New Principle of Oiling
Developed by Standard
An oilier oil which embodies an en
tirely new principle of lubrication ha*
been developed by the Standard Oil
company (New Jersey) after three
years of long experimenting and ex
haustive tests. It will be known aw
"Standard" Motor Oil, and is now a-
Vailable to motorists.
According to Mr. W. C. Teagle,
president of the company, the new
"Standard" Motor Oil solves the pro
blem of spotty lubrication which has
baffled engineers ever since the per
fection of the internal combustion
engine. It is an oil of greater oiliness,
and possesses many advantages over
the best of the old type oils.
"For years, engineers endeavored
t.» find an oil", stated Mr. Teagle,
"that would cling to metal surfaces
so thoroughly as to abolish the areas
of partial lubrication—the .dry spots
which permit that nirinding of metal
upon metal, and which result in scor
ing of cylinder walls, lead to dilution
and other factors destructive to lub
rication.
"Such ap oil must not be of too
heavy a grade. It must be, in fact,
an oil oj greater oiliness. And that
i.-' exactly what this new 'Standard*
Motor Oil is.
"Hecausv of its greater oiliness and
its ability to 'stay put', the new
'Standard' Motor Oil establishes a
new principle of lubrication, thereby
giving it many advantages over even

History
Hanford's Balaam of Myrrh made
Blnce 1846
In the early 1800's, an old Eng
lish doctor secured good results
with a liniment. He gave the pre
scription for this liniment to Mr.
G. C. Hanford'a grandfather In re
turn for favors done him.
Mr Hanford's father began the
manufacture of this remarkable
antiseptic liniment in 1846 at
Grot on, N. Y. It was first sold lu a
small way In Central New York
and Pennsylvania The demand
for It increased as one customer
recommended It to another, until
lte use is now tremendously wide
spread.
This wonderful cleansing, healing
liniment has almost eighty years of
continuous service to mankind be

the best of the old type oils. The
new oil provides a constant lubrica
tion film on the metal surfaces. It
permits fxictionlesa operation.in a
practical sense, even upon starting a
motor after idleness.
"There is less 'breaking down' un
der load or at high speed. The jjew
oil makes hill climbing easier, gives
smoother operation in high gear at
low speeds, saves gasoline with or
without carburetor adjustment.
".Besides, the new oil is low-carbon
forming and tends to soften and clean
out from the cylinder walls, piston
heads and spark-plugs some of the
mrhon already formed.
Tested Year in Own Cafe
"The Standard Oil company (New
jCTfoy) worked several years to per
fect this new oil. Even then, after
conducting more than a hundred ex
haustive tests, the company decided
not to offer it to the public until we
had given the new oil a thorough trial
of twelve months in our own fleet of
earn and trucks.
"These were gruelling teste under
every day driving conditions, yet this
new motor oil brought an increase in
gas mileage as high as 12 percent. It
gave an increase in power of from 3
to 10 percent. Oil mileage was better
by 8 tt> .'ls percent.
"In all these tests, the motor ran
cooler with the new oil. There was
less crank case dilution. Carburetors
could be adjusted for leaner mixtures
and many of the men reported they
