GRANDMOTHER knew
There Was Nothing So Good for
Congestion and Colds
as Mustard

But the old-fashioned mustYd- plaster
burned and blistered while it acted.
You can now get the relief and help
that mustard plasters gave, without the
plaster and without the blister.
MUSTEROLE does it. 1t is a clean,
white ointment, made with oil of mus
tagd. 1t is scientifically prepared, so
that, it works wonders, and yet does not
blister the tenderest skim
Just massage MUSTEROLE in with
the finger-tips gently. See how quickly
it brings relief-how speedily the pain
disappears.
And there is nothing like MUSTER

Rheumatism, Lumbago, Pains and Aches
of Back or Joints, Sprains. Sore Mus.

He meant it, too. All attempts to
get him to comment on the election or
anything else were futile.
When the Colonel was interviewed
the day after election he said that he
wouldn t comment on the returns un-
til they were all in. They were all in
yesterday, but he had no comment to

The Waste Product

City dwellers. more than rural folks,

But another thing worth thinking
about, that Mr.. Benson suggests, is
