There Was Nothing So Good
for Congestion and Colds
as Mustard
But the old-fashioned mustard

acted. Get the relief and help that
mustard plasters gave, without the
piaster and without the blister.
Musterole does it It is a clean,
white ointment, made with oil of mus

that it works wonders, and yet does
Dot blister the tenderest skin.
Gently massage Musterole in with the
finger-tips. See how quickly it brings re
lief—how speedily the pain disappears,
Use Musterole for sore throat; bron
chitis, tonsilitis, croup, stiff neck,

The membrane of the throat
and no3e is raw, sore and tender,
and makes a lovely abiding place
for germs to thrive and multiply.
He advises an inexpensive home
made remedy that will bring relief
in less than a day and will stop all
discharge and sooth and heal the
inflamed membrane in a few days.
Thousands are making this be
neficial remedy at home and any
one who hr.s catarrh or a cold can
do the same.
Pour three-nuarters of an ounce
of Mentholized Arcine into a pint
bottle, then fill the bottle with
water that has been boiled.
Gargle the throat as directed
and snuff or spray the liquid into
the nostrils twice daily. It's a
simple way to get rid of cold and
catarrh and keeps the nasal pas

MONDAY EVENING,
DANCING IN BERLIN
IS VERY COSTLY j
Berlin, Nov. 17 —A self-styled j
"expert" estimates that 750,000,-
000 murks a year is the cost of j
dancing In Germany, for Berlin |
and other large cities, as well as [
provincial cities and towns, are j
indulging deeply in the dancing ,
craze.
The would-be expert criticizes ,
this as extravagance and asks i
whether dnnces should be re- j
stricted. He cites the United j
States and Norway as two coun- j
tries that either have or are about |
to deny themselves luxuries such |
as intoxicating liquor, and In- ,
quires whether Germany is not in i
the position to give up superflu
ous things, when necessities are
lacking.
