O Whether your washing goes
fast or slow, whether clothes come
out white or gray, depends large
" upon Suds.
Richer suds give so much bet
ter results and in much less time.
Now comes a new soapadis-
covery with a wonderful sudsing
power.
Its name is Oxydol. 1t lightens
every washing task.
Oxydol is supercharged with
pure, rich soap for 500 more
suds than other soaps in granu-
lated form. They are the lasting
est, workingest suds you've ever
tried.
Richer suds saUe cork for you
Because they are liveIier and
richer, Oxydol suds do more
of the hard work for you,
saving your strength and
energy.
Weak, old-type suds fail
to get things really clean
because they soon fizzle

Cut This Tax

FIGURES have been compiled by the ST. Paul Pion-
eer Press which show that armed bandits took
practically 100000 from % banks in Minnesota
during the first nine months of this year.
Tolls at the institutions listed range from $4,000
taken by machine gunners Staples to one ilI-pan-
ned raid at Harris which resulted in the of the
amateur bandit without loss to the bank.
Officers working have secured arrests in
half dozen cases and convictions in part of these.
Successful robberies have been more frequent
since the building Of paved highways, and fast cars
which take the raiders away from the scene of their
crimes rapidly and allow them to become lost in large
cities. Telephone and radio communications, however,
should offset the advantages the bandits have and
lead to more arrests. More cooperation between
county authorities and help from the state should
lead to enough convictions make Minnesota an un-

Many people who take government
jobs early in life, remain working for
Uncle Sam until far late in life. For
instance, Mrs. Anna M. Colclazier be-
came government employee during
the administration of Chester "A.
Arthur, nearly fifty years ago. Last
week she retired from the Treasury
Department, with an appreciate PEN
sion. Incidentally, might state, the
father of this venerable woman, was
also a government worker. He was
a member of the posse which, it is
believed, captured John Wilkes Booth,
the assassin. l say, that the posse is
believed to have captured Booth, for
the reason that it has repeatedly been
rumored that the actor-murderer was
not really taken at all, but that he
was spirited away and that he lived
to old age at some point in the south
where he was seen and recognized
repeatedly by sympathizers.

A Fortune Out of Air

q HORTLY after the close of the civil young
inventor, just past Fl, endeavored to interest old
- Commodore Vanderbilt in a brake for railroad
trains, to be operated by compressed air.
After listening with Impotence to the proposition,
the Commodore asked whether the inventor really
meant that he could stop rushing train with nothing
but air. He answered in the affirmative.
"Then get out of here, he said, 81 have no time to
waste on FOOLS"
The young inventor George Westinghouse,
who shortly afterwards perfected his air brake and
after many discouragements succeeded in placing it
the market.
To make his triumph complete, the first big order
for the Westinghouse air brake from Com
modore Vanderbilt ET$
This invention and others made Westinghouse a
fortune and when he died in 1914 he was rated among
the wealthy of America, the of his air brake
having become almost universal.
His early struggles typical of those of many
other young with idea and nothing else, but
he more fortunate than most of them. He did
ultimately reap the rewards of his genius while many
inventors, through lack of business ability, de-
frauded out of theirs.
