SAVE SHOES!
In a long chase for a criminal. J. E.
Jones, a secret service man of Chicago,
wore one pair of shoes with Neolin
Soles for nineteen months. This chase
covering both American continents
and Australia, ended in April, 1917.
The shoes were then given a mechanic i
at Clearing, 111., and were worn by
Aim another seven months. . ,
"Until I discovered shoes with
Neolin Soles, I bought new shoes about
every two months,” said Mr. Jones.
Twenty-six months of wear under
conditions such as these is indeed
extraordinary even for Neolin Soles.
But Neolin Soles are made by Science
to be especially durable. They are
comfortable and waterproof, too. You
can get them on new shoes for men,
women and children, or for re-soling.
Manufactured by The Goodyear Tire
& Rubber Co., Akron, Ohio, who also
make Wingfoot Heels, guaranteed to
outwear all other heels.

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
cloth. You simply rub it on—and usually
the pain is gone! a
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, croup,
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
