or Colds and<br />
Congestions<br />
Remember thetime when<br />
you bad that dreadful congestion<br />
<strong>of</strong> the lungs—and<br />
Grandmaslapped asttnging,<br />
messy mustard plaster on<br />
your chest? How you writhed<br />
and tossed and begged Grandma<br />
to "take it <strong>of</strong>f"? i<br />
That wasmany years ago. Now,<br />
Grandma gets the jar <strong>of</strong> Musterole,<br />
for now she knows .Mnsterole is<br />
better than a mustard plaster.<br />
She knows it brings quicker<br />
relief—and does not blister.<br />
For coughs, colds and congestions,<br />
this clean, white ointment<br />
made with oil <strong>of</strong> mustard and a<br />
few home simples is uncommonly<br />
effective.<br />
Yon just rub it On your throat<br />
: -«r chest It penetrates way down<br />
' under-the skin and generates its<br />
own peculiar heat which soon<br />
loosens up the coughanddisperses<br />
congestion.<br />
Strangely enough, it does, not<br />
/ee/warm after the first momentary<br />
glow and tingle, but is dev<br />
lightfully cool and soothing.<br />
Try it Ifor croup, bronchitis,<br />
' . ': coughs, colds (it <strong>of</strong>ten prevents<br />
pneumonia), headache, neuralgia,<br />
. stiff neck, rheumatism or lum-<br />
: bago.<br />
.-V Many doctors and nurses use<br />
. • ' Musterole themselves and recommend<br />
it to their patients.<br />

MUSIC IN THE HOME<br />
A List <strong>of</strong> Popular Selections From Which to Choose<br />
E VANGELINE P ERSON<br />
THE readers <strong>of</strong> THE FARMER ' S WIFE<br />
all must be music lovers judging<br />
from ' the hundreds <strong>of</strong> letters arriv-^.<br />
ing each day asking for the pieces<br />
<strong>of</strong> music listed in our last issue. This overwhelming<br />
response to our <strong>of</strong>fer to supply<br />
readers with information about current<br />
music <strong>of</strong> proven popularity induces THE<br />
FARMER' S WIFE staff to continue the department<br />
regularly in each issue hereafter.<br />
There is nothing that adds more to the<br />
happiness <strong>of</strong> home life than .music—good<br />
music. Unfortunately, few <strong>of</strong> .us know<br />
just what music will jast suit until we try<br />
it and even then it cannot ' always be obtained<br />
at the local store. This is particularly<br />
true in the country where one does'<br />
not have the opportunity afforded in the<br />
city for hearing the latest compositions.<br />
To guide you in this matter <strong>of</strong> selecting<br />
music and to give you the opportunity <strong>of</strong><br />
securing it, explains the inauguration <strong>of</strong> this<br />
new department in THE FARMER'S WIFE.<br />
„.I propose to list in THE FARMER'S WIFE<br />
each month only music that is new and<br />
yet which has proven to be popular by<br />
large sales. At the same time, care will be<br />
taken to recommend music that is reasonably<br />
simple and which cannot be classed<br />
as trash. Notations will be given as to<br />
grade and time in order that one may choose<br />
the pieces best suited to training and ability.<br />
The editor <strong>of</strong> this department will<br />
be pleased to answer correspondence pertaining<br />
to music not .listed or general questions<br />
about musical* training provided a<br />
stamp is enclosed with the query.<br />
The list this month contains an agreeable<br />
assortment <strong>of</strong> new music, .the sort you<br />
hear whistled or hummed most everywhere<br />
you go in the large cities. It is music that<br />
I think you will like to hear.<br />
If so desired, readers can continue to order<br />
the music listed last month. It<br />
seemed, from the orders, that nearly everyone<br />
wanted the old but lasting favorite,<br />
Till We Meet Again. I'm Forever Blowing<br />
Bubbles and Oh, What a Pal Was<br />
Mary! were also great favorites.<br />
Feel perfectly free to use this new department<br />
in THE FARMER'S WIFE. I can<br />
secure for you almost any.music you wish,<br />
if you will only tell me. The list I give is<br />
merely suggestive. Some <strong>of</strong> the old tried<br />
pieces may suit you better. You may<br />
want music for special instruments. You<br />
may desire ftiusic for the school or music<br />
for community singing. Perhaps you may<br />
wish some selections <strong>of</strong> sacred music. Let<br />
me know and I will try to help you. The<br />
purpose <strong>of</strong> this department is not to sell<br />
music but rather to put you in touch with<br />
a service that is not supplied in your local<br />
town. Please remember also that the<br />
same selections can be secured, in most<br />
cases, for the phonograph and for the<br />
player-piano. See your local music dealer<br />
about records or piano rolls which vary<br />
in price and which can not readily be supplied<br />
from this <strong>of</strong>fice.<br />
M ARGARET A. B ARTLETT<br />
INSTINCTS , we are told, if thwarted at .<br />
their first appearance, many times die a<br />
sudden death. A baby deprived <strong>of</strong><br />
crusts and crackers at the period when<br />
the desire comes to chew and fed strictly<br />
a milk diet long after solid foods should<br />
have been introduced, is almost certain to<br />
have the instinct to chew all but killed in<br />
him, and aroused again only after long,<br />
patient coaxing and training.<br />
The same is true with the child's instinct<br />
to love. Love for parents and brothers<br />
and sisters is taken as a matter <strong>of</strong><br />
course. They love the child and the<br />
child loves them. But a child's love is<br />
not bestowed wholly on humans: he has an<br />
instinctive desire to love all animals. And<br />
it is this love instinct which many parents<br />
fail to foster.<br />
An unwise mother can change his baby<br />
love to fear and hate. "Bad old cat !<br />
Get out <strong>of</strong> here!"—these words supplemented<br />
with a kick or cuffing, will amuse<br />
the baby, when kitty scratches but they<br />
will never induce love and kindnessjin him.<br />
Later, when the child has fully understood<br />
abdut hurting things, he will begin<br />
to lavish h is love on everything. His tender<br />

BABY LOVES THEM ALL<br />
heart will be touchedjat sight <strong>of</strong> anything<br />
being killed. Yet there are certain "deaths"<br />
which must occur. Endeavor, however,<br />
to get the child to understand fully why a<br />
fly is dangerous to have around before you<br />
swat it. Show him the rose petals sadly<br />
eaten by. the fat green worm before you<br />
pick it <strong>of</strong>f and crush it.<br />
If his love turns toward toads and<br />
snakes and ants, do not discourage it.<br />
The farmer has no better friend than the<br />
toads and common snakes. Yet there are<br />
many, many grown-up men who still insist<br />
on driving the toad and snake from the<br />
gardens. And no one can deny that even a<br />
child can learn lessons <strong>of</strong> value from the<br />
busy ants. I have seen my own little lad<br />
<strong>of</strong> five stretched flat on his stomach , resting<br />
on his elbows, with chin cupped in<br />
hands, watching an ant-hill for half an<br />
hour or so. Eventually he would come<br />
running to me, able to tell how the "nice<br />
little ants" threw up the dirt to make their<br />
houses, how they carried a dead fly into<br />
. their house and innumerable other facts I<br />
' myself had never noted. Baby's dawning<br />
love for all things is at first in the hands<br />
<strong>of</strong> those who have him in charge.<br />
