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

tNhp ch NUSc %t5 hsafh%fShr 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 it 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.
 Aseffective as the messy old mustard plaster, does the work without blister. Just rub it on with your fnger-tips. You will feel a warm jingle as it enters the pores. then a cooling sensation that brings welcome relief.
 To Mothers: Musterole Is also made in nilder form for babies and small children. Ask for Children's Musterole.

Columbus. Ohio. Nov. 12,--Fewer rural churches. shorter sermons and greater cooperation among various denominations Is the aim of the American Country Life association which closed it's seventh annual con- ference last night.
 After five days of discussion com mittees reported that denomination strife was seriously hampering rural advancement. Cooperation was pre- scrlbed as the remedy.
 Thirty pastors agreed to shorten their sermons to thirty minutes and report results to national headquar- tcrs Delegates also promised to work for the advancement for the community generally rather than for individual denominations.

The Cold Snap.

Winter made sudden attack on US
Monday. While most persons we're
salking of the golden days of Autumn,
the mellow rays Of the sun and the soft
haze that wrapped the hills, Winter
blew in upon us with little warning.
Many automobiles refused to move,
men turned up their coat collars and
women took of their summer furs. In
many homes there are sounds of shak-
ing stoves and shoveling coal. The
weather statisticians turned to the rec
ords and tell US that this is the fourth
time in the annals of the Weather Blu
reau that the mercury has dropped to
"a degrees before November 20, and
that il is the coolest snap in November
in 40 years.
We are loath to part with the wealth
or that has been with us since summer.
The warm days have been delightful,
and autumn leaves, asters and the gol-
den rods have been worthy of high
praise. Our climate this Fall has JUS
esified the claim that, take it all and all;
flt is one OF the fairest climates in the
country. Late autumn and winter have
their charms, and "cold spell'' that
would lock the earth into good rest,
would help to give us brighter foliage
and flowers in the spring.

The career of Magnus John
son in Washington was brief.
Elected as dirt farmer with a
personal acquaintance with the
needs Of our agricultural regions,
Mr.. johnson was expected to
propose and fight for legislation
that would fill the farmers
wants. But his constituents
were disappointed. His record
in the Senate is virtually a
blank. So Minnesota has turned
from the glittering generalities
of Farmef-Laborism and gone
back into the list of Republican
States. The state may be ex-
pected to retire her other So
called Farmer-Labor Senator in
1928. In the meantime his rad
ical influence in the Senate will
be negligible.

PERsHING PHONES

Calls Up Generals In New York, Chi.

Assuring Them Latch String

When General Pershins retired from
the United States Army last month he
made use of the Long Distance tele-
phone to bid farewell to his fellow
generals and to assure them that a
warm welcome would await them in
the Pershing home. Many thousand
miles of Bell System wires were used
to establish the connections and en-
able the retiring Commander to say
the words of farewell which closed
forty-two years of active service in
the American Army.
The circuits for the Long Distance
calls were built up through the Central
Ohices Of the Chesapeake and Potomac

where the calls originated Many re

General Billiard sought to recall
song he declared Pershing had sung

MARYLAND IN THE
REPUBLICAN COLUMN

Maryland took its place in the
Republican column in the recent
election. The majority was less
than 10000, but still it was
great victory Tor the party in
this State, and Is very crafty ing
to party workers ana others, es-
pecially those Democrats who
supported the President,
T'nls victory does tof course,
mean that Maryland is to be re-
garded as Republican state,
put it does indicate that with the
right KIND OF a candidate running
on platform which appeals to
the people it may ordinarily be
depended upon to go Republican.
The Republicans codld just as
well have had 20, 900 majority in
this State, had there been any
real effort put forth, but our or
ganization is woefully weak and
certain it is that little credit is
due to it for the result here the
credit belongs, we think, to the
confidence in and popularity OF
President Coolidge.
There is a lesson in this result
for US if we will but see it, and
that is that while we won in
spite of our unorganized state,
upon national issues, we may
fairly and reasonably expect to
win IN State election, if we will
organize.
What should be done now, in
our opinion, is to call a confer
ence OF all factions and shades OF
opinion in the party and work
out and provide for a real live,
efficient and working organiza-
ton.
If we will do this we will put
ourselves in a position where We
may reasonably expect success
in 1926. Ii we do not do some
thing along this line, then, in
our Judgment, we will have little
chance of success. Laurel Lead
