close, Rockford scoring but points.
Wyland of Moline was largely re-
sponsible for keeping the score down.
Early in the second half he was taken
from the game because of rough
play. One of the Rockford men was
in position to receive forward pass
and Wyland hit him in the back with
his shoulder. According to the
rules, this is not rough play, but Wy
land was put out anyway. In this
half Rockford played it's usual good

VIII Abide by Final verdict
New York, Nov. 22-Mortimer F.
Elliott, general counsel for the Stand
ard Oil company, said yesterday, In
commenting for the first time on the
decision against the company handed
down Saturday by the United States
circuit court at st. Paul:
'T have seen what purports to be the
text of the decree handed down by the
United States circuit court. The com
pany will take an appeal Immediately
to the United States supreme court
and will cheerfully abide by the YER
whatever that may be.

pleased with the opinion itself, but
that we are glad to get Il, whatever its
nature.
Dissolution Not Ordered.
''The decree does not order a disso-
luton of the Standard Oh company.
That is a misunderstanding. What the
decree AoELtsrs, as no~I-anderstznd II,
is that the company shall distribute
among fits stockholders, OF whom there
are approximately 5000. its holdings n
the stock Of subsidiary companies.
This distribution, further understand,
is ordered to be effected ON a pro rata
basis of apportionment That is to
say, the heaviest holders of Standard
OIL stock would receive a proportional
number Of shares in the stock Of sub
sidiary companies"
Doubts Practical Eject.
Henry Wollman, who represented the
attorney general OF Missouri in that
states suit against the Standard on
company and conducted the examine
ton in New York Of officers OF the
company, takes a view similar to that
expressed by Mr.. Elliott. He sums up
the situation as a Theoretical victory"

practical effect is to be expected. II,
seems as If the best the government /
can do is to order the sale of the prop I
erty, and in that case the money, OF
course, goes to the present stockhold-
ers in some form or another. There f.
no confiscation, no punishment as there
would be in the case OF criminal pro-
ceedings with the imposition Of a big
fine.

The Pinple
And The Face
First Show Signs of the Blood Pow
eTty Which Causes Most
Skin Diseases.

Il is strange truth that pimples usually
appear upon the face, thus Illustrating
that nature uses the most direct method
Of convincing man that the blood is filled
with poison.
The human circulatory system is said to
be the most wonderful Of all evidences
Of nature. 1t carries health, food and
strength to every part Of the body 1t
also carries from every part OF the body
all germ life, waste matter and decay.
If through poor eating, indigesu on, con-
stipation, etc, the blood is filled with
poisonous. decaying, irritating fluids, these
pOisOns are carried TO the lungs, where
they are attempted to be cleansed by the
oxygen from air inhaled
IL this does not accomplish the results
demanded the blood takes away the poison
and carries it to the little cells Of the
skin. where they leave it. Here these pol
sons irritate and decay, until at last they
form pimples and blackheads and other
skin eruptions; at last bursting or are re-
moved by man.
When you have pimples it is a certain
sign your blood is wrong, that the great
human blood system is turned into an in
tricate series Of sewerage canals which
are filled with impurities.
Science long ago learned that Calcium
Sulphide was the most powerful, harmless
and beneficial blood purifier Obtsinable.
StUaTt's Calcium Waters, under chemi-
cal tests, ConcluSlVely prove themselves to
be one Of the best methods Of preserving
the fun strength OF this great blood
cleanser.
The real beauty of Stusrts Calcium Wa
fers lies in their rapid work. Their good
effects are seen after only few days use
and a face full OF pimples has been made
clear and clean after only five days use
Of these waters.
These waters, by the peculiar Stuart
process. preserve and hold the full
strength Of Calcium Sulphide. so that the
system obtains this wonderful purifier in
It's most efficient state.
Other methods of administering and pre-
pairing Calcium Suiphide have proven
