"He Had Insurance In The New York Life"
His old horse died and his mule went lame.
And lie lost his cow in a poker game.
A cyclone came one summer day
And blew his house and barn away.
Then an earthquake followed to make it good
And swallowed the ground where the house had stood;
And then the mortgage man came ’round
And heartlessly claimed the hole in the ground.
This shock was so great that he up and died
And his widow and children wept and cried.
But something was left for the kids and wife—
For he had insurance in the NEW YORK LIFE.

Easy Way To Clean Feed
Pipe On Kerosene Stove
A friend of ours suggested this
way (right) to make sure the
flow of Pearl Oil isn’t restricted
in your kerosene stove.
A bit of rag on a rifle ramrod
or length of wire made from a
coat hanger is handy for this
job. Swabbing will remove dust
that naturally accumulates.
Pearl Oil, the King of Kero
senes, comes to you free of every
impurity. It doesn’t cause
smoke, sogt or leave keroseney
odors. Every drop burns-gives
you more heat and light for your
kerosene dollar.
Because Pearl Oil is so carefully
refined, it eliminates
troubles often found
with ordinary kero
senes. Call us about
Pearl Oil today. We
will show you the
prompt service on
which our business
is based.
