How it will tingle at first and then grow ever so cool. And how it will reach inand penetrate right to the spot! It will dis- sipate all that stuffy con- estion that causes that acking cough. Why shouldn’t grand- mother swear by Musterole for colds and coughs? It is betterthana mustard plaster Rood as that was in the old days.

Many doctors and nurses recommend Musterole. 30c and 60c jars—$2.50 hospital size.

No distinctly American furniture form is so widely known and so generally beloved as the Windsor chair. Yet there has becn almost nothing in print to guide the student or collector through the maze of types and forms that survive. Mr Nutting, himself the owner of one of the finest existing collections, has here pre- sented over one hundred full-page pic- tures of chairs variously owned, and ac- is companies each illustration by a page of analytical, historical and esthetic com- ment.
