Old Fashioned Simple Home Remedy Much Used by Doctors and Nurses for Inflammation, Congestion,
 Aches, Pains and SWellingS.

Mustard, real yellow mustard, the kind you use at home, is being used more than ever to banish distress and misery and free mankind from agony and suffering.
 Not very long ago people used to make yellow mustard into a paste, spread it on a, cloth and apply it to that part of the body where pain or 1ammation was present.
 It surely did do the work it was ex- pected to do but it was mussy and bothersome and often blistered the skin.
 People still use yellow mustard when they get a cold in the chest or have pleurisy, lumbago or rheumatic pains and swellings.
 But nowadays they buy this yellow mustard in condensed form all ready for use for something like 30 cents a box and find it much better, cheaper and cleaner than mustard plasters.
 This yellow mustard preparation, which is known to millions as Begy's Mustarine, is sold at drug stores all over America and one box will do the

USES COMMON YELLOW MUSTARD
 FOR CHEST COLDS AND SORE THROATS

work of 50 mustard plasters and it , cannot blister the tenderest skin. ] Begys Mustarine is the original mustard preparation used to take the place of blistering mustard plasters and is known among druggists as the quickest painkiller on earth. It will pay you to keep a box of Begy's Mustarine in the house, for it is good for so many ailments that you i will need it often.
 Just rub it on, that's all you have to do and headache, backache, ear- ache and toothache will disappear almost instantly.
 Don't fail to use it for neuritis, neu- ralgia, sciatica, lumbago, gOut and rheumatic pains and swellings.
 You will quickly find that there is nothing so good for sprains and strains, sore muscles, stiff neck and cramps in leg.
 Heat eases pain and Begy's Mus tarine made of real yellow mustard with other helpful ingredients added contains more concentrated, non-blis- tering heat than can be found in any box the same size.
 Just try 30-cent box-you'll praise it to the skies as millions are doing every day. Always in the yellow box.

Powerful Pile Remedy Discovered
Has Never Failed to End Most Obsti- nate Case of Piles in Few Days.

Has Never Failed to End Most Obsti-
 nate Case of Piles in Few Days.
 For years it has been proved that so-called external remedies applied to or inserted in the rectum cannot cure piles, and at the best can only give temporary relief. Surgical operations also do not remove this cause, but simply the formation.
 This wonderful prescription, known as Miro Pile Remedy, is so efficient in the treatment of piles, that even chronic cases of from 20 to 30 years standing with profuse bleeding have been completely cured in from three to ten days Think of it! Just few doses of a carefully balanced prescrip- ton and the most persistent case of piles is absorbed, never to return.
 Crowell's Drug Store dispense Miro or can get it for you on short notice Surely it is worth the little trouble to obtain it to be rid of piles forever
 IMPORTANT-Wha is known as itching piles are not piles in the true sense of the word, although this con- dition may accompany true case or piles. For this condition Miro Pile Ointment has been prepared as in such cases it is not necessary to take the internal prescription.

 The week of Oct. 20-27 has been designated as Roosevelt Memorial week by the Roosevelt Memorial as- sociation.

 The Bolshevik commissary karo- 1OV, took possession of the embassy in the morning of July 10. Every cup board and press was searched doors being burst open if the keys could not be found at once.

Of Nomadie People-lts
Past History.

Samara, the Volga port, seems to
offer peculiar significance for the
wanderers of the world. Through the
years, says The villager, the district
has been an especial lure for nomadic
peoples; the fierce tribe Of Bulgars
occupied it until the thirteenth CEN
fury and were followed by the Mon
gols, and when the power of the Col
den Horde had waned the Volga bank
was still ravaged by Bashkirs, Kali
mucks and Nogal Tartars; the insti.
tuition of the city of Samara itself was
for the protection of the Russian en-
pire's frontiers against the depreda-
tons of these nomadic marauders
from the steppes.
In the effort to stabilize this border
region and make 1t solid bulwark,
Catherine II offered Germans OF
Wuertemburg and Baden special priv
ileges for settlement here; today as
much German as Russian may be
heard in the streets Of Samara.
Yet, after all the centuries Of effort,
the city Is again swept by wanderers.
