Methods of Treatment

Usually those who continue
to suffer from stubborn all

solutely to heed the teachings
of medical science. New dis
coveries are being constantly
made, and those who fail to
take advantage of the wonder

der the handicap of disease.
Take so-called skin diseases,
for instance. In the first place
they are not in reality diseases
of the skin, but are referred to
as such for the simple reason
that the skin is the point OF at
tack where the irritation and
inflammation is set up.
But your eczema, letter,
boils, pimples, acne, scaly skin
eruptions and burning flery r.
ritations that cause so much
discomfort by their terrifying
itching, come from tiny dis
ease germ in your blood, which
multiplies by the millions.
These germs find some weak
spot where they can break
through the skin and set UP
their attack, and if you have
ever had any form of these skin
disorders, you know what real
torture is.
The reason these disorders
appear SO stubborn and hard to
get rid of, is because they are
not given the proper sort OF
treatment. In other words, the
irritation and itching becomes
so intense that the patient

Rich Refinery Profits

The value of the refined products of
one barrel (42 gallons) of crude oil fol-
lows: Gasoline, 81 SO; kerosene, 1873; gas
oil, Sc; light refined cylinder oils, .9S6;
motor oils, .4e5; other lubricants, .s24;
fuel oil, etc, .l49; evaporation loss per
cent, making the total value OF the re-
coveries, $3.50.
The posted pipe line price for Mid-Con-
t;nent crude is now $3.50 and the pipe
line charge from the North Central Texas
fields to Fort Worth is -325, making the
cost of delivered crude at the plant,
$2.s25.
The total cost of refining, as calcu-
lated by Mark Lawrence Requa, director
Of the Oil Division, United States Fuel
Administration covering all charges, in
GLIDING labor, insurance, interest on in
vestnent, depreciation and requirements,
is THIRTY CENTS per barrel. That is
by far the lowest manufacturing cost of
any large industry known.
Thus the total cost of raw material
and refining it ready for market is $3.125
DER barrel, AND THE NET PROFIT PER
BARREL is $2.265.
Our refinery will ultimately have TO-
600 barrels daily capacity and will begin
operations before next spring with 5000
barrels daily capacity Figure your own

REPUBLICAN, SCHEME

Regulations and Have
House Act First on
Treaty

Washington, December 3.-The plan OF
republican Senate leaders TO declare a
state of peace by concurrent resolution of
Congress struck snag today in the
House.
Chairman Porter of the foreign affairs
committee said his committee had no in
tention Of reporting out such a resolu-
ton and it was indicated that House
leaders supported this position
The position taken by the House re-
publicans was said to be that repeal of
tie wartime legislation, which extends
until peace is established would be a
more acceptable method Of restoring nor
NAL conditions and that the question OF
peace was one which the President and
the Senate, constituting the treaty max
ing power, should determine.
The stand of the House republican
leaders was accepted as at least block
ing the plan OF republican senators to
have the House act rrrst on a peace res
olution.
In the Senate such resolution has
been presented by Senator Lodge, the
republican leader and now is in the
hands of the foreign relations committee.
4hSiHDcTS thought tonight tndL the COM
mittee probably would not take it up
when it. meets tomorrow for the first
time in the new session.
In the Sena tie the resolution faces stub
born democratic opposition, and it was
predicted by many senators that no eff
fort to bring it to a vote would be made
in the immediate future.
1t was explained that while Chairman
Porter opposed a concurrent resolution
he would not oppose a joint resolution,
which requires the Presidents signature
Democrats said tie President never
would sign such a resolution and that
1t could not be passed over his veto.

such statements, will be willing to prove
their truthfulness if required to do SO
