proved to be just the remedy needed to overcome such oonditions. Many send for a sample bottle to see what Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and bladder medicine, will do for them. By enclosing ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y.,you enay receive sample size bottle by Parcel Post. You can purchase medium and targe size bottles at all drug stores. Adv. Use for Old Batteries. In open fireplaces, especially where wood is used for fuel, n gorgeous colored-fire effect may be produced, says Popular Mechanics maganzine, by placing one or two old dry cells among the hot coals. The substance with which the top of tho bnttcry is sealed soon burns away, and tho hent sets np a chemical action, produciug a gas which burns with a flame of vivid blue, purple and green. One old dry cell will continue tho spectnelo for from hnlf to three-quarters of an hour, depending upon the hent of- the fire In which It Is placed. No" danger at taches to tliis production of colored fire. It costs nothing, inasmuch ns old dry batteries are ordinarily worthless, but It will provide both pleasure nnd amusement at fireside gatherings. Well, Isn't It? -Clifford, Avhnt Is an Island?" Clifford had not studied his geogra phy lesson, and was stumped for a moment by his teacher's question. "Well," ho said, pnusing between words to think, "nn Island is a place where, If you haven't got a boat, you can't get off." REFUSED TO ACCEPT FAVOR Wounded British Officer Insisted Waiting for His Turn to Havo Hospital Attention. on The British officer, whatever ills pro fessional qualifications, always has courage, solicitude for his men nnd a strict sense of Justice. I hnvo wondered, tays Mr. Charles W. Whltehalr In his recently published book, "Out There," nt the grcnt love and sympathy that seem to exist be tween tho British officer nnd his men. I hnd .seen It In India before the war. I have seen It In all parts of the Brit ish empire. I know the reason now. I have yet to see a British officer among the wnlklng wounded who goes ahead of his men to have his wounds dressed. Outside of one dressing station sat a young colonel with a bad wound. One of the secretaries noticed him and said, "You had better get Into the dressing station nt once." ' "It Is not my turn. I will not go out of turn." Some four hours Inter, the secretary, passing out food und drink, again no ticed tho colonel. "Here I Why haven't you had your wounds dressed?" he exclaimed. "I am waiting for my turn." "But It was your turn long ago." "Are you sure?" "Of course I nm. Come, let me help yorf." Into the dressing room he staggered. He had no Idea that lie hnd doite a heroic thing. The Man He Was Looking For. The Sydney Bulletin tells a new story of the shirker caught nt his own game. It was a soldier, who said:, "Plea?e, sergeant, may I be. ex cused from church parade? I am an agnostic." "Don't you believe In the Ten Com mandments, then?" "No, I don't." "Not even the one about keeping the Sabbath?" "No." "Well, you're the very man I've been looking for to scrub out the canteens." Hnt From the Sweet Girl. "I'd kiss you If I hnd a reasonable excuse." "The family In tho tint above Is named Mistletoe," coyly responded the girl. Kansas City Journal. Woman may be the weaker vessel, but Bhc sometimes contains the strong er spirit, Women Should Carry Pencils. "Now that there are getting to be so many women In business," .com plained ah office man, "every business house In tho course of the day has many women cnllers, but I never have found one yet who carried a pencil. "Frequently you have to give thera an address or a memorandum of somo sort. Invariably the first request Is, 'May I borrow a pencil?' "If women are going to bo really efficient in the work world they've got to remodel their clothes und provide a pocket for pencils." Flrst-Hand Knowledge. Belle What's the floor tax?

Cheese Is one of our most valuable foods und one which Is mucli slighted. There are many who hnvo a wrong; iilcn In rognrd to the digestibility of cheese, calling it I iWG i iWuyMfeQ) periinonts Imvo boon mnde upon a large number of people. The report from these Is that cheese Is not hard of digestion and Is one of our most nutritious foods. The Idea which has caused cheese to bo put on tho black list for digestibility Is probably that (hecse is often eaten nt the end of a henvy menl nnd the attack of Indiges tion Is attributed to the cheese when tin whole menl Itself is to blame. The varieties of cheese are many nnd bewildering. To one interested it is a most pleasant study. Tho origin nnd history of cheeses mnko very In teresting reading. Tho right kind of cheese to serve with certnln courses is a puzzle to many an entertainer, for It Is quite n breach of culinary etiquette to serve the wrong variety at any course of the dinner. Some of the popular cheeses, begin ning with our own American, which Includes the rich cheeses well ripened mnde In Wisconsin, are called New York, Brick, Limberger, Swiss, Sage. Other cheeses foreign made, though now produced many of them In this country are Edam, Stilton, Cheddar, Hoquefort, Canieinbert, Grnyere, From age do Brie, Sapstgo and Parmesan. For macaroni dishes nnd an grntln dishes there Is no cheese more popu- lat tlinn the rnrmesnn. It is very hard nnd is usuully on tho market grnted ready for use. If bought In the Italian market you are sure to get the real article. For rarebits, soufllos and nil linked d'shes a rich, well-ripened cheese should be used, the Wisconsin cheese, so-called New York, Is the best; In fact is good anywhere nt nny time. Cheese should be used freely as flavor and as food. It is twice ns nutritious pound for pound ns stenk, with vei- little waste.

It Is because of this close connection that Indigestion, belching, sour, gassy stomach and other stomach miseries all of which re sure signs of ncld-stomnch are so often followed by severe attacks of blinding, splitting headaches. Nervousness, sleeplessness, Irritabil ity, mental depression, melancholia and many other disorders which nlrect tno brnln can also nearly always be traced to tho same source acid-stomach. So often you hear people 6ay "I am bo nervous I think I'll fly to pieces"; or "It seems I never get a good night's aleep nny more, my nerves" nro nil on idge." Little do they dream that acid stomach Is the direct, cause of their troubles because very often there nro no pains In the stomnch at all. So you ree, you can't nlwnya Judge an ncld stomnch condition by the wny your stomach, Itself, feels. If you are weak, nervous, unfit If you nro not up to your old tlmo form If you Inclc your accustomeu enttiu Blasm, energy nnd pep make this test and sue If It Isn't ncld-stomach that Is holding you back robbing you of your health, strength, and vigor, uet n big box of EATONIO the wonderful modem medicine that so quiciuy puts an acid stomnch to rights.
