him on a dray. It was a hard task;

accident; and with apparently little
inconvenience to the horse. The
horse cost Mr. Sheridan $2,200 at

lose.. The trio, was taken in the

The Standard Oil Code.
Here is the Code of Standard Oil, as
given iu the August number of Eveiy
body'a by Thos. W Lawson, continuing
his Story of Amalgamated, a "Standard
Oil" product. The penalty for infring
ing the following rules is instant re
moval of the offender's bead :
1, Keep your mouth closed, as silence
s gold, and gold is what we exist for.
2. Collect our debts teday. Pay the
other fellow's debts tomorrow. Today is
always here, tomorrow may sever come.
3. Conduct all our business so that
the buyer and. seller must come to us.
Keep the seller waiting. The longer be
waits the less he'll take. Hurry the
buyer as his money brings us interest.
5. Make all profitable bargains in the
name of "Standard Oil" debatable ones
in the name of dummies. "Standard
Oil" never goes back on a bargain.
5. Never put "Standard Oil" trades
in writing, as your memory and the
other fellow's forgetfulness will almost
always be reinforced with our organiza
tion. Never forget our Legal Depart
ment is paid by the year, and our land
is fall of courts and judges. .
6. As competition is the life of trade
oar trade; and monopoly the death of
trade oar competitors' trade; employ
both judiciously. '
- 7. Never enter into a butting contest
with the government. Our government
by, the people and fop (be - people, and
we are the people, and those people wto
are no$ us can be hired by us.
8. Always do right. Bight makes
might, might makes dollars, dollars
makes right, and we have the dollars.
