all start with a cold. At the first
sign of fever, the moment you get
those warning aches, get busy with
good old Musterole.
Musterole is a counter-irritant that
goes right after congestion (Which is
what cold really is) and restores
normal circulation.
1t has all the good qualities Of the
old-fashioned mustard plaster with
out the unpleasant sting and blister.
During the big Flu epidemic sew
eral years ago MusterOle was used in
our training camps. The Y. NJ. c.
A. War Board sent thousands of jars
to our boys in France. Doctors have
been recommending it to their pa
tients for years.
Just rub il on the congested parts
with your finger tips First you will
feel a warm tingle as the healing
ointment penetrates the pores. then
comes soothing, cooling sensation
and quick relief.
If there are colds in your house
get Musterole on the Job at once. II
may prevent serious illness. II is a
good plan to have Musterole aways

ency.
Sold by all druggists. 35c and Csc
