Don't Let That Cold Turn Into "Flu"
Rub on Good Osd 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 con gested parts and see how quickly 1t brings relief.
 Colds are merely congestion. Mus terole, made from pure oil of mustard, camphor. r1enihol and other simple ingredients. is oounter-irritant which stimulates circulation and helps break up the cold.
 Asofectiye as the messy old mustard plaster, does the work without blister. Just rub it on vith your finger-tips. You will feel a warm jingle as it enters the pores. then cooling sensation that brings welcome relief.
 Mofhers: Musterole is nov made in milder form for babies and small children. Ask for Children's Musterole.
