AVIATOR LEARNS
EUROPEAN custom
Buhl Man in Flying Service
Wins Fame, Publicity and
European Popularity by
Kissing italian Flying
Partner.

The following, the first account, of
the activities of an Idaho man, was
contained in the Associated press dis
patches from the Italian front, as
published in Mondays papers:
Lieut.. Harry L. Holtz of Burley,
Idaho showed he could combine cool
ness in danger with a thorough un-
derstanding of Italian habits and
customs On his way back over the
Austrian lines, after a deep raid into
enemy territory, his plane was struck
by burst of shrapnel from anti-air-
craft guns. One fragment lodged in
the body of HoltZ's machine, another
tore hole in the right wing, while
a third splintered one of the left
wing spars, at the same time cutting
one of the control cables to such an
extent that a single strange of steel
wire was left.
Lieut.. Holtz pointed out the break
to the Italian mechanic accompany
ing him to show the imminent danger
they were in. The mechanic. with
out a moment hesitation, climbed
out and fought his way to the wing
against tremendous wind pressure.
Then lying fiat on his face and brac-
ing his feet against the strut, he
grasped the damaged cable with Que
hand on each side of the break,
Just when he was getting a grip
on the last strand of the cable it
parted and the value of his adring
action was apparent With the cable
gone, the big airplane was useless,
but he chung there, substituting his
strength for it and enabling Lieut..
Holtz to bring the machine safely
into Italian territory.
After landing, the lieutenant
showed himself true student of
Italian customs. Instead of trying
to thank the mechanic in faulty
Italian, he simply rushed up to the
assistant threw his arms around him
and kissed him vigorously on both
cheeks. The cheering from the near
by Italians and Americans which
greeted this action, made the Aust
rians across the Piave wonder if an
other attack was impending.

Sour Stomach.

This is a mild form of indigestion.
it is usually brought on by eating
too rapidly or too much, or of food
not suited to your digestive organs.
If you will eat slowly, masticate your
food thoroughly, eat but little meat
and none at all for supper, you will
more than likely avoid the sour
,tomach without taking any medicine
whatever. When you have sour
stomach take one OF Chamberlain
Tablets to aid digestion.
