Saturday, March 15, 1924—Page 10 THE JEFFERSON1AN. TOWSON, MARYLAND CART WHEEL," AS THE SILVER DOLLAR IS SOMETIMES CALLED, NOW LITTLE USED Currency Official Says Extending Circulation Useless Because People Will Not Have Them—Paper Dollars More Convenient And Easier To Carry. (From the Washington Correspondent of The Jeffersonian.) The old silver dollar, variously referred to as iron man, sinker, and what not, is fast going out of existence. People will not use it any more. DEATH CLAIMS MRS. MARY V. P. YELLOTT—END COMES AT DAUGHTER'S HOME IN EASTON, PA. Mrs. Mary V. P. Yellott, widow of Major John I. Yellott, died at Easton, Pa.

YAGER'S LINIMENT RELIEVES PAIN GILBERT BROS.* CO., Baltimore,Md. Testifying before the House Appropriations Committee, William S. Broughton, Commissioner of the Public Debt, quoted officials of the Federal Reserve Banks as saying they were unable to extend the circulation of silver dollars because people would not take them. Paper dollars are more convenient to carry and therefore more popular, he said. Accordingly Government officials are asking for an increased appropriation to be used in printing a larger amount of paper dollars. Over one hundred million more silver certificates are needed, the committee was told. Of all kinds of currency there are now in circulation 784,000,000 notes, Commissioner Broughton said. Seventy-five per cent, of these are $1 notes. Asked to explain the increased demand for dollar bills, Commissioner Broughton said apparently the people are carrying around more currency. He was unable to say whether the tremendous circulation of $1 indicates a greater or less degree of extravagance. "You might figure it either way," he said. "They are either spending more money or spending it in smaller sums." OLIVIER ACQUIRES FOUR LOTS ON CHARLES ST. AVENUE. Stuart Olivier and wife have acquired title to four lots on Charles Street avenue, near Wyndhurst avenue, opposite the entrance to Homeland, the Perine estate, for about $29,000 in fee, according to the record of deeds filed. Three of the lots were acquired from George E. Saulsbury and wife and the other from H. A. B. Dunning and wife, Mr. Olivier's plans, at the time of the purchase, were for the erection of a large apartment house which would provide an unusual sort of country home. The erection of this, however, depends upon the outcome of a deal to sell his country estate, Five Farms, near Lutherville, to the Baltimore Country Club, which has a 60-day option upon the property. -----------o----------- ARCH-BISHOP CONFIRMS CLASS AT ST.

Until 1782 all lamps ¦were ill—made, smoky instruments, tilling tLe air with soot and" a stifling odor. At that time a Swiss physician, Aime Argand, made what was perhaps tke greatest step forward in tke history of Oil Lamps. He invented tke circular wick and tke lamp ckimney. I ATER, in 1846, a Mr. Gessner manufactured an illuminating Oil from tke aspkaltic albertite found in County Albert, New Brunswick, and called it Kerosene. Tke older name of "coal oil", however, is still used somewhat in America. Circular Wicks, Lamp Chimneys, Kerosene. We take them all as a matter of fact nowadays. Yet all honor is due the men who gave them to us. The Red "C" Oil Co. today is producing Kerosene of a quality that surpasses by far the fondest imaginings of Gessner. The Red "C" Oil and The White "C" Oil, same except in color, is the ideal Kerosene for your Lamps and Incubators. The Red "C" Oil Highest quality, witk attractive red coloring added. The White "C" Oil A pure white Kerosene, crystal clear. Uniformly excellent. NO SMOK6 - NO ODOR At the following good dealers: G. B. Caltrider, Reisterstown, Md. Robert Corbett& Son. Pikesville, Md.
