GASO-TONIC EXPOSED BY LADD.
We have had fake doctors, quacks
and nostrums for the cure Of all sorts
of ills of man and beast. Some Of
the worthless products have been sold
at fabulous prices, and are expected
to rejuvenate the old and wornout to
youthful vigor. :,
Now we have the fake doctor who
would treat our gasoline, although of
inferior quality, so that it shall pos
sess wonderfully marked improve
ment, and one of these products, our
Lob. No. 939, Gaso-Tonic," is sold at
5000 per quart or $500 per gallon.
When two tablespoonful Of this sub
stance are added to five gallons Of
gasoline it is said to enliven the gas
oline and improve its quality very ma
terially. This preparation, according
to analysis as made of sample sub
mitted to this laboratory, is nothing
more than an inferior grade of gaso-
line of the class usually spoken of as
"power" gasoline. In other words it
would seem that you are asked to pay
$500 for a poor grade Of gasoline,
THAT could be purchased for 20 cents
per gallon), add little of the expen-
sive product to the cheaper product
and then imagine that the whole lot
has been wonderfully improved there

lively grouped around the huge pillars
in the main corridor. The ticket Ia
bic even had black cat standins

guests as they walked to the dressing
rooms. When the guests arrived they
found the ball room lighted only by
the Pickering light of the candles in
nImpkin lanterns. These had been
nlaced or the high window sills in the
ball room, embedded in banks of
leaves and branches. Rows of Jack
o'Ianterns were placed about the Or
