The oi! business is the greatest wealth-producing busi- ness in the world, The Standard Oil Company was ded on $4,000, and now foots up to fortunes aggregating $4,000,- 000,000. Such a sum affords material for thought. Six hundred dollars invested by Andrew Carnegic pis him a mil- lionaire. A few thousand dollars invested by J. M. Guffy made not only himself a millionaire, but mumerous fortunes to others. “Coal Oil Johnny” took five million dollars’ worth of oil from a single farm of rro acres. Matthew Taylor of Cleveland, invested $400, and in two weeks made $2000. C, J. Bailey of Parkersburg, W. Va. invested $jo0, and in a month drew ont $7,500, and still held his interest.
