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.

gentle tingle, loosens the congestion
and draws out the soreness and pain.
Musterole is clean, white ONT
ment made with oil of mustard. 1t

throat, bronchitis, tonsilitis, Group, stiff
neck, asthma, neuralgia, headache
congestion, pleurisy, rheumatism, lum'
bago, pains and aches of the back or
joints, sprains. soremuscles, bruises, chill
blains, frosted feet, colds on the chest.
Nothing like Musterole for croupy chill
dren. Keep it handy for instant use

is Regarded as important

Chicago. July 26.-Beer is beer aud
need not be Intoxicating. and so long
as 1T contains as much as one-half of
one per cent alcohol, its manufacture
or sale is in violation of the war time
prohibition act, Federal Judge Page
held yesterday. He overruled the de-
murrer of the Stenson Brewing COM
pany, setting forth that the govern
ment's information failed to charge
that the company's beer was intoxi-
eating.
The company then entered a plea of
not guilty. 1t is expected that when
the case goes to trial The defense will
admit it manufactured and sold beer
containing one-half of one per cent al
coholfc content. and the jury will be
instructed TO find the company guilty.
Appeal then would be taken.
The governments victory was re-.
garded as important by the district at
torney's office, in that under Judge
Pages finding the burden of proving
a beverage Intoxicating, and in fact re-
moving the question as to its intoxi-
eating quality, is lifted from the gov
eminent.
II am of the opinion that congress.
in passing the act of Feb. "a 1919, had
In mind in its construction of beer, a
malt beverage with the alcoholic con-
tent accepted for years by the in
ternal revenue department, and TO
which the manufacturers of beer never
objected" said the Judge. And in
the internal revenue acts beer is de-
scribed, along with other fermented
malt beverages, as containing one-half
Of one per cent, or more, of alcohol"

AGRICULTURAL BILL GOES
THROUGH WITHOUT RIDER
Amendment to Appropriation Bill Re-

Washington, July 24.-The senate
late yesterday passed the $34, ZOO, OOC
agricultural appropriation bill, which
recently was vetoed by President Will
son because of the rider for repeal
of the daylight saving law. No effort
to restore the rider was made In the
senate. -
Senators made no criticism Of the
presidents veto, and the only refer
ence to the daylight saving question
was an announcement by Chairman
Gronna of the agricultural committee
of the veto, and the reiterated refusal
Of the house to override 1T.
The bill will be returned to the
house today with q single minor COM
mittee amendment approved by the
senate, providing relief for western
drouth sufferers by suspending their
homestead residence requirements.
The house may concur Immediately in
this amendment or send the bill to
conference, but with the measures en-
actment before adjournment today be-
lieved assured.
Because of universal desire to pro-
vide funds in the bill for the depart
ment of agriculture's many activities
and salaries held up since July 1,
discussion of the bill was brief.
Western senators practically urged all
possible haste to provide funds for
the forestry service in fighting forest
fires.

Washington, July Exchanges OF
| labor leaders that Thomas j. Mooney
was unjustly convicted for participa-
ton in the bomb outrage in San Fran
cisco three years ago, were supported
In report of John B. Densmore. spe-
cial agent of the department of labor
submitted to the house yesterday in
response TO a resolution demanding
more information on the case.
Mr.. Densmore, now director of the
federal employment service conduct
ed secret investigation of the case
at the request of Secretary Wilson.
With the aid of several immigration
inspectors, he gathered his evidence,
working without the knowledge of
San Francisco authorities. Most of it
was obtained by use of a mechanical
recorder placed in the office of Dis
trict Attorney Fickertp prosecutor of
the case.
From this evidence. Mr.. Densmore
drew the conclusion that Mooney did
not receive full justice in his trial
and that lie was the victim of corpor-
ate interests in San Francisco who
desired to discredit the labor unions
and maintain the "open shop"
The prosecution was conducted
without real investigation of the
crime, Mr.. Densmore declared. and
with deliberate intent to frame" the
labor leader.
Methods employed by District Attor-
ney Fickert in prosecuting Mooney
were attacked by Mr.. Densmore. who
declared there were excellent grounds
for believing that the prosecutor was
influenced by local corporate interests
most bitterly opposed to union labor
After Frank c. Oxman, principal wit
ness. had been proven perjurer, Mr..
Densmore said. Ffckert agreed to a
new trial and later vigorously opposed
it, his attitude being practically re-
versed
'Since the Oxman exposure" Mr..
Densmore said, 1.-THE district attorneys
