mission to get action of any kind un
til the Keller impeachment proceed
ing against Daugherty were started.
Then Daugherty seemed a little more
interested in the tobacco situation.
He even pent some atto:
the dffpffrtment to confer with the
Trade Commission, but even after
that nothing resulted. Every tobac
co ease remained unprosecuted.
Senator Wheeler caused a laugh
when at this point he said, “Well,
the Keller investigation did some
good, then, after all.” V
Thompson’s testimony links the
former attorney general with neg
lect of duty and wrongdoing more
thoroughly than any evidence that
has yet been produced. The expecta
tion is that the tobacco probe pro
ceeds further inactivity will be dis
closed for there are a great many
^ases pending against the tobacco
companies in which so far the Com
mission knows absolutely nothing has
been done.
The Committee is now seeking the -
reason why Daugherty failed, neg
lected and refused to prosecute the
Tobacco Trust.

Edward A. Marshall, nationally* 1
known authority on landscape garden
ing, will be heard at the coming Red-
path Chautauqua in) a highly llluml>
nating and helpful discussion on
‘'Landscaping.” v.
Mr. Marshall has made a lifelong
study of landscape gardening in Its
relation to more attractive home Bur* 1
roundings. For the prospective buyi
of property he gives important Infov
matlon regarding the selection of «
home site; while for the renter, the
homeowner of average means, or the
possessor of a large estate, his plana
for making the grounds more attrac
tive are thoroughly practical, and at
the same time productive of highly aft
tistlc results.
To Illustrate the various points of
his lecture, Mr. Marshall arranges on
a huge screen before his audience
realistically-painted pictures of a
house, the grounds, trees, shrub*
walks, etc., until a well-landscaped en
semble Is clearly depicted.
Mr. Marshall has occupied a promi
nent place on the programs of numar*
ous “Better Homes Expositions” held
in the larger cities throughout the
country. •

You can’t tell much about lubricating
oils by their appearance. They all look
more or less alike. You can’t judge vis
cosity and wearing quality by looks.
The color is about as important as the
cover of a book.

You can safeguard yourself by always
asking for your oil by name. The good
name of a good oil iryour best guarantee
of getting what you want. It insures
uniform quality, too.' A nameless oil
may be anything. See the tank from
which your oil is taken."

For your own sake and for the health
of your hard-working engine—select a
good oil and then always buy it by name*

If you had time to make exhaustive tests
you would decide on “Standard” Polar
