STUDY YOUR TONGUE.
It Is Monitor That Registers Your
Physical Condition.

One of the first things doctor does
when he is called To latielD is TO
look into his mouth That is because
if is the quickest and easiest way to
examine an internal cavity Of the body
and observe the signs of health or dis
ease there displayed. The mouth is
lined with mucous membrane. which IS
quickly affected by MANY disorders,
and the tongue. which is simply mass
of muscle wrapped up in mucous mem
brane is veritable horizontal guide
post.
Since it il muscle its general size
and shape and it's susceptibility to
proper control inform the physician OF
the muscular condition Of the patient.
and the stale Of the mucous membrane
that covers it indicates the ge raj
systemic condition. A person who SUI
fers from fever Of any degree will
generally show "fured' tongue. The
word graphically describes the condi-
ton. and Il is not necessary to be
physician in order to recognize it.
In long continued fever like ty-
phoid the fur accumulates until the
tongue is covered with thick. brown
mass that shades of to lighter tint
at the edges. In scarlet fever the
tongue is often covered with a white
fur dotted with little red points. That
is called the ''stra wberry" tongle.
When the stomach is badly out Of con
dition the tongue shows thick whit
or brown fur. and those who are suffer
ing from tonsilitis or from any other
inflammation of the throat may show n
layer of thick. creamy white fur all
over the tongue Sometimes when the

will not he furred. but dry. red and

patches raised above the surface and.

One strange thing about the tongue
is that. although it SO often betrays the
state of the stomach to the physician.
yet in two of the most serious stomach
troubles-cancer and gastric ulcer-the
tongue is generally very clean.

FORMAL HEARING IS
ASKED BY OIL MEN
MATTER OF CONSERVATION WILL
BE PLACED BEFORE coRPoR-
ALTON COMMISSION.

Oklahoma City, Okla, March H.
Charging four specific forms Of viola
ton of the recently enacted conserva
tion oil bill, the advisory board OF the
three big producers associations in
tile state Wednesday asked the attor-
ney generals office to place the mat
ter before the corporation commission
for hearing. Although no immediate
action was taken. it was given out by
the attorney generals office that an
open hearing will be asked shortly.
The following are the grounds upon
which the oil men demand that the
corporation commission intervene:
"First-Oil is being produced in a
manner constituting waste.
"Second--Oil is being produced and
sold at time when there is not
market demand therefor at the well,
and price equivalent to the actual
price thereof.
"Third-Oil is being produced in
manner constituting waste for the
reason that 1t is being produced in
excess of the transporting or market
ing facilities"
The oil men took the matter up in
formally with the attorney generals
office several weeks ago, but nothing
las been done pending a formal re-
Iuest. Producers demand that the
orporation commission prepare set
i rules. to be rigidly enforced, which
will preclude the big operators from
lacing great quantities Of oil in tank
ge while the price is low to await a
etter market.
