IN PREHISTORIC TIMES. Neither of these experiments left mach mark on commercial history, and it was left for Ludwig Nobel, the Swede whe developed Baku, brother of the inventor of dynamite, to introduce the oil-tank steamers about 1878 first on the Caspian and Valga, and then in the Mediterranean. The oil fields of Baku are the commercialised development of the spered: fises of Zorastrianism. U til very lately there sat a prick in a temple.tending the sacred fire side by side with Nobel's huge oiltank. Ludwig Noble seems to have mentally connected his refined oil with the world's great teachers.

There was in 1832a great fight instigated by the Rockefellers (who then had no raskers) against piltankers to pas through the Suez Canal; but Messrs.
