their money and come back to the home of
their ancestors, and buy one of the mod =
crate priced farms that can be had here.
We have great dairy interests in Illinois,

What Do You Want
in Gasoline Most!

IF you making your gasoline, wouldnt you strive
to make satisfactory from every standpoint rather than
little of the ordinary respect or perhaps two!
You'd probably try get gasoline that was good depend
able in starting, pickup power and mileage than
one which had wonderful pulling power the hills tor IN
stance but was low on mileage and hard to start.
The aHound dependabity which most motorists demand
the basis of Soconys decided popularity today During the
many that Socony has always consistent sasac-
been offered the motoring public But the fact that Socony
is still the popular gasoline is striking evidence that gasoline
users prefer auround excellence oneded superiority
Soconys unvaryng dependaby is the result Of the most
modern refining methods and careful testing 1t always has
the correct range of boiling ponts.drd in the right proper
ton to starting satisfactory pickup abundant
power and high mileage. (See diagram and Note)

GIVE AUTOS ON RIGHT The
RIGHT OF WAY.

If every automobile driver will adhere
strictly to the code of giving the car OF
the right the right OF way, many OF tns
fatal automobile accidents that shock the
readers of the daily papers every day car
be avoided.
This is the opinion OF Dal II Lewis,
acting executive chairman of the Ameri-
can Automobile Association, who has
been studying driving regulations Tor
many years.
"No automobile driver should be COM
PEELED to watch both sides of the street, s
said Mr. Lewis. "The rule of the road,
both in the city and in the open country,
is that the driver on the right has the
right and there should be severe
punishment for any person who violates
that rule.
"The increasing number of automobiles
that congest traffic in the cities brings
more and more to the front the question
of right of-way Most cities provide In
their ordinances that the A. A. A. system
of giving the road to the man on the
right, except on through boulevards,
should be effective, but unfortunately it
is not always observed. There is alwa.
the fellow who is willing to take
chance in order to display his driving
skill, or to show off before some fair
companion and this type of driver should
be the target for every policemen's atten-
ton.
Automobile driving should be pleas
ure There is seldom an occasion whe.
extreme haste is necessary, and the mo-
t)rist loses mighty few seconds in OBJ
serving the rights of the man on the
night. After you reach the hospital or
m )rgue, it doesn't matter much who had
the right of way, but little patience
would avoid many a run for the ambu-
lance and many an operation for the sur
geon, as well as considerable pain for the
driver who forgot to consider the other
fellows right to the right Of way"

boil (vaporize) at one uniform temperature. In
the case of water this temperature or boiling
point, is III F. However, every gasoline has

of them in fact Itis this range of boiling points
and the proportion of each group OF them

demand for income, but do not wish to
have you infer that they represent our
ideas of an ideal investment for widow
What we have tried to do is to give you
what we consider the best list under
The conditions you lay down. We would
suggest $1,000 each of Northwestern
Bell Telephone Is; United Kingdom
US, 1887; Illinois Central 6ias and
Canadian Northern 6l2s, and $500 OF
Bush Terminal Building 5s. The cost
of these bonds at current prices would
be about s4,6S5 If some preferred
stocks are to be included we would
certainly not choose Rock Island pre-
fcrred. United States Steel preferred
returns about Is per cent and American
Locomotive a little more. Ten shares
OF each would cost $2,315. The total
cost of all these stocks and bonds
would total approximately $1,000 and
would give an annual income of $445,

you have in mind buying bonds for in

lcct a more appropriate list, although
the income would not be so high Per-
haps in tho l31s I'm. however, the re-
turn would be larger than on the list
you suggest. As a general rule, we

Answer The five bonds you have in
mind arc good, in our opinion Ajax
Rubber common and American Radia-
tor commoE cannot be spoken Of in
investment terms. The former is
highly speculative, whereas American
Radiator ranks among the better grade
common stocks. We think you under
stand that the high yield on st. Paul
European Is brands them as a security
about which there is some uncertainty.
The st. Paul system has big problem
tc work out and not even the shrewdcst
railroad mon are certain that 1t can
be done within the next three years.
The St Paul is in direct competition
with at least two strong systems on
transcontincntal freight. 1t stands to
benefit materially by tho reopcning of
the Montana Copper regions and can
in general handle much greater
volume Of freight with existing facili-
ties, increasing its gross revenue with
out n corresponding increase in operat-
ing expenses, but the immediate future
is not rosy.

Answer-Each of the preferred stocks

good selection for business man. We
suggest Radiator preferred instead Of
common, From the viewpoint Of pres
ent earnings there is something to be
said in favor Of American Ice pre-
ferred On the whole, however, there
is little choice. For the sake of di-

Although generally firm undertone

Steady buying in several specialties
