The Curse of Progress Sympathetic. The civilian who wasn’t quite equal to the task of distinguishing officers’ rank by their insignia, was conversing with a colonel. Several times he called him captain, then, as if not sure, he asked: “You are a captain, aren’t you?” “Well,” said the colonel, slightly amused. “I am not any more, al though I once was.” “That’s too bad,” consoled the civilian. “Drink, 1 suppose.”—U.

Ellen—Well, for one thing, John, I’ve just found out that you get a $2,500 allowance on your income tax return for being married, and you only gave me a miserable $10 a week.

Home Heating Hinfc ■» John Baitbgr IIIIILv) Heating Expert Proper Size Coal for Furnace Keeps Fuel Costs Down and Avoids “Ashpit Waste” t_T OME-OWNERS can’t possibly A get maximum economy and efficiency from their heating plants unless they burn the proper size coal. While different sizes can be burned in most furnaces; don’t underestimate the impor tance of using the size—or combi nation of sizes—best suited to your heater to produce the most heat for the least money. The size of the firepot in your furnace will, under ordinary cir cumstances, indicate the most ef ficient size to use. With a firepot— or interior—24 inches in diameter and 16 inches deep, egg size is usually recommended; 18 to 23 inches diameter and 12 to 18 inches deep, stove or chestnut size; less than 16-inch diameter, chestnut size. Local climate, position of fur nace, size of chimney and house sometimes make it advisable to vary these sizes. To be sure of what size coal you use, I would suggest you have your dealer call and advise you which size, or sizes, will give you the greatest heat value at the most economical cost. IT’S GREAT TO BE BACK AT WORK when you've found a way to ease the pains of RHEUMATISM and do it the inexpensive way, too. You can pay as high as you want for remedies claimed to relieve the S ain of Rheumatism, Neuritis, ciatica, etc. But the medicine so many doctors generally approve— the one used by thousands of families daily — is Bayer Aspirin —15^ a dozen tablets — about apiece. Simply take 2 Bayer Aspirin tablets with a half glass of water. Repeat, if necessary, according to directions. Usually this will ease such pain in a remarkablv short time. For quick relief from such pain which exhausts you and keeps you awake at night — ask for genuine Bayer Aspirin. virtually 1 cent a tablet Cause of Regret I regret often that I have spo ken, never that I have been si lent.—Syrus. A Good Laxative The bad feelings and dullness often attending constipation take the joy out of life. Try a dose of Black-Draught at the first sign of constipation and see how much bet ter it is to check the trouble before it gets a hold on you. Black- Draught is purely vegetable and is so prompt and reliable. Get re freshing relief from constipation by taking purely vegetable BLACK-DRAUGHT WOMEN WHO HOLD THEIR MEN NEVER LET THEM KNOW N O matter how much your back aches and your nerves scream, your husband, because hs Is only a man, can never under stand why you are so hard to live with one week in every month. Too often the honeymoon ex press is wrecked by the nagging tongue of a three-quarter wife. Ths wise woman never lets her husband know by outward sign that she is a victim of periodic pain. For three generations one woman has told another how to go “smil ing through” with Lydia E. Pink- ham’s Vegetable Compound. It helps Nature tone up the system, thus lessening the discomforts from the functional disorders which women must endure in the three ordeals of life: 1. Turning from girlhood to womanhood. 2. Pre paring for motherhood. 3. Ap proaching “middle age.” Don’t be a three-quarter wife; take LYDIA E. PINKHAM’S VEGETABLE COMPOUND and “SmiHnir Thrmiarh’•
