STANDARD OIL MUST
LEAVE THE STATE
The New Jersey and Ohio CON-
panies Ordered to Pay UP
and Get Out While Sub
sidary Companies
Can Stay.

Jefferson City, Mo. March 9.---Mo-
tions by the standard Oil company of
Indiana and the Republic Oil COM
pany OF Ohio for rehearing of the
custer suit recently decided against
them and for modification OF the
judgment were overruled by the Mis-
souri, supreme court today. The posi-
tion of the Waters-Pierce company
was upheld, the motion of the attor-
ney general for an absolute custer of
the Missouri company being denied,
the compliance with the court order
recently filed by the company approx
ed and the judgment of custer against
it being suspended.
The effect of these decisions is 10
expel the Indiana and Ohio companies
from Missouri and to restore the Wa
'ters-Pierce company, so per cent of
whose stock is held by the standard
Oil company of New Jersey, the right
to do business within the state. The
standard oil interests are expected to
appeal their case to the supreme court
of the United states
The decision is considered a great
victory for the Waters-Pierce COM
pany and incidentally for the minority
interests of that concern, who claim
To have been making unavailing ef-
forts to free the company from con-
troll of the New Jersey corporation.
With the judgment of custer made
absolute against the indiana and Ohio
companies they must now pay their

ARMOUR SAYS MEAT

Cost of Beef

Atlanta, Ga, March 9.-"Meat will
be cheaper this summer" said j.
Ogden Armour who passed through
Atlanta on his way from Palm Beach,
Fla to Chicago yesterday.
Meat is high. too high, at pres.
ent,' he continued, but this is be-
cause of the increased cost of feed

when corn is high, meat is high. This
summer we expect the price Of corn

WOMAN SUFFRAGE

The movement for woman suffrage
makes sure and steady progress
throughout the civilized world, and l
am glad to say that if we all do our
duty at the election in 1910, the stig-
ma of dragging behind in this i'm
portant reform will no longer mar the
fair name of our State. 1t is, | be-
lieve, q matter of intense satisfaction
TO every true Patron, that for forty
years the Grange has been a steadfast
adherent to the great principle of
universal adult suffrage, and has not
only consistently advocated the re-
moval of every legal disability from
woman, but has put the principle into
practice in the Order. In Grange law,
women are not only the equal Of men
in every way, but, as it is fundamental
in Grange teaching that the Grange
can only attain it's greatest useful
ness and influence when the woman
membership is numerically as strong
and influential as that of the men, the
Grange constitution provides for pro-
portional representation, so far as men
and women are concerned, by requir-
ing one-half of the voting delegates
in the National and State Grange to
be women. 1t is my firm conviction
that we would have had women suf-
frage in this State long ago if the
Grange had been strong enough to en-
force the enactment into law, of so
fundamental Grange doctrine. And
now that we are strong, let us DEM
onstrate our strength by carrying the
suffrage referendum by rousing vote.

VALUE OF FREE USE OF FRUIT

Grapes and some sweet cherries
have been found to contain as much
as Is per cent of invert sugar. Apples.
gooseberries, raspberries and straw
berries usually contain Z to 8 per cent
of invert sugar. Some of the larger,
early apricots, on the other hand, con-
tain as low as per cent of this sub
stance. For the relief Of muscular IA
tigue the foregoing fruits, with the eX-
ception of apricots, are highly suitable.
Cane sugar is usually found, though
in varying quantities, in fruits. In the
sour lemon this form of sugar does
not usually reach above | per cent.
In bananas cane sugar is present to
the extent of about II per cent. In
some kinds of plums the cane sugar
content goes as high as IA per cent.
Naturally, it is in the dried fruits
that sugar is found in greater quanti-
ties. AS high as 80 per cent of invert
sugar has been found in prunes; in
English currants, 81 per cent; in rails
ms. 16: in figs, As; in dates, &c per
cent.
Apart from the sugar value of fruits,
there is another benefit that is COM
mon knowledge-their laxative effect.
Few fruits act as actual purgatlVes.

SPARE WHEEL COMES HANDY.

Scores of automobile owners who
participated in the long procession be-
tween Chicago and the Crown Point race
course had an opportunity to witness a
demonstration of the Rambler Spare
Wheel in which Charles T. Jeffery, Cen
eral Manager of Thomas B. Jeffrey &
Company, the originators of this device,
came to the timely assistance of F. L.
Winslow, a Rambler owner from River
side, Illinois.
Mr.. Winslow is the owner of a 1907
Rambler which has seen two years of
service. While driving to Crown Point
one of his front wheels was struck by
another car which broke all of the
spokes. The owner, not possessing a
Spare Wheel equipment, was left strand
ed on the road.
Some time later Mr.. Jeffrey and his
party came up in a Rambler Model for
ty-five equipped with a Spare Wheel
Immediately this handy accessory was
offered to Winslow and the adjustment
was made very quickly. notwithstand-
ing the Spare Wheel was two inches

wheel. The owner stepped into his car.

Their mildly laxative effect is due
largely to the presence of cellulose, a
woody fiber. This cellulose is little,
if any, absorbed into the system, but
its presence in the intestine acts as
a mechanical irritant or stimulant.
Fruit. therefore, should be literally
supplied in all dietaries where laXa-
tive effects are desired.
Most of the green vegetables act in
a similar way through the presence OF
celulose. 1t would seem, therefore. as
though vegetables might be relied
upon to perform this laxative work
wholly. Experience, however, has
proved that a judicious mixture OF
fruits and green vegetables in the
dietary is more efficaciOus.
Of the fresh fruits there is wide
range, all of them excellent for laxa-
tive effect. Of the dried fruits, figs
are the best; of the stewed fruits,
peaches. apricots, pears and apples
apear to be the most useful, in the
order named. 1t should here be re-
marked that the rhubarb stalk, While
not botanically entitled to be regarded
as a fruit. will serve eXcellently all
the usual purposes of fruit in the ra-
tion.-H. Irving Hancock in Good

Here is a handy way to keep a
dresser drawer tidy: Cut two pieces
of cloth, preferably cretonne, the
length and depth of the drawer.
Stitch the two lengths together as
well as the sides and hem the other
two lengths They stitch across in
three or four places, forming pockets.
Tack this inside the front OF the
drawer. The pocket will be found
convenient for ribbons, handkerchiefs
and wells.
