Kings Frugal Luncheon.

The King of Italy has very frugal
habits, and on one occasion when out
hunting his love of simplicity led to
an amusing incident. The King was
quite alone, and after walking about
for some time without obtaining any
sport, he was at last lucky enough
to shoot a fine chamois.
A peasant boy who had seen the
animal fall into a chasn offered TO;
fetch It's carcass for King Victor, al
though he had no idea Of the identity
OF the sportsman. Every WE'LL said,
his Majesty, 81 will wait here.
But what will you give me, signor?9
asked the lad. What do you want?'
said the King, smiling. "oh,sa franc
and half your luncheon, replied the
lad. The bargain wa struck and the
boy went off down the mountain
side, and o returned with the body
Of the channels.
The King gave him a franc, and
then proceeded to divide his lunch
into two equal portions; but the
peasant, when he saw what King
Victor had to eat, turned away con-
temptuously, for the lunch consisted
of a small loaf of black bread and q
large raw onion. mo, thanks, none
of that for me-" exclaimed the lad.
IT thought you were a gentleman,
but I see you are only a poor fellow
like myself."-From NJ. A p.

STANDARD OIL CO. WINS
viii Not Have to Pay Thai S29,.
d. * 100000 FiHa.
T.. 3. Circuit Court Of Appeals Denies
Government a Rehearing in
Famous Rebate Case.

Chicago.-The Standard Oil Com
pany will not have to pay the famous
$29,240,OO0 fine. The United States
Circuit Court of Appeals, with Judges
Grosscup, Baker and Seaman sitting,
denied tho petition of the Attorney
General for a rehearing Of the de-
cision handed down by Judge Gross
cup, reversing the decision of United
States District Judge Kenesaw Noun
tain Lands and demanding the case
to his court for retrial.
Acknowledgement Bonaparte in
tends to take the case to the Supreme
Court OF the United States on a writ
Of c%ertiorari. This is the last hope Of
the Government to force the Oil Trust
to pay the record rebating fine i'm
posed by Judge Lands.
In the opinion the Court took oc-
casion to criticise sharply the Gov
er-ment's counsel for alleged miscon-
struction Of the Courts previous
ruling. -
The great fine was imposed by
Judge Lands on the Standard OIL
Company of New Jersey, the parent
company of the Trust, after a jury in
the court had found the Standard Oil
Company Of Indiana, a branch Of the
Trust, guilty of rebating on 1852
counts. The minimum fine in each
count was $1,000 and the maximum
$4,000. Judge Lands gave the Oil
Trust the full limit, saying that "the
men who thus deliberately violate
this law wound society more deeply
than do they who counterfeit the
:.oin or steal letters from the mall"
Tie denial Of the Government Pc
tition as announced was based on the
grounds outlined by Judge Gro5scup
Wien he reversed Judge Lands and
ordered a new trial.
In the opinion Of corporation law
yers the ground of error taken by
Judge Grosscup is the worst blow to
the cause of the Government. It was
the evident plan of the Attorney-Gen-
eral to force by constant heavy fines
the subsidiary concerns Of the Stand
ard Oil to break entirely from the
parent company or come out into the
open as mere agents and thus place
themselves squarely under the Sher-
man Antitrust law.

Health Regained by Right Food.

The average healthy man or wom-

some useful task or employment.
But let dyspepsia or indigestion
get hold of one, and all endeavor be-

"a year ago, after recovering from
an operation" writes a Mich. lady,
my stomach and nerves began to
give me much trouble.
AT times my appetite was vora-
cious, but when INDUCED, indigestion
followed. Other times I had no ap-
petite whatever. The food I took did
not nourish me and I grew weaker

"I lost interest in everything and
wanted to be alone. had always
had good nerves, but now the merest
trife would upset me and bring on a
violent headache. Walking across
the room was an effort and prescribed
exercise was out Of the question.

but did rot believe what l read. at
the time. At last when 1t seemed as

eat Grape-Nuts.

year, but nov after two months. on

again. My stomach gives me no trou-
Bile now, my nerves are steady as

ton have come back with the return

TOBACCO TRUST IS ILLEGAL
Three Judges Say That's the Way
Sherman Law Works.
Supreme Court Has Interpreted 1t
in Like Manner Injunction
Stayed Pending Appeal.

New York City.-Judges Lacombe,
Coke and Noyes, Of the United States
Circuit Court, handed, down opinions
in the Governments suit to dissolve
the American Tobacco Company,
holding that the defendant combina-
ton is in violation Of the provisions
of tho Sherman Act relating to re.
straint of trade. An injunction
against the maintenance Of the COM
bination is granted with a stay pend
ing appeal. Judge Ward handed
down a dissenting opinion.
The Governments suit against the
so-called tobacco trust was begun
more than a year ago and the testi-
mony was taken before United States
Commissioner Shields.
In the three concurring opinions
the complaint, so far as it involved
the Imperial Tobacco Company OF
Great Britain and Ireland and the
British-American Tobacco Company,
is dismissed. The injunction granted,
subject to stay, excerpts also the
United Cigar Stores Company and
the r. P. Richardson, Jr., Company.
An appeal to the United States Su-
preme Court will be taken at once.
The application for a ~receivership for
the defendants is denied "as imprac-
ticable and wholly unnecessary"
Judge Lacombe concurs with Judge
Coke in the latter's conclusions con-
corning the United Cigar Stores Com
pany and the R. P. Richardson, Jr.,
Company, and adds: II agree that
issuance of Injunction should be sus-
pended until after decision on ap-
peal"
In conclusion Judge Lacombe says
that there is an absence of persuasive
evidence that by unfair competition
Independent companies were forced to
sell out to the American Tobacco
Company, nor does it appear that
there was any increase in the price of
tobacco products to consumers. Each
purchase of a company, however, was
a contract, he says, and a combination
in restraint of competition which Is
sufficient to bring it (American To-
bacco Company within the ban Of
this drastic statute"
