OIL TANKER FOR KATAL.LA
 ISL.IAI)NCHE;D

For service in Alaska waters in the development work of the Boring River Coal Co.,, a wooden tanker was re- gently launched and completed at Seat tie by E. w. Heath. The vessel is 65 feet inches. The boat was designed by l.. H. Coolidge, of Seattle, and is being equipped with cargo tanks hay ing a capacity of 12,000 gallons. In addition, she will carry 1,50O gallons in her fuel oil tanks for her own use. Besides the oil in the cargo tanks, she will be able to carry approximately 1,5O0 gallons in drums on her decks. Completed, the baby tanker will rep resent an expenditure of $35,000.
 The hull is of extra heavy construc- tion, and if she happened to run aground in ordinary weather, the mis- hap will not necessarily be serious. She is being equipped with twin sixty horsepower Enterprise engines, giving 120 horsepower. This will enable her to tow scows loaded with coal or with fuel oil in drums.
 Pilot house control of the engine will make it possible for two men to operate her, one having charge of the wheel and engine and the other on deck to handle the lines. In an emer- gency, one man could handle the vessel.

Prohibition Case
Arguments May Not
End Before Tomorrow

Washington, March 2e.--The on
s~titutionality Of the prohibition
amendment and portions OF. tho en-
forcement act were argued before the
supreme court again today in connec-
ton with consideration OF the original
s,rit brought by the state Of New
Jersey and appeals from that state
and from Wisconsin. Because of the
number OF cases arguments were>not
expected to ibe concluded before to-
morrow.
The cases today involved virtually
the same questions as the Rhode
Island. Kentucky and Massachusetts
cases recently presented to the court
But the original New Jersey suit en-
bodied a'more extensive attack upon
the validity of the eighteenth amend
ment and parts of the enforcement
act that heretofore brought to the
courts attention.
The other New Jersey case
brought by Christian Fcigenspan, a
Newark brewer. and the Wisconsin
suit, while attacking the validity of
the amendment, involve principally
the right to continue the manufacture
of beer alleged to be Notwithstanding
but containing more than one-half OF
one per cent of alcohol, the maximum
allowed under the enforcement act.

give me strength. The pains over my

praise being given it."
When people are sick they certainly
have to take medicine to get WELL, and
Dreco is proving every day that it aids

Find Out What Causes Your Suffering
and Go After IL.

What is Rheumatism? ?" is a ques-
ZION That has not yet been answered
entirely satisfactorily. There are still
dilierent opinions as to its exact cause,
but little doubt that its pains are real.
Inc medical profession is practically
agreed upon one point, however, and
that Is that Rheumatism is more than
series Of local pains. and that the real
cause OF the disease is deep seated
ana cannot possibly be reached by
remedies applied to the surface.
Some forms of this disease have been
round to come from tiny germs in the
