Competition Defined.

In deciding that a retail oil dealer
in Iowa may recover damages from the
Standard Oil company for going into
the retail trade in competition with
the plaintiff with malicious intent to
drive him out of business because he
quit buying his supply from the de-
fendant and got it elsewhere, the su-
preme court of Iowa says in Dunshee
VS.. the Standard Oil company:
Men have the right to engage In
lawful competition, and though the
competition may have the effect Of
driving another out Of business, If the
competition is lawful no action arises
though injury resulted from the COM
petition. Where there is lawful com.
petition for gain, for supremacy in
business, for the legitimate control OF
business, even though the purpose and
effect of the competition is to drive
from business competitors, yet If the
competition is lawful and carried on
in a lawful way no action will lie.
There is a difference between lawful
competition and simulated competition
carried on with the sole purpose and
intent not of profit and gain, but of
maliciously injuring others engaged In
that particular business"

PROPER COURSE IN READING
Systematic Selection, With a Purpose,
is About the Only Way to At
tain Results.

A book, an apple, and blazing fire.l
What more can the heart of man de-
sire?"
Pretty near solid comfort isn't y u
Especially If the fire burns without
smoking, the apple is ripe and juicy,
and the book is of the right kiatt For
the book is the most important part
of the combination.
In planning your reading for the
long winter months, 1t is good thing
to have some definite idea in mind
some particular line along which you
would like to add to your store of in
formation. 1t may be history, biogra-
ply, science or farming 1t may be
that you would like to know more
about animals, or bug or birds. II
you take pains to plan your course of
reading carefully, you may in few
months spare time accomplish great
deal.
Suppose for example, that you are
principally interested in birds. There
are enough books, magazines and 9TH
er literature devoted to these pretty,
feathered friends so that it will be
easy to find material for the whole
winters work on this one subject.
OF course you should make notes as
you go along. In this way you can
save for future reference any scraps
of information that you may CLEAN
from the sources at your command,
and you will find, in a short time, that
you have accumulated vast fund
Of definite knowledge on the subject.
For convenience you may divide
your notebook into several sections,
under such headings as follows:
1. Glasses of birds. 2. Their nests
and nesting places. 8. Their habits
and food. 4. Description and classifi-
cation of common birds. 8. Birds
that are rare or extinct. 6. Miscel-
laneous notes and anecdotes.
Any subject may be divided in a
similar style. By following some
such methods one is enabled to put
knowledge into definite shape, which
helps one to remember and make use
of vastly more than when it is left
a mere jumble of odds and ends.
One need not-in fact should not
confine reading to only the one CEN
trail subject. Good literature of any
kind should be mixed in for the sake
of variety Every boy and girl should
acquaint themselves with the great
writer's of prose and poetry, both OF
our own and of former times, The
boy and girl in the country have no
better time for this purpose than the
stormy days and long evenings of win
ter.
