FOR RHEUMATIC AGONY, LUMBAGO AND NEURALGIA No Chocking, Blinding Fumes Accompany Its Use Contains Real Mustard. The pain of rheumatism and gout -the swelling--the soreness--are relieved quicker by Begy's Mustarine than by any liniment or plaster. When you begin to feel those occasional pains in the chest, with tightness and soreness, the best thing to do right away is to rub on Begy's Mustarine. The chances are it will save you from pleurisy, bronchitis and perhaps pneumonia. Mustarine (Begy's) is the original mustard preparation compounded to take the place of mustard plasters.

It is better than any mustard plaster--far better--for it has twice the strength and can be kept on until all inflammation, soreness, aches and pains have disappeared. And it cannot blister--not even the tenderest skin. You ought to have a box of Begy's Mustarine in the house, because it stops headache, earache, toothache and backache in half the time it takes ordinary remedies. It's simply wonderful how quickly it brings relief in neuralgia, neuritis, sciatica, lumbago. While afor strains, sprains, sore musctes, cramps in legs, neck, inflamed and frosted feet it is without an equal.

A small box costs but a trifle and will do the work of 50 mustard plasters. Be sure it's Begy's Mustarine-always in the yellow box. -Advertisement. MUSTARIN TEST SELLS from HUBER TRACTOR Clipped 1e "Charlotte Re- S- Purchase Contingent On Machine publican" Jan. ting Results Get17, 1919.
