COMMON COLDS.
Many parents blame the cold,
foggy weather for the condition of
their children's health and realiz
ing that the child may have a se
vere cold still send they to school
where in a warm room with many
other children they may spread that
one cold through an entire room.
For, as scientists have proved, colds
do not originate from cold, sunless
months but from germs given off
from the body by coughing, sneez
ing, etc.
The old idea that colds are due to
exposure to cold is erroneous. In
fact the opposite is true. If one is
out in the cold air they breathe
more deeply and thus tone up the
bodily health. All sorts of winter
outdoor sports and sleeping on open
air porches, help one to build up re
sistance to colds. The reason that
we take colds easily in the winter Is
that we have lowered our resistance
to infection by having our houses
overheated. Then when we go out
side, the change in temperature is
so great that the blood temperature
at the surface of the body is low
ered. When this temperature is low
ered one degree Fahrenheit, the
power of the body to resist germs
is decreased, and the lungs invite
the pneumonia germs, always lurk
ing in the throat and nasal pas
sages, to come in and spend a cozy
winter. ,
There is no use to bundle up a
child In woolen clothes after he has
taken cold. In, fact, the heavy cloth
ing only prevents healthy skin func
tioning. But on the other hand, it
is not wise to wear too light cloth
ing since much of the body's resistr
ance must be used up in keeping
the body warm.
If one is not accustomed to being
outdoors much during the winter
months it would be foolish for him
to try the cold, outdoor cure for a
cold. It would be much better in
such a case to watch the diet care
fully and be sure that he is getting
sufficient amounts of vitamin A
which helps to prevent infectious
diseases of the nose, throat and
lungs. Foods which are rich in vit
amin A are milk, butter, eggs, liver,
cod-liver oil (am especially good
source), leafy green vegetables such

In summing up methods of pre
venting colds, I would say: 1. If
you have a severe cold, stay in bed
for a day or at least keep away
from other people. If a child has a
cold, keeping him out of school a
day of two may prevent his giving
it to many other children and will
probably break it up more quickly,
too.
2. Watch your diet Eat sufficient
quantities of vitamin A.
3. Get lots of outdoor exercise and
fresh air.
4. Dress warmly but do not bun
dle up. Don't pamper your neck by
having it all muffled up every time
you step outside.
5. And last, but not least, when
you do have a cold, be exceedingly
careful to cough and sneeze into a
handkerchief and thus prevent scat
tering the germs broadcast
