Tears ago the old-fashioned 
mustard plaster was the favor¬ 
ite remedy for rheumatism, 
lumbago, colds on the chest 
and sore throat. 
It <Jid the work all right, but it was 
sticky and messy to apply and my how 
it did burn and blister! 
The little white jar of Musterole has 
taken the place of the stern old mus¬ 
tard plaster. 
Keep this soothing ointment on your 
bathroom shelf and bring it out at the 
first oough or sniffle, at rheumatism’s 
first warning tingle. 
Made from pure oil of mustard, with 
the blister and sting taken out, Mus¬ 
terole penetrates the skin and goes 
right down to the seat of the trouble. 
To Mothers: Musterole is also made 
in milder form for babies and small 
children. Ask forChildren’sMusterole.

BETTER THAN A MUSTARD PLASTER 
were finished there was nothing left to 
do but settle.) Then I put on one coat 
of the cheap filler which is made espe¬ 
cially to fill the grain of the wood and 
prepare a non-absorbent surface for the 
later coats of paint. Then I was ready 
for those cracks. I found the prepared 
filler which one buys at the paint store 
did not go far when one considered its 
cost, and while casting about for a cheap¬ 
er substitute a carpenter who was work¬ 
ing hero told me to take two parts of 
linseed oil to one part of Japan drier, put 
in a basin and mix in flour until it was 
the consistency of putty. Keep this in an 
airtight can and it will stay moist for 
several weeks. I did this, and found my 
homemade substitute superior to the com¬ 
mercial kind, and less than one-half as 
expensive. I find after more than a year 
of hard wear it doesn’t loosen and come 
out as the ready-made kind does. The 
crack filler should be allowed to dry about 
24 hours before putting on any paint. 
I wanted dark floors, so I used two 
coats of walnut brown floor enamel which 
is especially tough and wear-resisting, 
finishing with one or possibly two coats 
of dark oak varnish. A coat of clear 
water-spar varnish is fine for protecting 
a floor, as water can be used for cleaning, 
but it should be renewed about once a

year. Waxing is also a good protection, 
but one must be unusually sure-footed 
when stepping on a small rug, or a bad 
tall is apt to be the result. Wearing 
rubber heels will save your floors more 
than any other one thing I know of, for 
those sharp little shoe nails will punch 
through varnish or the surface of linole¬ 
um until your floors are badly scarred, 
and nothing will remove these marks. 
Upstairs I painted all the room floors and 
hall alike, using just the floor enamel, 
without any varnish. A color that har¬ 
monizes w’ith the woodwork and general 
color scheme and that doesn’t show dust 
too readily is a good choice. 
1 now have but one large rug in the 
house that has to be taken outdoors to 
clean, and it certainly is a great saver of 
strength, not only at housecleaning time 
but on the weekday sweeping as well. 
Xow that all kinds of rag rugs are so 
fashionable, no farm woman has any ex¬ 
cuse for not having good-looking, easily- 
kept-elean floors all over the house. It 
sometimes takes several years to make 
such a complete change, but the end is 
certainly worth striving for.
