Western Oil Com
panies Combining
Against Standard

There can no longer be any
doubt but that the Shell and Pure
oil companies have combined
for the purpose of actively enter
ing the lists against the Standard.
Representatives of these compan-
les have been in the middle west
for weeks, and scores OF produc-
ers have gone into some sort OF
an alliance. 1t is reported that
not only the heaviest operators OF
Kansas but some of the Territory
whose names would cause a SEN
sation, have signed articles with
the Shell and Pure Redresenta-
tives. One of the oldest and lar
gest producing companies IN the
Bartlesville field is said to have
met the conditions of this COM
pany. That the Standard is alive
to the dangers which threaten its
supremacy is abundantly evlden-
ced by the editorial policy of the
Oil City Derrick. This publica-
ton. has been yelling for weeks
against the encroachment of the
English combination, and serious
" AYERS that the American mar
ket is in danger of falling into the
hands of foreigners. However, to
all of these yelled appeals for SYM
pathy the producers are calmly
replying that none could be worse
and for this reason the new conner
is welcomed. q.

The Curve OF Health.

The expression the cure OF health,
which was first uSel by Oliver Wen
dell Holmes, himself Il physician, ilsd!-
Gates in modern mathematical fashion
the fuctuating changes in bodily
health, OF which all are n times aware
and which may be expressed by vary
ing curves outlined on paper.
Many imagine that the normal state
Of health is best represented by a
straight line. This is by no means the
case. There is rhythmic undulation
in the flow of our vital force. The dy-
namo which furnishes the working
powers of consciousness and action has
it's annual, monthly, daily waves, even
it's momentary ripples. We have our
bad times and good times. Some by
careful observation of the rise and fall
Of this curve, have so adjusted their
holidays and times Of rest and activity
as to conserve their energies and avoid
the snares Of disease. 1t is from his
knowledge of this curve that the fam
ily physician can act successfully.

Fading Landmarks.

The old Serrett Hotel property
has been sold. Some years ago
the hotel on the bank of the Teche
was reached and destroyed by one
of New Iberla's big fires. 1t was
never rebuilt. The last large fire
wiped off all the remaining build
ings which were connected with
the old hotel property. In these
small buildings Mr.. and Mrs.
l. P. Serlet made their home
humble and unpretentious, but
comfortable.
When the fire of May 10th,
broke out the little home of these
aged people was ablaze before
help reached them. Their person
al effects were doomed. To get
them to a place of safety was the
first question of the moment
Mrs. Serrett was able to help her
self and was led away, but the
old gentleman became helpless
His great avOrdupois made 1t diff
ficult to handle him. Stout bed
covers were spread upon the floor,
he was rolled upon them and then
dragged-mOre than carried
from the burning building to a
place of safety. They found
shelter and succor under the
hospitable roof of Judge RObt
Brown. where they remained till
Wednesday of this week.
During the current week Mr.
Serrett finally decided to sell his
property holdings of nearly AZ
years and accordingly transferred
title to the old hotel site to Jules
l)reyfus for the consideration OF
$500. This act of sale has the
further effect of opening Julia
street from Main to the bayou.
After disposing of the property
the old couple decided to 60 to
their only living son, Leon, who
holds a railroad situation in Ar.
kansas, and make their home with
him. When leaving the old man
