Four-Figure Offer
For 'Self-Rocking'
Chair Proposed
Muscatine, la., May 5 (U.R)
The price-tag on Mr. and Mrs.
Floyd Holladay's "self-rocking"
chair topped the $1,000 mark
today.
The Holladays said a man
who wanted his identity kept
secret made them a four-figure
offer. But they said they de
cided to wait for a still better
one.
Meanwhile, they said, the
strange old rocking chair keeps
on rocking, untouched by hu
man hands.
Admission Considered
Mrs. Holladay said she is con
sidering charging admission to
the curiosity seekers who have
thronged her home to watch the
red-upholstered chair's strange
antics.
The Holladays had been hav
ing "open house" for the curi
ous and the skeptical, but they
soured on visitors when some
one sat in the chair and the arm
broke off. n
No one has yet given a satis
factory explanation of the phen
omenon, Mrs. Holladay said.
The Holladays and their three
sons have moved the chair into
each room of their frame house,
but it makes no difference.
The chair just keeps rocking.

Good news gets around. 43 of all M.J.B uteri first
tried it because friends and neighbors recommended it.
Smart shoppers say thst money spent on M.J.B coffee
is a sure thins; every rich satisfying cupful is guaron-
teed good. That's because M.J.B is a perfect flavor
"v! balanced blend of several world-fumed coffees, the
beat grown. Brewed mild, strong, in-between, with drip
or regular grind, success u certain witn M.J.B.
"It's loyal coffee," a friend ones said, meaning that
M.J.B is so carefully roasted that iu famous flavor never
varies; it's always good. The secret lies in sn "indi
vidual bean roasting process" which, along with highest
vscuum pack, makes sure you get lots of eitra deep
down coffee goodness for your money. Try it; you will
see. "You can't make a bad cup of M.J.B.'

In the Western desert country where 130 in the shade is considered "cool," and where every mile is torture..,
...Folks who know will tell you that more people prefer "RPM" than any other brand of motor oill f
Maybe it's news to you . . . that broiling-hot as your engine gets
when you're out on the desert, it gets even hotter when you stop!
Ordinary oils 'Jrun away" from heat like that.. . leave hot spots
bare and unprotected. But not RPM Motor Oil! It's compounded
to cling to hot metal . . . give you the best engine insurance you can
buy . . . For example, one fleet of vehicles, operating on "RPM,"
in the Mojave Desert, Death Valley and southern Nevada, traveled
over seven million miles last year without a single failure
due to motor oil. Try "RPM" in yomr car!
