Chicago, Aug. 1s.-It is a rather
interesting fact that the two lead

THE Standard Oh Company (Ind.

reduction in the price Of gasoline Of
&c per gallon applicable throughout the
entire territory in which it does business.
Il asserts that the retail prices thus
made are below the cost Of production
and distribution.
The Governor of the State Of South
Dakota, buying distress gasoline below
cost Of production, and charging against
the State no adequate cost Of distribu-
ton, is selling gasoline to the public in
the State Of South Dakota at Ice per

South Dakota be made applicable in

states and communities over the terri

prices hitherto established and main

In establishing the above price, the
Standard Oil Company (1ndiana) is
not endeavoring to injure any Of its

: It deprecates the stand taken by some
Of its competitors that the Standard Oil

reason Of meeting these cuts in price and
these demands for lower prices. to put

The Standard OIL Company (Indiana)

not only it but all Of its competitors to

It recognizes that the majority of its
competitors are fine business men, en-

to one where the butcher, the grocer, the

PAPYRUS BOOKS WERE ROLLS
Modern Term "VoIume" Has Been
Found to Have Had Its Origin In
these Cylindrical Works.

In forming papyrus into books Il
was customary among the ancients to
use a long sheet or web of 1t, and rod
1t upon a stick, al is the custom In re
spect to maps at the present day, says
the Detroit News. The writing was In
columns, each of which formed a sort
Of page, the reader holding the ends OF
the roll In his two hands and reading nc
the part which was open between
them. AS he advanced he continually
unrolled on one side and rolled up on
the other.
The term volume" used in respect
to modern books, had Its origin In this
ancient practice of writing upon long
rolls. The long sheet was rolled upon
a wooden billet, which gave the volume
a certain frmness and solidity, and az
forded 1t great protection.
The ends of the roller projected be-
yond the edges Of the sheet and were
terminated In knobs or bosses, which
guarded In some measure the edges OF
the papyrus or rolls of parchment,
which were often made In the same
manner. The whole volume was also
inclosed In a parchment case, on tho
outside Of which the title of the wort
was co~nspicuously recorded.

CHAPTER XIV

Tho Bottle Emperor Returns.

Tho Bottle Emperor Returns.
Across the mile-wide lagoon in the
still hot dusk the last buccaneers of
LATTE listened to the battle in the
forest river-the rattle of musketry,
and then the boom of the Seraphine's
carronades. And strange as 1t fell out,
the castaways wished for the Span
iards to win. They had no hope of
escape for themselves, hut their hatred
of Cr~ackley's mutineers was stronger
than their hereditary feud with the
sea power of the Spanish king.
So the fugitives lay and listened to
the distant battle for the rescue ship
of Bonaparte. At times, behind the
fringe Of forest swamp, arose the
crash of musket fire, and then the
bark Of the -Seraphine's guns. And
presently this last ceased; the ragged
volleys of small arms burst irregularly,
died out, renewed; became single
shots blotted out by the tropic ST.
lence. The Catalan swung to his feet
and tied his bloody head scarf tighter.
II say 1t Is the end. Murillo's men
are swarming over" 1t seemed that
a faint burst of cheering came from
under the landward stars. Nez Coupe
beckoned to his fellows. 1.-The captain
will want the word back at the lady's
shelter tent. He will send her and

Spaniards' boats when they come out

But presently the captain. himself,
and Beluche, the admiral, came through
