are naturally at work in the stomach.
Scientific analysis shows that diges-

Not a Case of Sentiment.-At re-

how lacking in sentiment some people
are, when Mrs. Albert S. Burleson'
wife of the postmaster general, was
reminded of a case along that line.
One afternoon, Mrs. Burleson said
a fond wife returned home rather ear
lier than she had expected and found
her husband burning number of let
ters that had been tenderly tied in
soft blue ribbon.

Where Il Would Do Most Good.-Ip
the younger days of Mr.. Bodkin, X
c., a man was charged with murder at
Glare assizes. The prisoner and the
witnesses were all peasants who could
only speak Irish, and the proceedings
had to be conducted through an inter-
prefer. Just before the trial the pris-
oner's brother approached a leading
barrister who knew Irish and invited
him to defend. :, The great man, how
ever, could not take the case, but he
said: II have a young friend who
knows Irish we'll and is an excellent
lawyer. He'll see that the interpreter
doesn't play any tricks. His name is
Bodkin."
All the end of the assizes the barris-
ter ran against his would be client
whose fcae was wreathed in happy
smiles. The barrister, immersed II
work, had not followed the trial, but
he said instinctively, Il can see you
got your brother off"
."Oh, yes!" was the reply.

find his wife weeping uncontrollably.

"A dream!" she gasped, Il have had
such a horrible dream!"
Her husband begged her to tell 1t

was induced to say this:
Il thought was walking down the
street, and came to warehouse
where there was a large placard. 'Hus-

q Yorkshireman is so keen after
money that he will grab at it dead or
alive. A certain native worked at a
sawmill. and one day he met with an
accident, two of his fingers being cut
off and dropping in the sawdust.
OF course the man was hurried of
to the infirmary and after he was gone
his mates began to look for his fin
gers in the sawdust, when in walked
the foreman, who said:
Il say, what are you wasting your
time there for? Why don't you get
on with your work?"
One of the men replied:
That Yorkshire chap has had two
fingers cut off. and we're looking fol
them"
What a waste of time" cried the
foreman. Wen soon find them"
And he threw a half crown on the
floor, when up came the two fingers

at the money.

AF TER OIL TRUST
FOR 0NTEMPT
Attorneys for Department of
Justice AIIege Violation of
Dissolution Decree.

WASHINGTON, March 7.-Contempt
proceedings may be filed against the
Standard Oil Company by the depart
ment of justice for alleged violation
of the decree of the supreme court in
the dissolution proceedings brought
under the Sherman law.
1t became known today that recon-
mendations to this effect have been
filed with Attorney General Mercy
nolds. They had the approval of for
mer Attorney General Wickersham.
This, or the alternative of an entirely
new suit, will be acted upon by Me-
Reynolds within the next several
weeks.
The recommendations submitted, COW
ering a period of four months field
search by attorneys for the depart
ment, state that notwithstanding the
dissolution of the Standard Oil Com
pany, of New Jersey, holding concern
for the various Standard Oil subsidiar-
les, the conduct Of the business of the
trust has not been changed materially
since the dissolution proceedings. The
system of interlocking directorates, in
which the stockholders of one COM
pany were the stockholders to large
extent of the other companies, has pre-
vented competition among the various
subsidiaries.
The only change made. the recon-
mendations state, is that dividends are
paid directly from the subsidiary con-
Germs and not through the holding COM
pany as formerly.
The suggestion that the case against
the Standard Oil Company would be re-
opened was declared to be impossible
in law by attorneys of the department
and the only way to reach the com
pany was through contempt proceed
ings, as was done in the case of the
Southern Wholesale Grocers assoeia-
tiOn.
