mit from the Btand thut Mr.

sented himself to her us a single
man and that she so regarded him
during the time he wuh alleged to
have been a wooer ami following
their alleged exchange of promise.i
to wed. The defense did not bring
out clearly at just what point iu
their relations the locket incident
occurred.
An allegation of the complaint

lect big damages to compensate
for the alleged fraud und deceit
practiced upon her was that Mrs.
Lulu 1. ilaynes, wife of the de
fendant, allowed the letters Mrs.

tion of the humiliation she lino
said Hhe suffered, the plaintiff

The Consolidated Motor Freight Lines, Inc.,

problem by standardizing on Zerolene.
Independent Tests Verify Claims
Subjecting the anti-western oil superstition to
the test of actual comparison in service, this
Company verified independently our claims that
Zerolene will lubricate the modern automobile
engine as well or better than any oil on the
market, irrespective of price, and whether of
eastern or western origin. Their letter states:
"During the past throe or four years we have exper
imented with various brands of eastern and western
lubricating oils, including Zerolene oil. The results
of these tests have proved to our satisfaction that
Zerolene lubricates our equipment with the greatest
eliiciency.
"Our recent decision to lubricate our trucks exclu
sively with Zerolene oils has resulted in the reduc
tion to a minimum of mechanical difficulties which
were due to faulty lubrication."
Less Carbon Better Gasoline Mileage
Why pay tribute to a superstition? The use of
Zerolene, of the proper body, will not only cut
down your oil bill, but give you better continu
ous lubrication, and better lubrication means
greater gasoline mileage, less carbon, lower up
keep costs, and n longer life for your car.
Insist on Zerolene, even if it does cost
less.
