boulevard was brought up before the
city council last night by Councilman
Hayes The estimate suggested was
$1,000 per mile. Mayor Coffman, how
ever stated that in order to make such
a road effective and durable curbing
would have to be laid for a. distance of
probably four and a half miles, the
whole involving an expense Of at least
$4,000, in his opinion. This figure
however, was suggested off-hand
without especial calculation.
No action was taken in the matter.

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

But the oid-fashioned mustard-p plaster
burned and blistered while it acted. You
can now get the relief and help that
mustard plasters gave, without the plas-
ter and without the blister.
Musterole does it. 1t Is a clean,
white ointment, made with oil Of
mustard. 1t is scientifically prepared,
so that it works wonders, and yet
does rot blister the tenderest skin.
Just massage Musterole in with the
finger tips gently. See how quickly
it brings relief how speedily the
pain disappears.
Use NLusterole for sore throat, bron-
chitis, tonsilitis, Group, stiff neck,
asthma, neuralgia, headache, conges-
ton, pleurisy, rheumatism, lumbago,
pains and aches of back or joints,
sprains, sore muscles, bruises, chill
blains, frosted feet, colds of the chest
(it cften prevents pneumonia).
