Nigh School Notes

the First National Bank gave
the high school a talk on
money. The talk was in keep
ing with the day which is
known as Thrift Day thro out
the United States.
The address was made especi-
ally interesting by the large
exhibit of various kinds of
money foreign, and domestic,
also bank notes uncut and un-
signed. The coin tester for de-
tecting counterfeits was espe-
cially interesting. This ad-

by one on The Bank State

Minot played Flaxton in the
forenoon game which gave
only gentle exercise to Minot
playing their subs. Bottineau,
worn down by the game of the

their standard in the evening,
altho it took Minot just seven
minutes and fifteen seconds to
make their first score. The
game was fast and gave the
audience plenty of thrills.

REMUNERATION

Even as an individual, once admired
and lauded by his fellows, may
through a single act or expression
undermine the structure of popular
approval which he has erected, so
conversely may a person or a group
of persons, working to a common end,
produce a result that will be increas-
ingly pleasing to an increasing num-
ber of those reached.
At one time Harper's Weekly was
world famous. Something happened.
1t lost its universal popularity. 1t was
no longer a household word. Now it
is being rejuvenated. and close observ-
ers of its present makeup and the
wide scope which its editorial and
managerial policy embraces are able
to note marked advancement. 1t
is a pleasure to read the weekly pub
lication which is slowly but surely re-
gaining the prestige which it formerly
enjoyed and which it is now proving
that it deserves.
In connection with the rebirth of
Harper's Weekly it is fair to say one
of the reasons for its growth in popu-
lar favor is undou btedly the infusion
of new and young blood into the per-
sonnel of the publishing force. There
is a young man, on this side of 25,
who graduated from Yale University
in June, 1915. That young man spent
the last three years of his college
course in a systematic. thorough, self
training for his work after college,
and is now managing editor of the
magazine and vice-president of the
corporation. Charles A. Merz of
Sandusky, Ohio, may we'll be set up as
an example of the modern, jealous

WHAT DYSPEPTICS
SHOULD EAT

Indigestion and practically all forms
of stomach trouble. about nine times
out of ten, are due to hyperacidity;
therefore stomach sufferers should.
whenever possible. avoid eating food
that is acid in its nature, or which by
chemical action in the stomach develops
acidity. Unfortunately, such a rule
eliminates most foods which are pleas
ant to the taste as well as those which
are rich in blood. flesh and nerve build
ing properties. This is the reason why
dySpeptics and stomach sufferers are
usually so thin, emaciated and lacking
come from a well fed body. For the
benefit to those sufferers who have been
obliged to exclude from their diet all
starchy, sweet or fatty food, and are
trying to keep up a miserable existence
on gluten products. II is suggested that
you try a meal of any food or foods
which you like. in moderate amount,
taking Immediately afterwards a tea
spoonful of Bisurated Magnesia in
little hot or cold water. This will neu-
tralize any excess acid which may be
present, or which may be formed. and
instead of the usual feeling of uneasi-
ness and fulness, YOU probably will find
that your food agrees with you perfect
lN There is nothing better than Bisur-
ated Magnesia as a food corrective and
ant-aCid. 1t has no direct action on the
stomach; but by neutralizinE the acid
ity of the food contents and thus re-
moving the source of the acid irritation
which infiameS the delicate stomach
lining. it does more than could be pos
sihly done by any drug or medicine that
acts upon the stomach lining rather
than the stomach contents. Medicines
of various kinds should be taken when
ever necessary but there is no sense in
dosing an infiamed and irritated stom-
ach with drugs instead of getting rid of
the acid-the cause of the trouble. Get a
little Bisurated Magnesia from your
druggist eat what you want at your
next meal, take some of the Bisurated
Magnesia. as directed above. and see
