Stick to Your Knitting ■ J*'* ./ * • • • ■ ♦ THE production of crude oil is, in itself, a highly specialz izcd business. vo Standard Oil Company (Indiana) recognizes this fact and leaves to others the drilling of wells, the operation of pipe lines, and the other activities incident to the. production, storage, and transportation of petroleum. * It buys its requirements of crude • oil on the open market and pays the market price. The business which engages the attention of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is the manufacture, * distribution, and sale of the products of petroleum. The Company goes into the oil fields and buys the Crude it Wants from whoever has it for sale. In this way the Company is able to select with care the raw material it uses, and is not hampered in its endeavor to render greater service by being tempted to use crude which is not exactly suited to its needs. By. devoting all of its time to the business of refining and marketing, the Company is able to fulfillts obligation to the public by supplying petroleum products of the highest known standards—to maintain at • , all times a uniformity of quality—and to manufacture in such volume and in such variety of forms —as to enable it to sell these products at a low price.

A New York official comments on the desirability of elastic prices. All prices seem to' be fairly elastic, judging from the. terrific amount of stretching they are standing.— Nashville Southern Lumberman. In democratic countries like England strong objection is voiced to the King saying “my” government. Perhaps it would meet the difficulty if they changed his title from King to President. —Kansas City Times. ■ '' - \ ; Mtet yoa eat—always taka f ATONIC ’ Instantly relieves Heartburn Bloat ar two* tor to A.

ROSE ABOVE HUMBLE STATION

Thomas Britton a Curious Anomaly In English Social Life of Time of Queen Anne. » • - • One of the most curious anomalies of the social life of London during the time of Queen Anne —called the Augustan age because of Its great literary men —was a retail dealer in coal, named Thomas Britton, who was buried in Clerken well churchyard, London, on October 1, 1714. He exercised a humble craft, and occupied a habitation and wore a garb corresponding in plainness to his trade, and yet thia singular man contrived by his various talents, and more especially his musical tastes, to assemble around him the most aristocratic company in London, and to be admitted into their society on equal teisns. According to the practice of the time, he sold coal In small quantities, delivering it himself each morning. It Is related that having finished his rounds, he joined a distinguished company that met each Saturday at one of the booksellers to discuss literature and exchange opinions respecting the latest boohs. This company contained such distinguished and powerful persons as the duke of Devonshire and the earls of Oxford, Pembroke, Sunderland and Winchelsea. Britton’s house in Aylesbury street, Clerkonwell, was the meeting [dace of leaders In the fashionable society of London. On the ground floor was the warehouse for coal, and above, reached by breakneck stairs from the outside, was a low narrow room, in which the musical coalman entertained bis grand and elegant guests. A portrait of this remarkable man is in the British museum.

NOTHING UNREAL ABOUT THIS

-J. I — Only an Idealist Would Have Ex- . pected Anything Else From the Modem Gilded Youth. Editor George Horace Lorimer was talking in a Philadelphia club about realism. Tve got no time for realists," he said, "because they paint human nar ture worse than it is. Here’s a typical realist story for you: “A pretty girl was engaged to two young men simultaneously, and one evening the parlor maid came to her and said in a scared voice: ‘“Oh, Miss Bessie, them two gents what you’re engaged tovhas called together, and somehow they’ve found out about both engagements.’ “The pretty girl threw her cigarette into the fire pettishly. “'What the dickens shall I do?’ she exclaimed. “But the parlor maid smiled joyfully. “ Til tell you what to do, Miss Bessie,’ she said. Til go downstairs and say you’re crying In your room because your pop has lost all his money. Then you can be engaged for keeps to the gent what stays.’ “That seems a good plan,” said the pretty girl, and she lit another cigarette and waited. “The maid was gone about three minutes. Then she returned with a frightened look on her whltej face. “ ’Miss Bessie, both on- ’em has gone,’ she said."

A Preacher Fisherman.

He couldn’t get rich preaching, so he gave it up and wens fishing. After a season’s work with a salmon fishing crew he haff enough money to buy tickets to Norway for his wife, their four children and himself. Now Rev. H. B. Nyoen, former 'pastor of the Norwegian Baptist church of Tacoma, Wash., is on his way to Norway where he says preaching is more lucrative than in America. His desire tat money was due entirely to his longing to return to Norway. When his earnings as a fishermar) were sufficient to buy the tickets he was willing to quit fishing. He will go to Harstad, Norway, where he will receive as pastor about $1,500 a year, with house and fuel. He received only SBOO from his little church tn Tacoma.

Expenses Low In Australia.

It is hard to imagine in this country, but, -according to Mark Sheldon, Australian trade representative .his country la in a daqs by itself, so far as the cost of living is concerned. Living costs have Increased but 30 per cent, and a four-room cottage rents for from S2O to $25 a month. There is no I. W. W. and employers and labor unions are forced by law to arbitrate. There is no new tax to pay the war debt, and the country has three crops of wheat, to put on - the market, according to Mr. Sheldon. Soldiers are paid $lO a week by the government until they secure Jobs.
