For New Record

by international News service.
Attaining a speed Of ESQ
miles an hour in a driving
sandstone, the army air service
in 4 recent flight broke all ex-
listing aerial speed. records, the
War Department announced to-
day.
This record was achieved by
Major Leo G. Heffernan, pilot
ing a DH-4B ajrplane between
Nogales, Ariz., and Fort Bliss,
Tex. Seventy-five miles of
this flight, between Columbus,
N. NJ, and Fort Bliss, were
negotiated in IS minutes, an
average speed of $50 miles an
hour.
The most remarkable feature
of the achievement was that
the speed record was made
through q binding sandstone,
the air being saturated with
sand to a height of over 600
feet. Heffernan attempted to
climb above the storm, but
owing to the velocity of the
wind and the shortness Of the
flight was unable to do SO.

Don't Let That Cold
Turn Into "Flu''
Rub on Good Old MusteroIe.

That cold may turn into Flu"
Grippe, or, even worse, Pneumonia,
unless you take care of it at once.
Rub good old Musterole on the
congested parts and see how quick
ly it brings relief.
Colds are merely congestion. Mus
terole, made from pure oil of mus
tard, camphor, menthol and other
simple ingredients, is a counter-ir-
ritant which stimulates circulation
and helps break up the cold.
AS effective as the messy old
mustard plaster, it does the work
without the blister.
Just rub it on with your finger
tips. You will feel a warm tingle
as it enters the<pores, then a cool
ing sensation that brings welcome
relief.
