Don't Let That Cold
Turn Into ''Flu"

That cold may turn into "F1u,"
Grippe or, even worse, Pneumonia, un-
less you take care of it at once.
Rub Musterole on the congested parts
and see how quickly it brings relief.
Musterole, made from pure oil of
mustard, camphor, menthol and other
simple ingredients, is a counter-irritant
which stimulates circulation and helps
break up the cold.
AS effective as the messy oldmustard
plaster; does the work without blister.
Rub it on with your finger-tips. You
will feel a warm tingle as it enters the
pores, then a cooling sensation that
brings welcome relief.

thing hung on what this probable kiss
would mean to her NO wonder
she felt dizzy.
Her dread, however, was quite un-
necessary. Padraic was in his gentleSt,
most considerate mood. Not only the
thought of her recent illness subdued
him, but he had fully realized since
their last meeting that his Melusine,
unlike the kingdom of heaven, was not
to be taken by violence.
He must win her little by little and
through patient tenderness, he told
himself She wouldn't have let him
come again if she didn't love him. For
the present that was quite enough.
He must not startle her by making
owe to her.
So instead of the kiss on her lips
that Celia dreaded. she felt his arm
slipped ever so gently about her, urg-
ing her toward the fire.
Dearest" he was saying anxiously,
I'm so afraid you oughtnt to have
come down. Don't let me be self
.sh Are you sure you're strong
enough to be up?"
Oh. yes, Celia was quite sure. In
deed, so great was her relief at having
been spared the test of that kiss that
she felt entirely herself again. Her
mind began to clear she re-
membered the words that she intend
ed saying but not yet. She
couldn't begin just yet.
He had led her to an armchair near
the fire, and, drawing up a low stool
for himself, sat beside her as he had
done during that first intimate talk
together SO long ago. How long? Only
three months? 1t didn't seem possible.
She glanced down at him, and some
thing in those dark blue, anxious eyes,
softened by concern for her. made her
more sure both Of herself and of him.
Yes, he would do whatever she want
ed. He would never look at her cool
ly and ironically Yes it
was good to be adored as those eyes
were adoring her. Everything would
be just as simple and easy as she had
hoped. She had only to tell him i.
He had taken one of her hands and
was kissing it now and then.
Are you quite warm again? Quite

Flowers Tipsy in Alcohol.

Alcohol has much the same effect
on flowers that it has on human be-
ings, members of the botany faculty
at the University of California have
learned, says the Detroit News.
Six California poppy buds were
used in an experiment. They were
placed in jars containing liquids vary
ing from straight water to whisky.
The only flower to bloom was the one
in the water. The others became
tipsy and leaned over the edge of
their glasses-not wilted, but just in
stupor, varying in the degree of un-
consciousness with the amount of
liquid.

CLANS Catch Mice.

Those who are bothered by the com.

take a hint from the inhabitants of
Gushing, Me-, who have found In the
ordinary clam a mouser superior to
either cats or traps. says the Detroit
News.
The discovery was made by Mrs.
o. w. Creamer. She kept a basket of
clans in her cellar one night, and the
next morning she found three dead
mice held firm and fast between the
shells of as many CLANS. She relayed
the news to a neighbor, who obtained
the same results.
Now all the, Cushingites. who have
been troubled with mice, are putting
clans on their trail, and the mouse
trap business Is experiencing the
worst slump in years.

INSTALLMENT XLV.
The Dog in the Manger.

~ ISCONSOLATELY Hilary re-
tlected that his very anxiety
to shield Celia, to end an i'm
~ possible situation by urging
her to decide it one way or
the other, might have given her an
idea of undue haste on his part, of
impatience with her natural hesita-
ton, even of desire to be done once
for all with the unsettlement of his
habitual life.
And wasn't this in fact the truth? ?
He was anxious to get it over, but
all his reasons were not known to her.
Chief among them was his wish to be
done with the pain of parting with
her. Had he told her this, however,
he felt that he would have been un-
pardonably selfish.

Albany, N. Y. Dec. 31.-tP-The
fourth inauguration of Governor

The ceremonies, which will cul-
inmate tomorrow noon in the formal
Inauguration in the assembly cham
Der, began last night with the gov
ernor taking the oath of office in the
quiet of the executive office, sur
rounded by his family, few friends

governor signed the oath book with
fountain pen that is accommodating
historic significance. The pen is
owned by George W. Herrick,
Albany newspaperman, and it was
the fourth time it was so used.
Inaugural visitors were arriving
here last night in such large num-
bers that hotels reported all accom-
nodations exhausted. Secretary of

ceived requests for tickets to the in
auguration far in excess of the / 500
allotted for filling the assembly
chamber.
Mrs. Knapp, desiring to bring to
perfection plans for the formal func-
ton, has requested a rehearsal to-
night of parts of the inaugural cere-
mony, the rehearsal to be conduct
ed in the assembly chamber. The
elaborate decorations and rather
extensive work in the chamber are
not complete and the room stands
ready for the opening of the exer-
cises at 1915 o'clock.
The majority of the military and
naval units which are TO participate
in the parade preceding the exercises
at the Capitol are expected to be in
the city tonight, according to Col

Stamford, Dec. 81 P>-A stipula-
/ ton was filed in superior court al
Bridgeport today in connection with
the legal tanglc concerning the city
clorkship of the city of Stamford.
Joseph H. Provost, republican city
clerk for the last two years, brought
injunction proceedings subsequent TO
November to restrain Harry A.
Williams, democrat, who was elect
cd November 2.sfrom taking office.
This action was brought on the
ground that Williams was not lc-
gal resident of the city Of Stamford.
Two weeks ago the case came be-
fore Judge John w. Banks in su-
pnrior court. He declined to issue an
injunction but at that time an agree
mont was reached at his suggestion
which provided that Provost was TO
remain rs city clerk and perform all
the duties of that Office until quo
Warranto proceedings could be
brought. The agreement further pro-
vidcd that Williams would take the
oath of office January I and file his
bond. but permitting Provost 10 con-

day provides that Provost will re-
linquish the office to Williams to-
morrow 1t is understood that Pro-
vost did not want to continue in
office because Of the fact that the
incoming administration would be a
hostile one.
