That cold may turn into Fiji"
Grippe or, even worse, Pneumonia,
unless you take care of it at once.
Rub good old Musterole on the con-

brings relief.
Colds are merely congestion. Mus
terole, made from pure oil of mustard,
camphor, menthol and other simple
ingredients, is counter-irritant which
stimulates circulation and helps break
up the cold.
As effective as the messy old mustard

Just rub it on with your finger-tips.
You will feel a warm tingle as it enters

and order half dozen of the new re
leases tied up. When woman goes
a-purchasing, she enters the sound
proof cubbyhole and tries out half
dozen records, usually selecting one
or two at the end of half hours
concert. Directors of motion pictures
