When You Catch Cold
Rub on Musterole

Musterole is easy to apply with the
fingers and works right away. Often
it prevents a cold from turning into
FLU or pneumonia. 1t does all the
good work of grandmother's mustard
plaster without the blister.
Musterole is a clean, white ointment,
made of oil of mustard and other home
simples. 1t is recommended by many
doctors and nurses. Try Musterole for
sore throat, cold on the chest, rheuma-
tism, lumbago, pleurisy, stiff neck, brOn-
chitis, asthma, neuralgia, congestion,
pains and aches of the back and joints,
sprains, sore muscles, bruises, chill
blains, frosted feet-colds of all sorts.

BAYARD ASSA|LS
c. 0.P. PROSPERITY
Delaware Senator Declares
Farm-Buying Power Has
Dropped to Low Point.

The Republican claim of prosper
ity was denied and the expenditures
in the Pennsylvania and Illinois pri-
maries this year were attacked by
Senator Bayard, Democrat. of Della
ware, in a radio speech here last
night.
Senator Bayard quoted the Depart
ment of Agriculture as having an
nounced on October l that there has
been fall in the price of wheat, cot
ton and fruits. which brought the
general index of purchasing power of
farming products from SO as of Au-
gust, 1925, TO 50, as of August, 1926.
the lowest point reached in 26
months"
If the purchasing price of the prod
ucts raised from the soil is decreas-
ing" Senator Bayard continued, land
If almost half of the population is en-
gagged in tilling the soil, how can
there be, In all conscience, any real
prosperity throughout the country
when the manufacturing interests
are able to carry on by feeding upon
the agricultural interests, not only to
the financial detriment, but if it
keeps up, it will be to the financial
slavery of the agricultural interests
Senator Bayard pointed out that
the Democratic campaign book calls to
attention that it was upon the in
sistence of the Republicans in Con-
gress and over the protest of the
Democrats that the tax laws of 1926
still carry "a heavy burden" upon
enusementS and automobiles.
