Save Fuel Wisely
Saving fuel is working hand in hand with the Government these
days. And one way to save wisely and well is to use SO-CO-NY
the quality gasoline. It means minimum consumption and
maximum power.
Inferior, low-grade mixtures mean waste in the form of increased
consumption, lost "power and excessive carbon deposits.
There's power in every drop of SO-CO-NY. It's clean, quick
starting; reliable; obtainable everywhere.
Look for the Red, White and Blue SO-CO-NY Sign. It's the wise way to save fuel

AFTER THREE YEARS
Many men and women are sick and don't know it
Some never discover they have kidney trouble until
thjy apply for life insurance. The kidneys are work
ing all the time, filtering poisonous waste out of the
blood stream, and when they became weakened or de
ranged, backache, pains in sides and eroins, so-called
rheumatism, languidness, swollen joints and other
symptoms develop. W. B. Moss, Ogden, Ark., writes
"Foley Kidney Pills relieved me of severe kidney
troubles of three years' standing." Fred D. Pierce,

APPRECIATION OF PAUL L
HARRIMAN.
"Vermont Association Notes," the
official organ of the Young Men's
Christian Association of Vermont,
has the following regarding Paul L.
Harriman, whose death was recorded
in these columns in January. The
above publication kindly loaned this
paper the cut of Mr. Harriman pre
sented herewith:
"The sorrow connected with the
great war was brought home to us
Vermonters by the death of Paul L.
Harriman early in the winter, at
Camp Greene, N. C, where he was in
training in the ambulance corps. So
far as we know Mr. Harriman is
the only one thus far to give the
great sacrifice who has been actively
connected with the Y. M. C. A. in
Vermont early in the spring of
1916, Mr. Harriman became an as
stant in the state office of the Y. M.
C. A. and spent the summer in the
same capacity at Camp Abnaki, the
state Y. M. C. A. boys' camp. While
at camp Mr. Harriman made many
friends of the boys from all over the
state and also from other states.
Everyone who knew him will regret
that he has been claimed by the God
of War."

Prevent Caterpillar Plague.
The greediest thing on earth Is a
nestling bird. It consumes its own
weight of food each day, with a dally
gain of 20 to 50 per cent In growth.
Little else than mouth and stomach, it
spends nearly all its waking moments
eating. A young robin In captivity re
quires fifty earthworms per day and
asks for more. The progeny (a nestful)
of a pair of European Jays were ob
served by a naturalist to eat half a
million caterpillars iu a season !
Wall Hangings of Patchwork.
The art of making patchwork Is
ery old. It was practiced In the days
of ancient Egypt. It was not used
there for quilts, however, as the Nile
valley has a warm climate, but was
used extensively as wall hangings and
screen coverings.

Maria Theresa.
The most celebrated Instance of the
Salic law in history is the accession
of Maria Theresa, empress of Austria,
writes Fred II. Peterson in Case and
Comment. She was the only child of
Charges VI, who was emperor from
1711 to 1740. During his entire reign
he devoted himself to assure his suc
cession in Maria Theresa, making
many sacrifices and treaties to accom
plish that purpose. The Salic law ex
cluded her from her father's throne,
but in 1713 he caused an act to be
passed, known as the Pragmatic Sanc
tion, which suspended the Salic law
in so far as she was concerned.
Extracting Broken Screw.
A tool for extracting broken set
screws is described by the Scientific
American as resembling a drill with a
coarse left-handed thread. A hole is
drilled into what remains of the screw
or bolt, the extractor is inserted and
as it turns it exerts a reverse influ
ence on the broken screw and backs
the' latter out on its own thread.
