The antiseptic is used in dilution
as a nasal spray for this trouble.
Its effect is to cleanse the mu-

normal discharges, thus clearing
the nasal passages.

Veteran Carrier
on Retired List
John Peine, veteran mail carrier, aft-
er serving thirty-three years in the
service of the Galveston post office,
was retired on pension, in conformity
with the ruling of the postal depart-
ment that those reaching their 65 birth-
day must retire on
of $60.
monthly pension
An extension of two years is
granted if desired.
An an evidence of the affection in
which he is held by his co-workers,
employees of the post office presented
him with a leather-covered Morris
chair with combination extension light
and cigar stand.
0. S. York, postmaster, made the
presentation speech. He told of the
faithful service of Mr. Peine since he
first came into the service, Dec. 1, 1890,
saying that he had been punctual, ac-
curate and faithful in the highest de-
gree.
"Beloved by all the patrons on his
route, some of whom have had him as
their carrier, except— on vacation times
during their business lifetime. Almost
without error in his delivery, he has
served faithfully and well.”
Mr. Peine thanked his “0-workers
and assured them the gift would al-
ways be very dear to him.
The district covered by Mr. Peine
included Avenue A, from Eighteenth
to Twenty-first streets; Avenue B,
Eighteenth to Twenty-first; Avenue C,
Eighteenth to Twenty-first; south on
Twenty-first and Twenty-second streets
to Avenue O. Mr. Peine is the third
carrier to retire under the new regu-
lations.

Austin, Dec. 10.—General revision of
rates on lumber and articles taking
lumber rates in Southeast Texas was
ordered Saturday by the railroad com-
mission, following two hearings held
on the proposition, one last March and
the other in September. The new rates
reach a maximum of 12 cents per 100
pounds while under present rates the
maximum rate was as high as 26 cents.
In certain instances the commission has
materially advanced present rates
while in others the rate was reduced
during the process of readjustment.
The rates apply to Galveston, Texas
City, Houston, Beaumont, Orange, Port
Arthur, West Port Arthur, Port Neches,
Sabine, Echo and Sabine Pass, from
various points in southeast. These
rates apply on the Gulf. Colorado &
Santa Fe and Tap lines, Texas & New
Orleans Railway and tap lines, Hous-
ton, East and West Texas, Gulf Coast
Lines, Cotton Belt, Waco-Beaumont,
Trinity and Sabine Railway and Tex-
arkana and Fort Smith railway.
"The influence and actions responsi-
ble for the present chaotic lumber rate
situation in Southeast Texas," said the
commission in its decision, “making it
necessary to effect some harmonious
readjustment of some, were the oppor-
tunities, existing in the past and now,
to ship lumber by water from the large
saw mill points to the large consum-
ing points in the gulf coast region and
the attempt then and now to place
mills back from the waterfront on a
parity with the mills having water
transportation facilities.
"It has, however, been concluded aft-
er giving due weight to all considera-
tions, to make this adjustment gen-
erally applicable to intermediate points
via the direct route to the producing
line, or, in the case of lines not reach-
ing a given gulf coast destination, via
its direct connections. Exceptions to
this are in the case of points on the
T. & N. O., and Gulf Coast Lines be-
tween Beaumont and Houston, and
points on the Santa Fe south of Beau-
mont, to which as intermediate points
the rates from all origins are made
applicable. It has, however, not been
deemed equitable to make, the rates ap-
plicable from mills east of Cleveland
apply to intermediate points west of
Cleveland.”
The new rates are effective fifteen
days after publication by the carriers,
but not later than Feb. 1, 1924.
PETROLEUM MEN TO
DISCUSS OIL USES
Institute Opens Meet at
St. Louis.
By Associated Press.
St. Louis, Dec. 10.—The many uses
of oil and its by-products, such as pro-
ducing heat and power and for the
construction of roads are to be dis-
cussed at the convention of the Amer-
ican Petroleum Institute which open-
ed here today.
Leaders of the petroleum industry
from all sections of the United States
have arrived to attend the meetings,
which continue through Wednesday.
The producer, the pipe line man, the
refiner and the marketer are rep-
resented.
The problem dealing with fraudulent
oil stock promotions is scheduled for
discussion and this will be the theme
of an address by Lou E. Holland of
Kansas City, president of the Asso-
ciated Advertising Clubs of the World.
Agriculture, the farm and its relations
to the oil industry will be submitted
to the assembly in an address by E.
T. Meredith, former secretary of agri-
culture during the Wilson administra-
tion, it was said. Mr. Meredith speaks
Wednesday.
The extensive use of oil for produc-
tion of automotive power will be dis-
cussed by Joe Sheedy, vice president
in charge of operation of the United
States Emergency Fleet Corporation
who is expected to tell of the increase
in the use of oil for propelling ocean
steamers.
Use of oil for heating purposes will
be discussed in detail, it was stated.
The more important meetings will be
tomorrow.
A number of group meetings have
been scheduled, in which reports of
committees will be drafted for sub-
BEWARE THE
COUGH OF COLD
THAT HANGS 0
Chronic coughs and persistent colds
lead to serious lung trouble. You can
stop them now with Creomulsion, an
emulsified creosote that is pleasant to
take. Creomulsion is a new medical
discovery with two-fold action;it
soothes and heals the inflamed mem-
branes and kills the germ.
Of all known drugs, creosote is rec-
ognized by the medical fraternity as
the greatest healing agency for the
treatment of chronic coughs and colds
and other forms of throat and lung
troubles. Creomulsion contains, in ad-
dition to creosote, other healing ele-
ments which soothe and heal the in-
flamed membranes and stop the irri-
tation and inflammation, while the cre-
osote goes on to the stomach, is ab-
sorbed into the blood, attacks the seat
of the trouble and destroys the germs
that lead to consumption.
Creomulsion is guaranteed satisfac-
tory in the treatment of chronic coughs
bronchitis and other forms of throat
and colds, bronchial asthma, catarrhal
and lung diseases, and is excellent for
building up the system after colds or
the flu. Money refunded if any cough
or cold, no matter of how long standing
is not relieved after taking according
to directions. Ask your druggist. Creo-
