A RAW, SORE THROAT
Eases Quickly When You Apply
a Little Musterole

And MUSTEROLE won't blister like
the old-fashioned mustard-plaster. Just
spread it on with your fingers. It pen
etrates to the sore spot with gentle
Jingle, loosens the congestion and draws
out all soreness and pain.
MUSTEROLE is a clean, white ONT
ment made with oil of mustard. There's
nothing like it for quick relief for Sore
Throat. Bronchitis, Tonsilitis, Group,
Stiff Neck, Asthma, Neuralgia, Head

Nothing like MUSTEROLE for croupy

HARVARD DORM|TORY
RENTS ARE LOWERED
New Quarters for Freshmen
Cause General Slashing Of
Prices Charged.

CAMBRIDGE, June n.-Anticipating
a serious cut In business by the erection
Of the new freshman dormitorics. the
hish-priced dormitories on Mt. Auburn
street have announced a decrease In
rents for next year.
A large number of the rooms taken In
these dormitories have been occupied
by freshmen in previous years. but un-
der the new dormitory scheme all fresh
men will be obliged to room in the new
dormitories provided BY the college.
As a result OF the new scheme, many
men who have formerly lived in private
houses or who have occupied sumo Of
the fiimsy old dwellings on Mt. Auburn
street will now move into dormitories.
owing to the greatly reduced prices
made by some Of them.
The freshman dornlitory movement
will have a tendency in more than one
direction for not only will the freshmen
be living apart from the members os the
other classes. but the other classes will
be largely centralized. The seniors will
be in the yard, az has been the custom
OF the fourth-year men. This VIII mean
that the sophomores and juniors viii be
housed for the most part in the Mt. Au-
burn street dormitorie and others In
that neighborhood, and IL 10 probable
that the two classes will be pretty well
grouped. especially after q few years.

suffered principally from this trick,

The Washington times., 1914-06-11

Washington Is in dire need OF SONG
law whereby unlimited and unwelcome
tenants who enter and occupy house
without the owners or the agents per-
mission may be elected and punished.
That is the position taken BY the
Georgetown Citizens Association, which
gnnizations in Washington 20 indorse.
Other bodies will be urged 20 unite in
the effort to have such a law passed in
the District.
Taking advantage of the lack Of such
law a number OF persons have hee
craftily living. rent free, in houses
owned or controlled by Georgetown
business men. In most cases the pro-
cedure has been TO obtain a key from
an agent, to move into a vacant housc,
and then to play for time" while the
owner casts about in vain for any
method to collect his rent, TO punish the
tenant. or to eject him.
Colored woman's Scheme.
One colored woman has been espe-
cially successful at the game. and her
operations have had all the picturesque
effrontcry OF a more generally rccos-
mixed form of brigandage. Her method
of getting into various houses ranged
from obtaining a key from an agent
to begging the owner for a single
nights lodging. then refusing to move
out.
Frank Wissner, owner of a house on
y street, was surprised to find his
premises occupied, and when he asked
the woman how she had gotten in she
said she had paid her rent and OBJ
tained a key from downtown real es-
tate office.
The real estate man she referred to
pancy. She then said her sister in
Rockville had the receipt for the rent.
She told such a convincing story that
the real estate man asserted his be-
lief in her honesty. but a few days
delay brought no news from the sis
ter in Rockville.
BY simply moving the woman's
goods into the street she was elected
from the n street house, though there
was no legal authority for such ejec-
ion But the woman did not oppose
moving her out because she had OBJ
tanned information of houses on Thir-
ty-seventh street, for which II. w;
Offutt was the agent. She moved
into one Of these. and when the ten
ant to whom this house had been rent
ed drove up with his goods the house
was occupied.
The coIored woman told the agent
that she had paid rent on house to
4 downtown agent so she was per-
mitted to move next door until the
matter was Strengthened out. 1t then
developed she had entered into no
