Abalard and Helojse,

Heloise was noted as much for her intellectual ability as for her personal beauty. She was familiar with the Ht- erature of four or five languages-Ital- ian, French, Greek. Latin and Hebrew. Her knowledge was remarkable; her conversational powers were brilliant It was her bright mind and varied learning that first attracted the atten- ton of Abelard. Abelard died in 1142, Heloise in 1164. First buried at St. Marcel, Abelard's remains were shifted several times. but finally reached the we'll known tomb at Pere la Chaise. wherein also rest the ashes of Heloise.

NO OIL FOUND.
Federal Survey Geologist Finds "0il
Seeps" Caused by Iron Oxide

An investigation by the United States
Geological Survey of supposed oil terri
tory near Oroville, CAL, has given mega
tive results, the oil showing" on the
surface of water having been found to be
caused by the presence OF iron oxide.
The so-called oil seeps in the vicinity
of Oroville, about which some inquiries
have been made, prove to be mainly
stains of iron and are not indications of
petroleum, according to Geologist r. w.
Pack, of the survey, who examined them
in December, 1918. These "seeps" oc-
cur on the gravel-covered mesa that lies
on the north side of Feather river OPP
posite the city of 0roville. They con-
sist of bright iridescent colors on the
surface of small pools of water and of
dark stains ON the ground, mainly near
such pools. The colors are caused by
film of iron oxide ON the surface of the
water, which produces an appearance
similar to that formed by small guam
tity of oil. 1t may be distinguished from
an oil film by the fact that it is readily
broken into small fragments when the
pool is gently stirred, whereas the col
ors of an oil film reappear unbroken
when the pool is again quiet. Pools
