owner of one of the greatest news
paper successes on the continent,
his death marked the passing of a
premier news figure of the last

will and courage that marked his
efforts In building a great metro

year old publisher In his last
hours.
He fought off 111 health for years
in order to go dally to the down
town office of his paper. Mr. Law
Hon became seriously HI only three
days ago. It was a recurrence of
myocarditis, although his asso
ciates said overwork had contri
buted to his condition. Given strict
orders by his physicians to remain
n bed he was unable to stand the
enforced Inaction.
On Tuesday, against the advices
of doctors, he Insisted on getting
out of bed and sat up for a time.
Yesterday morning he had a re
lap.se but rallied and It was not
until late Inst night that he suf
fered a sinking spell and died.

Mr. Stone In turn sold his Interest
to Mr. Lawson, who took charge of
the paper with Mr. stone as ed
itor. To preserve the Independence
of the paper, each man agreed to
buy no securities of public service
corporation from his share of the
profits. He succeeded and In 1881
started a morning edition and sev
en yeara later Mr. Lawson pure has
ed Mr. Stone's Interest, and be
came sole proprietor. Soon after
ward he changed the name of hJs
morning publication to the Chicago
Record, later merging It with the
Times Herald when he called it
the Record-Herald. Because he
did not wish to be connected with
a paper publishing on Sunday he
turned over the property of the
Record-Herald to bondholder In
1814, making them a present of
the capital stock of a par value of
$2,800,000.
One of the principles to which
Mr. Lawson always attributed tbe
success of the News was Its wealth
of features, particularly those of
interest to women readers, Includ
ing short stories, anecdotes and
fashions.
Aside from his newspaper ca
reer, Mr. Lawson was intensely In

Is
F not, why, when ho looks at
Ma legs, does he always lower
. his tail? Medieval nature-fak
ers puzzled over this and other
. entertaining superstitions.
Today wo know better, and we
are fast getting away from other
popular superstitions, as, for in
stance, that there is something
mysteriously"better" about "east
ern" motor oils merely because
they cost more and are made in
the East.
Superstitioni Pass the Facts
Prove Zerolene's Superiority
As a matter of tact, there is no
better motor oil than Zerolene,
which Is produced right here on
the Pacific Coast from selected
western naphthenlo base crude,
refined by this Company's patented
high vacuum process, submitted
to 15 positive checks for quality.
Experienced Automobile Men
Disregard Oil Superstitions
Experienced automobile men
pay no tribute to superstition
theygaugea lubricant not by price
or where it comes from but by
car performance and low main
tenance costs. Zerolene is not only
successfully lubricatingmorecars
in the Pacific Coast states than any
other oil made; it is used and
recommended by automobile agen
cies and big users of such cele
brated makes as Cadillac, Chrysler,
Insist on Zerolene
even if
it does cost less
Dodge, Lincoln, Packard, Pierce

tor oil economy is not a matter of
price per quart, but what the lub
ricant does.
