Brain Food Nonsense.

Another ridiculous food fad has
been branded by the most compe-
tent authorities. They have dis
covered the silly notion that one
kind of food is needed for brain
another for muscle, and still an
other for bones. A correct diet
will not only nourish a particular
part of the body, but will sustain
every other part. Yet, however
good your food may be, its nutri-
ment is destroyed by indigestion
or dyspepsia. You must prepare
for their appearance or prevent
their coming by taking regular
doses of Green's August Flower,
the favorite medicine Of the
healthy millions. A few doses
aids digestion, stimulates the liver
to healthy action, purifies the
blood and makes you feel buoyant
and vigorous. You can get DR..
Green's reliable remedies at D. A.

Roosevelt Now
After Standard
Special to The Oil Review.

Special TO Inc VII heVleW.
Washington, Nov. 2S.-There is
authority for the statement that
two inspectors of the Bureau OF
Corporations, who were engaged
in the work of investigating the
Beef trust, have been designated
to begin at once an examination
of the Standard Oil monopoly,
with reference to its alleged effect
in restraint of trade and honest
competition in the. oil trade. No
immediate results, it is under
stood, are looked for, but care
full investigation of the Lawson
allegations and others against
this giant monopoly, it appears,
will be conducted.
Where the inspectors will be-
gin their work or the scope of
their instructions, cannot yet be
learned. Secretary Metcalf of
. The Department of Commerce and
Labor. said that he knew Onthing
of the alleged Standard Old inveS-
tigation. as that work, if under
taken. would be conducted by
/ Commissioner Garfield of the Bur
eau of Corporations, under the d.
rectiOn of the President. The
. President and Commissioner Gar
field are out of the city. While
it is apparent that no two inspec-
tors can be expected to unearth
all the alleged manipulation in re-
straint of trade of which the
Rockefeller combination is ac-
cused, it is evident, from the fact
that a beginning is to be made,
that the Roosevelt administration
is determined to probe this mo-
nopoly and ascertain if the allie
cations made so openly against it
are we'll founded. Rumor in the
Department of Commerce and La
Dor says that one of the inspec-
tors will 90 to the oil fields OF
Texas and undertake to probe the
Standard Oil dealings there, while
the other probably will cOnfine
his attention for the present to
New York or some other Eastern
commercial centre where the
Rockefeller interests operate eX-
tensively. Whether other inspec-
tors will be detailed on this work
later is conjecture, and may de-
pend largely upon the prelimi
nary report Of the two inspectors
first to be detailed to this work.
Other trusts also, it is under
stood, will not escape similar in
vestigations, especially two which
are regarded as the worst foes of
the public's interests and the
most reprehensible crushers of
competition and individual rights
except the Standard Oil. None
will be spared, it is Understood, if
convincing evidence can be pro-
cured against them. They will be
compelled to explain their course
of procedure. or submit to
searching investigation soon.
This program, however, has not
been mapped out definitely by
the administration, but it is und-
erstood that the President will
touch upon the trusts, and what
he purposes to inquire concerning
their operations. in his annual
message to Congress or in spec
ial message to be sent in later, in
this winter S session.

Wells Forum: While some of our
farmers and especially the tenant
farmers hard UP this fall, the hard
times racket is being worked by people
who have money loaned out at interest
They do this for the purpose of stand
ing off their bills another year. Busi-
ness men have told us about instances
where customers have told them they
could not pay their bills till next fall,
and when the merchant told him he
would have to give him a note at 10
per cent interest, the customer has
been able to find some money in the
bank where it had been drawing four
per cent interest. One business man
took a customers note without interest,
in order to get settlement. What was
his chagrin when he found out after
wards that the customer had a suug
sum of money drawing interest. The
hard times cry is being overworked.
