ATTORNEY General MOnnett Of
Ohio, recently testified before the ma
GiOnal industrial commission, and
stated that the Standard OIL Com
pany's annual profits were more than
the aggregate value of the entire agri-
cultural products Of the great State Of
Ohio. Mr.. Monnett also stated that
the net cost Of refining oil averages
-four cents per gallon and all above
rthst price is profit. The price of oil
has been recently advanced and is now
quoted at ten cents in New York. AT
that price the greatest octopus among
all the trusts is apparently making six
cents per gallon. at this rate the an.
nual profits will amount to one hun

Ors Of the company declared a quar-
terly dividend Of twelve per cent. Al
this rate the Standard Oil trust, doing

It may be question whether The edi.
tor Of newspaper has the right to
publicly recommend any Of the various
proprietary medicines which food the
Market yet as q preventive Of suffering
we feel it q duty to say a good word
for Chamberlain Collie, Cholera and
Dirrhoea Remedy. We have known
and used this medicide in our family
for twenty years and have always found
it reliable. In many cases q dose OF
this remecy would save hours Of suf-
fering while q physician is awaited.
We do not believe in depending i'm
picitly on any medicine for a cure,
but we do believe that If q bottle OF
Chamberlain's Diarrhoea Remedy
we're kept on hand and administered
at the inception Of an attack much
suffering might be avoided and in very
many cases the presence ola physician
would not be required. At least this
has been our experience during the
