Beware of Colds
NOW!
With Flu in the Air
Colds Are Doubly Dangerous
Colds always treacherous are doubly
dangerous now, with flu reported in many
sections. They lower body strength and
pave the way for flu and all its serious com
plications. Heed even the slightest sniffle
as a clanger signal. It's no time to take
chances.
'The safest course to follow is that outlined
in Vicks Plan for better Control-ofColds.
In clinical tests last winter, Vicks Plan re
duced the number and spread of colds by
half ! cut. their dangers and costs more than
half! Full details of t'-e plan are in each
Vieks package. Briefl,,itisthis:
TO PREVENT MANY COLDS: At that first I
fee'.Ing of stuffiness or nasal irritation,
sniffle or sneeze Nature's usual warning
that a cold is coming on use Vicks Nose
& Throat Drops, the new aid in preventing
eolds. Vieks Props aid Nature in throw
ing off the infer! ion that threatens. They
prevent development of many colds.
TO END A COLD SOONER: If a cold ha de
veloped or strikes without warning, vieor
ons measures are necessary. At bedtime,
apply Vieks VapoKub. Its direct double
action continuing through the night
brings quicker relief. During the day, use
the convenient Vicks Nose Drops every
few hours as needed. They add to com
' fort help shorten the cold.
Follow Vicks Plan for Better CONTROL of Colds
