Samuel M. Kier a Pittsburgh druggist, conceived the idea of saving the "grease", and in 1846 he bottled it as a medicine. He believed absolutely in the greenish fluid, at first as a medicine and later on as an illuminant. The Oil was sold at fifty cents a half-pint. About 1848 Kier experimented with it for light, racking his brains for some means to get rid of the offensive smoke and odor. To be entirely successful, the Oil must have some other than its crude form. A Philadelphia chemist advised distillation, but Kier's firSt attempt was not very successful. Q Slight changes in the camphene lamp enabled him to burn the distilled Oil without smoke. Further improvements, especially the "Virna Burner", as well as in the quality of the fluid, brought "Carbon Oil" as it was usually termed nearer perfection. "Carbon Oil" sold readily for a dollar-fifty per gallon, and provided a market for all that the neighboring salt wells could produce. The dawn of a new day was breaking. Fifty cents a half-pint crude—and later on a dollar-fifty a fallon refined I The imperfect "Carbon Oil" of seventy-ve years ago cost practically seven times as much as the highly perfected Red C Oil and White C Oil, same except in color, that you can obtain so conveniently today! But if The Red C Oil and The White C Oil cost that old-time, sky-high figure of a dollar-fifty a gallon, we could give you no finer Kerosene for your Lamps, Stoves and Incubators.

CONGRESSMAN'S AUTO STOLEN FROM RENNERT HOTEL CURB. ROCKDALE WANTS SCHOOL. TRENTON LODGE TO HAVE CLASS INITIATION. Congressman Millard E. Tydings had a strenuous evening making political speeches. About midnight he parked his car in front of the Ren-nert and went to bed. At 8 A. M. the next morning he arose, rested and refreshed, and looked for his car, but it was gone. It was valued at $2400 and bore Maryland license No. 152,800. Sincere Service When Death Visits Your Home Let Us Relieve You Of All The Details of The Funeral. JOHN BURNS' SONS TOWSON, MD. Plans are being formulated by residents of Rockdale and vicinity to have the Baltimore County School Commissioners establish a public school in the vicinity of Rolling and Liberty roads. J. Albert Marriott, Jr., developer and business man of that section, together with other property owners, have signified their intention of donating land for the school. At a meeting of the Rockdale Improvement Association, at the suggestion of the Rev. William Tober, pastor of St. James* Lutheran Church, those present decided to send a large delegation of residents to the next monthly meeting of the Commissioners and urge that a school be established in the neighborhood as soon as possible. There are a number of parents in Rockdale and vicinity who are obliged to send their children to school at Randallstown, Forest Park or Howard Park. This is a long distance for the children to go, to say nothing of the cost of carfares, which works a hardship on the parents. Trenton Lodge No. 33, I. O. M., of this county, will have a rally November 18, when a large class of candidates will be admitten, according to William Willinger, past grand architect.

Open season for hidden liquor is now on. Double padlocks are making their appearance on subterranean doors and windows. Double-barreled shotguns are ready to help save the 1924-25 supply of 1912-13 grape wine and blackberry cordial. Many owners are discussing the practicability of burying their store of cobwebby flasks, red sealing wax and all, under the apple# trees pending the end of the hunting season. Several cellars have been raided during the past few nights and kegs once brimming over with pleasure are as hollow now as a big bass drum.
