his father in the minds of certain
readers. When, a few years ago,
Nathaniel Hawthorn's great ro-

out of copyright, it was reprinted
by many publishers all over the
country, and thousands of read
ers became acquainted with it for
the first time. Readers are not
always very observant of the pre-

day Julian Hawthorn received a
request for an autograph from

of his most ardent admirers. 81

A W0man's Wealth,
Paine'S Celery
Compound
GIVES VIGOR AND
STRENGTH TO DEBILITATED AND
RUN DOWN WOMEN.

1t is maintained by many distinguished
writers that the greatness of a nation depends
uuch upon the physical condition of its
women. The general conditions which con-
tribute to health and long life, are those which
do not imply rapid and unequal exhaustion
of those powers by which life is maintained.
While we assert that the women of our land
stand peerless for beauty and the virtues that
make them lovable, we cannot hide the fact
that there are thousands in our midst who,
owing to overwork, worry, household cares,
and an unequal exhaustion of life power, have
become weak, nervous, sleepless, and debili-
tated.
We bring to the attention of all weary.

The Importance of a Comma.

A dispatch I" the Chicago In
ter Ocean under date of Coium
bus. Ind, October 10, says:
The Beatty will Case, involving
the omission from the instrument
OF a comma, which, had it. been
inserted wound have been wort h
SAB, 900 to John tfeattv, was de.
clded against the latter today bv
Judge Hord. The punctuation
mark which was omitted is the
cause OF the SUIT.
The court said that a comma
necessary to the easy construction
OF the will had been omitted :
that, had it been placed in the
will, it would have settled the in
tention of'the instrument, and his
ruling was made upon the pre-
sumption that the comma was
purposely omitted, or rather, that
the intention of the testatOr was
that the comma should be left
out.
The case will be appealed to
the supreme court.

Standard Oil Dividends.

The directors of the Standard
Oil Company Tuesday declared a
dividend of $12 a share on the
capital stock ioi the last quarter
OF the year. This is an increase
"i $2 share as compared with
The corresponding quarter of the
preceding year. rhe capital
of the company is in The neigh
borhood of $100,00O,OOO, and the
dividend agreed upon today rep.
resents disbursements of$12,0OO,
COO Tor the quarter, and $44,
100000 for the full year. Last
year stockholders OF the corpora
ton received $45,000,OOO.
John ID Rockefeller is credited
with owning 33 per cent. of the
stock. OF the Standard Oil Com
pany, and his receipts from the
earnings Of Incorporation dur
ing the current year appear to be
approximately $15,00O,OOO.
The four quarterly dividends of
the corporation this year follow {:
March 20 per cent; June 7 per
cent; September, 5 per cent ; and
November, II per cent. In the
first quarter OF 1902, 20 per cent.
was declared, second quarter 10
per cent, third quarter, 5 per
cent, and last quarter, 10 per
cent. The increase in the divi-
dend during the current quarter
is due to larger 2 earnings, result
ing from a sharp advance in the
price of oil. According to an Of
ticial OF the Standard Oil Com
pany, the corporation carries no
surplus, giving the benefit of all
earnings to the stockholders.
The Standard Oil Company is
now dlsbursing more money to
iockholders than any other cor
pOration in the world. The
United States Steel Corporation
held first place as a dividend
payer previous to the reduction
in the common dividend and the
conversion of preferred stock in.
to bonds. 1t now ranks second
TO the Standard Oil Company.
Since January 1, 1897, the Stan.
lard Oil Company has paid to
stockholders more than 1915
100000 in dividends. OF that
amount John ID. Rockefeller has
received more than $90,000,00O.
Since 1891 the disbursements of
the corporation run close to
75,000,000, or nearly for times
greater than the $100,000,00O
the capital stock.
A fair idea of the magnitude cf
the dividends Of the Standard Oil
Company can be obtained from
the fact that the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company, within the
last 81 years, has paid something
like $215,0OO,O00 to stockholders
or 100000 600 less than the
Rockefeller corporation has dis
bursed in six years.

Years Ago.

Chicago, May 16.--After following a
thousand clews that took them into near

continents, detectives have found at last
a solution of the mystery which has
shrouded the disappearance Of Frank Ely
Rogers, the 13-year-old son Of James c..
Rogers of Evanston, and his aunt, Flor
ence Ely, nearly two years ago.
William Ely, brother of Miss Florence
Ely, and Of the mother of the missing
boy, sails for Europe on the Red Star
liner iceland to-day, confident that he
will meet his sister and his nephew. De-
tectives will sail on the same steamer
and watch his every move, as they have
since he was released from the Connecti-
cut penitentiary at Wethersfield eight
weeks ago.
According to the theory Of the detec-
tives Ely planned the abduction of Frank
Ely Rogers for revenge on the boy S
