DON'T FUSS WITH
MUSTARD PLASTERS!
Musterole Works Easier, Quicker
and Without the Blister

There's no sense in mixing mess of
mustard, -four and water when you can

tard and other helpful ingredients, COM
bined in the form Of pleasant white

that period of time ! cannot recall a
single instance where DIR. Kilmer's

enjoy such a good sale.

In the Box.

The workman with the best and
easiest pitching motion is Walter
johnson, the national star.
johnson, despite the binding speed
he gets, works without effort, the
rhythm Of his wind-up and follow
through in pitching being the last word
in his art. 2.
Ray Caldwell also has fine motion,
but in natural ease it isn't quite up to
the Johnsonian standard.
There isn't a pitcher in the game
who has anything like as much in re-
serve as johnson always seems to
have-which is one test of form.
John McGraw always thought the
late Bugs Raymond had the best pitch
ing motion of. them all, but not even
Raymond was up to the Johnson mark

they were and as great as one of
them still is, lacked the great combi-

Jay Burns, head of the Jay Burns

ministrator Wattles crossed swords in
a verbal battle Thursday night and
knocked few sparks when Mr.
Wattles addressed forty bakers of the
city at the New England bakery.
Mr.. Wattles had finished with his
talk, urging the conservation of wheat
flour, when Jay Burns got up and
spread upon the wall a huge~chart he
had prepared, plotting magnificent
curves showing the relative cost of
baking bread now and in the past.
Il don't care anything about that
just now," said Mr.. Wattles, Il am
asking you what you can do to con-
serve wheat flou:;."

enter into it," insisted Burns.
. st does not enter into this discus
sion tonight" repeated Wattles.
But Mr.. Hoover says" began
Burns.
Now ] know all about that" said
Wattles. 81 know that you have
been running back and forth between
here and Washington pretty regularly
since this bread question has come up,
and ! know that the work is being
held up somewhat by your efforts"
"lf you would consult your su-
perior, Mr.. Hoover, you would find"
tbegan Burns again. But Wattles cut
sLim off again:
Wattles Scores Again.
"Yes, I have consulted Mr.. Hoover.
| am in close touch with him and
know what he wants me to do. And,
to be plain, I'd just as soon tell you,
Mr.. Burns, that you are the man who
has been throwing blocks in the way
of Mr., Hoover and the food admins
tratioh in this matter of regulating
the bread industry" -
When the atmosphere had cleared
a little some of the other bakers
spoke and offered some good sugges.
tions. One baker said he has been
using 10 per cent of corn flour in bak-
ing his white bread and has had ex-
cellent results.
