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

fNuO NOOu Nto
 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- eested 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.
 As effective as the messy old mustard plaster, does the work without blister.
 Just rub it on with your tlnger-tips. You will feel a warm jingle as 1t enters i. the pores, then a cooling sensation that brings welcome relief.
 To Mothers: Musterole is also
 made in milder form for babies and small children. Ask for Children's Musterole, 35c and o5c, Tn iars (I|!lll!l!iz||z!!G! ||j ,|||I! li||!G

 The meeting which was called to- gether for the purpose of revising tho rules of the department was at- tended by a full membership of the board. Eighty-nine sections of the general rules were read. Of this number all but about 10 were ap- proved. Some were held over for later consideration while others were abolished.

Just as the rule was to be changed to conform to the motion, Chief W. J. Noble interrupted and asked if this rule would include his car. When no way was found to make the rule elastic, the board decided to let 1t stand as it was.
 If this rule were passed Chief Noble would be required to drive his high-powered car at a low rate of speed which would defeat the pur- pose for which it was purchased.

 Dr. Charles w. Kennedy, chair man of the Princeton board of ath- letic control, denied the report that relations with the Crimson had al ready been severed because Harvard wanted to substitute Michigan in place of the Tiger on its 1927 foot ball schedule, but confirmed reports of discord.
 "All consideration of Harvard Princeton athletic relations by off cials Of the two universities has for some time been completely suspend ed pending official conferences to be held later" said Dr. Kennedy. "Un- til such conferences are held, no de- cision will be taken and rumors of
 decision reached and action con- templated have no official founda- tion."
 While Princeton officials declined to comment on the situation, it was intimated that there might be some thing more than the football con- troversy to be decided,
 After Harvard notlned Princeton of it's resire to drop the 1927 football game, Princeton started a reply seeking to terminate relations in all branches of the sport but this let ter, as far as is known. was never mailed.
 Yale makes up the third member of the Big Three" and there has been some discussion that Crimson officials feel the Tiger game de- tracts interest from the annual classic with the Blue.

FASHION GAR OF

New York, Sept. 15-Thos who consider the Prince of Wales a sar torial model, received reeling blow yesterday when evening papers an- nounced in headlines that Capt. J. A. Murdocke, an arbiter of mems fashions in London who arrived on the liner Majestic, said the prince was a sloppy dresser. Consterna- tion,
 Capt. Murdocke hastily sent the following telegram to the city editor of a New York paper:
 Prince Not Sloppy
 T am quoted in afternoon papers as saying Prince of Wales is sloppy dresser. What I said was Prince of Wales is well dressed with sloppy touch. What I meant was that he is carelessly well dressed. seemingly without generalization. l regret na- tural misinterpretation which you can easily recognize would be most embarrassing If printed as in the evening papers,"
 So now you know. Capt. Mur- docke originally from County Gal way, Ireland, migrated to London and has for years advised many large clothing manufacturers in this country.
 Yesterday he appeared In dou- ble-breasted grey flannel suit, blue oxford shirt and collar, tie with blobs on 1t, stick pin, brown buck skin shoes. He said the double breasted grey flannel was being gen. orally worn by the fashionable youth on the other side.
 The general tendency, he said is to be as comfortable as possible, a fashion set by the Prince of Wales. Soft shirts instead of boiled ones, etc
 The Kingly Pants
 Certainly King George is press ing his pants on the sides, and so is the rest of the royal entourage," he said, with reproof in his voice that there should have been a thought 1 of a change.
 Of future fashions he said we are l to have silhouette" figures. He ex- plained "Women love cave men. ! We build up the shoulders. give muscles to the body and then the outlihe becomes the ideal silhouette. You fget me?"
 Later he was received by Mayor | Walker. After the usual introduc- tion the conversation went;
 Mayors Good Figure
 "Mr. Mayor, you have simply marvellous figure"
 Wait until you see the 1927 budget figure"
 T think you are the best dressed l have ever met"
 T wear New York clothes"
 q envy you your figure. I'm get ting stout, but you'll always have good waistlne."
 The nervous strain of the job will keep me slender"
 T wish to thank you for the very kind way you have received me; the look in your eyes confirms the kind ness of your heart"
 I'm very sorry to hear that. A poker face is the best kind for my job,"-
