You know what the color and dryer are

choose to know; but we'll tell YOU.
Lead-and zinc and oil combine to form q

The oil would do it alone; lead-and-oll
would do it, without the zinc: zinc and Oil
without the lead: but the three together are
best, because they wear best.

will toward all men and to possess the
solace of the good will of all men," He
declared that he could not say too much
t. his hearers on this subject, because if
all worked to those ends heaven would
exist on earth. Mr.. Rockefeller's ambi-
ton is most laudable one, but one, it
