’ RELIEF! ND BUSIER!
It Soothes and Relieves Like a
Mustard Plaster Without

Musterole is a clean, white ointment,
made with the oil of mustard. It does all
the work of the old-fashioned mustard
plaster—does it better and does not blis
ter. You do not have to bother with a
doth. You simply rub it on—and usually
the pain is gone! *
Many doctors and nurses use Muster
ole and recommend it to their patients.
They will gladly tell you what relief it
gives from sore throat, bronchitis, croups
stiff neck, asthma, neuralgia, congestion,
pleurisy, rheumatism, lumbago, pains
and aches of the back or joints, sprains,
sore muscles, bruises, chilblains, frosted
feet, colds of the chest (it often pre
vents pneumonia).

GOLDS AND FLU
BESf TREATED
WITH GALOTABS
The New Perfected Calomel That Is
Free From Nauseating and Salivat
ing Effects.
Physicians or druggists will tell you
that the best thing in the world for a
cold, grippe, or influenza, is Calotabs,
the perfect calomel, that is free from
nauseating and salivating effects. Doc
tors have learned that other laxatives
are uncertain and unsatisfactory for
colds and grippe, but that they can
count on Calotabs, the new calomel
that has all the liver benefits and none
of the eting, to thoroughly arouse the
liver and put the system in ideal con
di’lon to throw off the cold and pre
vent influenza and pneumonia.
The best time to take Calotabs is at
the first sign of a cold. If you take
it at the beginning you can cure a
cold overnight. One Calotab on the
tongue at bed time with a swallow of
water —that’s all. In the morning you
wake up feeling fine, with a hearty ap
petite for breakfast. Your cold has
vanished and you may congratulate
yourself that you have possibly pre
vented serious complications, for phy
sicians tell us that neglected colds
number their victims by the millions.
For your protection, Calotabs are
sold only in original sealed packages,
price thirty-five cents. Your druggist
will supply you, and your money given
back promptly and cheerfully if you
are net delighted with this new form
of calomel. adv
GUERRERO, MEXICAN STATE,
NOW REPORTED AS PACIFIED
MEXICO CITY, Jan. 24.-—General
Fortunato Maycotte, in charge of the
pacification of the state of Guerrero,
has reported to the war department,
according to an official announcement
by that branch of the government,
that the conquest of Silvestro Maris
cal, formed governor of Guerrero, has
been under arrest in the capital since
Jan. 25, 1918, on a charge of disobe
dience of orders.
The pacification of the state of More
los, stronghold of the Zapata follow

the forces operating under General
Pablo Gonzalez. Spanish influenza
and famine have played havoc with the
bands of Emiliano Zapata and his
lieutenants.

‘‘The answer to the problem of shoe
wear lies in the useef Neolin Soles” —
so says H. L. Evans of Steubenville,
Ohio.
‘‘For five months,” saysMr.Evans,“l
have been wearing the same pair of
Neolin-soled shoes at my work at the
La B lie Iron Works and they are
good for two months more wear. As
my work takes me to all parts of the
mill daily where I have to walk over
cinders, slag, etc., it is simply out of
the question to buy anything else to
take the place of Neolin Soles.”
You too —and your whole family—will
find Neolin-s .! : 1 shoes wear long and
so save money. You can get them in the
styles you like at almost any good shoe
store. And any repairman will re-sole
your worn shoes with Neolin Soles —
scientifically made to be durable, com
fortable and waterproof. They are
made by The Goodyear Tire & Rubber
Company, Akron, Ohio, who also make
Wingfoot Heels—-guaranteed to out
wear any other heels.
