o TRUTH No 6 Oil is now California's biggest industry bigger than g ld. Oil is an extremely profitable business when handled as a business proposition. Tin demand for oil is greater than the supply. The demand grows greater daily. It is the only fuel now in use ou the Pacific Coast by railroads, steamboats, factories and office buildings. Japan is using millions of barrels of oil on her warships. The United States w ill unquestionably use oil in the Navy, which will mean millions more. Oil is cheaper than the cheapest coal. It is the safest, most economical, cleanest and the easiest fuel to handle. Oil will soon be the fuel of the world. The California Oil Fields are now by far the biggest producers of fuel oil in the world. The supply is apparently inexhaustible. Three pipe lines, costing about $10,000,000 each, pump oil to tide-water, where it is transported to all parts of the world. A pipe line, costing $25,000,000 is about to be built into Arizona, to supp'y the smelters with cheap fuel. The price of oil at ths well is now around 60c a barrel it will go up. California oil stock is the most profitable as well as safest investment ever offered the public, providing the oil com panies are good, substantial companies. California oil presents an opportunity to the capitalist and the wage-earner alike. Bankers, business men, clerks, laborers, both men and women, are investing whether a million or a few dollars, they are investing for big dividends and immense returns and they are getting them NOW. Many millionairs have been made from California oil in the past ten years. Millionaires are now being made month after mouth. The small investor may not be able to make a million dollars, but he can make more money safely and honestly from a few dol lars than he can from a year's toil. Now is the time for you 1o invest.

Hundreds of People Unable to bain Admittance to Circus in 8. F. For the first time in the history of the Tented Shows making their an nual pilgrimage to San Francisco, thousands of people have been turned away unable to gain admission to the delights of the circus In San Fran cisco last week. This is the record of the Sells Floto Show appearing in San Fran cisco last week, if wo are to take the evidence of the daily pupers of that city to substantiate this state ment. Never before, perhaps, has such unqualified public approval been given any circus by the resi dents of that city. All the more In teresting to us, perhaps, because the Sells Floto Bhow Is billed to appeur here on ednesuay next, tomorrow. While It Is true that this circus comes to us this year more thorough ly equipped In its appointments and greater in every way than ever be fore, still the major reason for pub lic patronage perhaps lies in the fact that the standard price of admission has been cut in half. To those who follow the happen ings in the world of great amuse ments' the rumbling of the circus war has a familiar sound.

This year, however, the Sells Floto people have carried war right down into Egypt. They have done some thing never before attempted or even suggested in the conduct of a masto donic attraction fo the nominal sum of twenty-five cents it is now possible for anyone to gain admission to the mighty canvass and see the whole show In Its entirety. "This offer is made without any reservation or evasion on our part," said Mr. Bennett, who was here a few days ago representing the pro prietors. "It was simply a case with us of finding ourselves saddled with a desperate fight. Other theatrical and circus battles have been con ducted mainly through the columns of the public press, but heretofore the public has never benefitted any further than reading the lengthy manifestos issued by belligefant managers, and they always had to pay the same old price when they faced the treasurer at the box office. We don't propose to carry on a news paper war. we simply go to the peo ple with this offer and since the opening of the season we have played to capacity at every performance. Of course, there Isn't much money in this fight for us, but the public will benefit and our rivals will discover that when they started In to fight us something will happen every minute if it doesn't we will make it happen." The usual parade will be given on Wednesday morning. May 18, through the principal streets of the city. Buy Fruit Jars Now!
