Oil PrOfiteers Have
Brand New Scheme

A case of bare-faced misrepresenta-
ton by a company engaged in selling
oil stock is brought to the attention
of the public by the director of the
United States geological survey. In
the advertising matter of this COM
pany, in order to impress the reader
with the belief that the government
has Endorsed the particular enterprise
as "sure thing" a map Of the re-
gion published by the Federal Geo
logical Survey is said to be repro
duced. On the map as printed in the
rather elaborate prospectus a route
of supposed oil drainage extends from
the st. Lawrence river, in Canada,
southwestward across the Adiron-
dacks and the intervening States to
a point on the Mississippi river. An
other route of presumed oil drainage
is shown as extending from the Lake
Superior iron region across Wiscon-
sin, Illinois, and southwark along the
Mississippi. A third route of drain
age is mapped as extending from the
Canadian boundary, in western Mon
tana. through the Yellowstone Park,

Louisiana. AS is usual in stock pro-
motion literature where such bogus
maps are used to beguile the small in
weston, the three purported drainage
routes unite exactly in the area where
the company properties are located,
which area in this particular instance
lies on the east side of the Mississippi
river in Louisiana. The title of this
map reads Omitted States Geological
Survey map showing center OF the
oil drainage of United States On
another page of their pamphlet under
the heading "What Uncle Sam says
about it." the promoters say Look at
the map which shows the result OF the
United States Geological Survey. The
man was made from plate l, bulletin
429. This survey shows the oil drain
age of the United States. As you can
readily see, our holdings are right in
the center of II. The government
biologists are unprecedented and their
conclusions are always regarded as
authentic and final"
So far as the last sentence Is true,
Director Smith of the United States
Geological Survey states without
nreiudice that his "final conclusion"
IS that the authors and makers OF
this prospectus are plain crooks. There
is no resemblance or connection be-
tween the government map specifically
referred to and the oil map OF the
promoters. Nor did the Geological
Survey or any other authority ever
publish such a drainage" map. 1t
IS not only fraudulent and untruthful
in every respect but absurd to the
extreme. Judged by their advertis-
ing matter alone. the promoters are
either crude crooks on their own ac-
count or the supplemented dupes of
their experts" In either case they
are not trustworthy advisers of the
small investors to whom they make
their appeal.

IF KIDNEYS ACT
BAD TAKE SALTS
Says Backache Often Means You
Have Been Eating Too
Much Meat

When you wake up with backache
and dull misery in the kidney region
it may mean you have been eating
too much meat. says a well-known
authority. An excess Of meat may
form uric acid, which overworks the
kidneys in their effort to filter it from
the blood and they become sort OF
paralyzed and loggy. When your kid
neys get sluggish and clog You must
relieve them, like you relieve your
bowels, removing all the body's urin-
Gus waste, else you have backache,
sick headache, dizzy spells; your
stomach sOurs, tongue is coated, and
when the weather is bad you have
rheumatic twinges The urine is cloudy
full of sediment. channels often get
sore, water scalds and you are OBJ
ligated to seek relief two or three
times during the night.
Either consult a good, reliable
physician at once or get from your
pharmacist about four ounces of Jad
Salts; take tablespoonful in a glass
of water before breakfast for few
days and your kidneys may then act
fine. This famous salts is made from
the acid Of grapes and lemon juice,
combined with lithia, and has been
used for generations to clean and
stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to
neutralize acids in the urine so it no
longer irritates, thus often ending
bladder weakness.

THE BEARD

The Egyptians did not wear boards
the ASsyrians did.
Boards were worn by the Romans
rs far back as 800 B. c.
Boards have been worn for centur
les by the Jews, who were forbidden
10 mar" their boards, 1890 B. {.
The Tartars waged n long war with
the Persians. declaring them intidels
because they would not cut their
boards. after the custom of Tartary.
The Greeks wore their boards until
the time of Alexander who ordered
TIE Macedonians to be shaved, lest
the beard should give handle to
their enemies, $50 b. c
Peter the Great Q672-l725) en-
io;ned the Russians. even of rank, to
shave. but was obliged to keep OH
GERS on foot to cut off the beard by
force.
In England until the thirteenth cen
turv boards were not fashionable.
About 1851 the custom OF wearing the
beard increased in Great Britain un-
til about 1890. when mustaches only
Eecame popular; after about 1905 It
became the fashion to wear no halr
OF any kind on the face.
Apart from its ancient religious
significance. shaving had its uses in
military purposes. The beard form
cd a too covenient handle in the COM
bats of oldeu days and Alexander the
Great. accordingly, issued on army or
Der to shave. 1t is curious to notice
the reversions of fashion in the mat
ter. The huge monuments of the As
svrians show the conuuering armies
full bearded and only the slaves and
cartives shaven. but at later per
ioG it was the Norman conquerors
who were clean-chinned, and the
bearded barbarianS who were the con
ouered.
