There Was Nothing So Good for
Congestion and Colds as Mustard

But the old-fashioned mustard
plaster burned and blistered while it
acted. Get the relief and help that
mustard plasters gave, without the
plaster and without the blister.
Musterole does it. 1t is a clean,
white ointment, made with oil of mus
tard. 1t is scientifically prepared, so
that it works wonders.
Gently massage Musterole in with the
finger-tips. See how quickly it brings re-
lief-how speedily the pain disappears.
Try Musterole for sore throat, bron-
chitis, tonsillitis, Group, stiff neck.
asthma, neuralgia, headache, conges-
ton, pleurisy, rheumatism, lumbags,
pains and aches of the back or joints,
sprains, sore muscles, bruises, chll-

To Mothers: Musterole is also
made in rnilder form for
babies and small children.

Ernest Fee Attack on Sus.
poets Hurts Respect
for Law.
Charge Goes to Court

Deputy Sheriff Ernest Fee was
fined 800 on each of two assault
and battery charges in county court
Tuesday morning.
James Ryan was complainant in one
case, alleging that Fee and Deputy
Dan Phillips entered his place at
22O1 Cunning street. and that Fee ran
directly back and struck Ryan in the
face with a flashlight and then struck
him on the back of the head.
Phillips admitted that Ryan's face
was bloody, but agreed with Fee in
saying that Fee merely pushed him
back when he tried to pour out q
glass.
Five Witnesses.
Five men who We're IN the soft
drink saloon testified that Fee struck
Ryan. causing blood to flow freely.
John Jacksie, 1414 South Thirteenth
street. complainant in the other case
testified that Fee and Deputy Jack
Graham entered his house and that he
was escorting Fee through the base
ment on the officers search for
liquor when Fee struck him. knock.
ing him down. Phillips said he saw
Jacksie lying on the floor. but didn't
know how he came there. Fee denied
striking the youth.
Hurts Respect for Law.
1T is not Fees duty to beat up
persons even for destroying evidence
during a raid said County Judge
Crawford. When he steps beyond
his duty as an officer and beats up
people he isn't htrting only the per.
son beaten. but also the law which he
Is enforcing. And the law must be
jealous of its good reputation
Fee gave notice of appeal and his
bond was placed at 5000.
On two other cases against Fee and
one against Deputy Graham, the
judge allowed their attorney, J. d.
Ringer. until Saturday to argue a
technical point. On one OF these
cases the judge stated Monday that
the evidence indicated Fee and Ora.
ham should be bound over TO dis
trict court.
Another Alleged Victim.

f1s16 Chicago street, complainant in
a case charging Fee and Phillips with
oppression under color OF office, "
testified that the two deputies en-
tered his house the night of Novem

him.

beating, to show bruises. Max From.
kin, an attorney, testified that he
