MUSCULAR RHEUMATIC PAINS IT takes more than a salve to draw them out. It takes a “counterirritant”! And that’s what good old Musterole is—soothing, warming, penetrating and helpful in drawing out the pain and congestion when rubbed on the sore, aching spots. Muscular lumbago, soreness and stillness generally yield promptly to this treatment, and with continued application once an hour, blessed relief is often experienced in five hours. Even better results than the neverfailing old-fashioned mustard plaster. Used by millions of people. Recommended by many doctors and nurses. All druggists.

n b a •Gets 'Em Told’ #/ Timr/i Special TIPTON. Jan. 4—Colleagues of Oscar Vanness, new Tipton county comissioner, refused to support him on two economy proposals made shortly after he assumed office. Mr. Vanness suggested that telephones be removed from county offices with exception of one instrument for each floor of the courthouse. Other commissioners declared the phones were needed and said often were in use at the same time in all offices. Then the new commissioner retorted that when board meetings are called, it would be necessary to send a letter or have someone call at his home, as he has no phone. Pointing out that salary of the Madison township road supervisor is 5129.80 a month, Mr. Vanness said he could get a man who would take the job for $97.66.

Your doctor will tell you ninety per cent of all sickness comes from inactive bowels and liver. Dr. Edwards, a well-known physician in Ohio, perfected a vegetable compound as a substitute for calomel to act on the liver and bowels, which he gave to his patients for years. Pr.
