The Secret of Motor Car Economy
lies in the use of a perfect lubricating oil, ? an oil that eliminates
friction and allows all the power of the engine to be utilized.
The Standard Oil for Motor Cars
accomplishes exactly these results. Hundreds of owners of
motor trucks tell us that ZEROLENE is one of
,v the main factors in the reduction of their main
tenance charges.

She Took to the
By BERTHA L. TOMUN3
All civil wars are terrible, but all
civil wnrs nro full of romance. Thin In
because people divided and trying to
kill one another brings greater grief
than when thoy fight a foreigner.
Gertrude Mllhank, the daughter of
n country gentleninn of Devonshire,
found herself nt the time Cromwell be
came ruler of England under the title
of lord protector? her father nud two
brothers having been killed lighting for
(heir king? an orphan and without any
one to lean upon, ner father's estate
had been forfeited, and she had no
means of sustenance. Reared In lux
ury she was brought face to face with
In that age two professions were
practiced by gentlemen, one of which
Is now obsolete, while the other has
been relegated to the criminal classes.
These were highway robl>ery and pi
racy. The hlghwnyman was a popular
character/ while Morgan, the most
brutally bloodthirsty of pirates, died in
Knglnud unpunished for his man}
crimes At the end of the war that
lost Charles 1. his kingdom and his head
many of the young officers, who hail
fought for him being Impoverished
took lo the rond for a living. Gertrude
Mllltank. bitter against the Itoundhoads
who had beheaded her king, killed hct
father and brothers and robbed her of
her patrimony, having heard of these
cases of ex-soldiers turning highway
inen. determined to imitate their ex
ample. She stood live feet eight inches
and was a marvel of beauty and stale
liuess. The former did not serve her
purpose, for while on the road she
was masked, but the latter helped hei
to maintain the appearance of a man.
Ilnvlng attired herself In the male
costume of the l>erlod. her own black
hair falling In curls over her broad
white lace collar, booted and spurred,
mounted on a horse she had ridden
constantly since she was a little girl,
she sallied forth one starlight night to
take a purse. Having waited for some
time behind a clomp of trees for the
passage of. a victim sho at Inst heard
the sounds of wheels. Her courage
was oozing out of her finger ends, but
she stopped It by recalling the wrongs
of her family and. riding Into the rond.
' called upon the coachman to stop. He
obeyed, nnd Gertrude, putting a plutol
i In through the window of the coach.
I called out in somewhat tremulous
I tones:
"Your money or your me:
There was no reply for n few mo
mentK. then n man's voice said: "I hnve
but n few poandft in iny pocket to
which yof are welcome, sir. But I
wenr n rlug of considera l>le vnliie
which you will lie able to turn Into
money."
"Such liberality." replied Gertrude,
"could not come from an accursed
Itoundhead. You must be a loyal sub
ject of oar king across the water: there
fore I shall let you pass without trib
ute. for I will take nothing from one
of the king's party."
Gertrude was about to whirl her
horse's head around when the man In
the coach stopped her.
"You are mistaken." he snld. "I
would not save my -property under
false pretenses: I support the protec
tor."
Such action was a surprise to Ger
trude, who could not understand why
the man should give her Information
unasked and with It property he might
have saved. While she hesitated her
victim got out a wallet, took a ring
from IiIm linger and handed both to
her. She accepted them mechanically,
her mind being diverted by the man's
strange action.
"You need not take the trouble to
raise money from the ring." lie added.
"It Is an heirloom, and I prefer to re
deem it"
"I shall not make myself known by
calling upon you to do so." replied Ger
trude. "Rather keep It"
"Drive on." wns the only reply, and
this was uddressed to the coachman,
who whipped up his horses, resuming
the Journey. As the carriage drove
away tho man within called out. "1
will call upon you when 1 wish to re
deem the ring. Miss Milbank. and will
give you thrice what you can get for It
elsewhere."
As the conch rolled away Gertrude
sat on her horse paralyzed. The man
till he spoke the last words disguised
his voice and she had not recognized
It. She hail robbed one to whom when
the war broke out she was engaged,
but whose father had persuaded him
to espouse the cause of the parliament.
The son had refused to listen to Ger
trude's efforts to retain his loyalty for
the klnc. and when he broke with his
king she forced him to break with her.
The recognition was quite enough to
cure her on It* very threshold of any
desire to follow the career of a hlgi
waynian and. riding back to the cot
tage she had come from, she divested
herself of male attire and resumed her
wonted garments.
The next morning she was meditat
ing hiding herself from the man she
had robbed and wondering bow she
could return his property before doing
so, when he rode up to her door, dis
mounted nnd entered the house.
"1 have come to redeem my ring.
Gertrude," ho snld.
"Taking it from her linger, she hand
ed it to him without a word, but In
tending to refuse his offer of money.
Instead of handing her gold he took
her hand and placed tho ring on her
finger.
Then her head tank on hU breaflt.
