"The Cleanest Story Ever Told"
The days of back-tanciing cleaning are over in the
household where Gold Dust is used. Old Fogey ideas give
way to modern methods and Gold Dust is taking the place
of all other cleaners and justly, too, for it is the only
washing powder worthy of the name. It does its work
more quickly, more thoroughly, more economically than
any other cleaner.
Do not be misled by substitutes which claim every
virtue under the sun. There is no product on the market
today that will do anywhere near the work that Gold Dust
accomplishes every dav in thousands of American homes.
Join the ranks of Gold Dust users and be a contented
housewife.
Do not uie Soap, Naphtha, Borax. Soda, Ammonia or
f !T?" Kerosene with Gold Dust. Gold Dust has all desirable i L -cleansing
qualities in a perfectly harmless and lasting
form. The Gold Dust Twins need no outside help.

Standard Oil company of New Jersey, was
th intimation emanating from the offices
of the local concern today. The fine of
. which was assessed against the
Waters-Pierce company, probably will not
be contested, the attorneys for the corpora
I Hon saying that tuey see no recourse from
thia portion of the penalty.
The Waters-Pierce company did not join
with the Standard Oil company of Indiana
i ni kie Republic Oil company of Ohio In
j lh proposition which was made to the
"JPreme court recently by which the s'.a'.e ,
wouId ,in direct voice in the manage- i
ment of those corporation's interests In Mi.
souri. Part of that proposition waa that
the to per cent of the Waters-Pierce stock
held by tha Standard company should be
pla cd in the hands of trustees appointed
by the stale and companies jointly. Tins,
the Waiers-Plerc management assert,
would result ln preventing the Missouri
corporation from severing itself from tha
foreign company's control and. they ssy,
would only strengthen tne position of tne
Standard ia th state.
