Pictured here is a sceha (from Old-Fashioned Methods Still In Use F6 Colds New York tyPD There is j nothing to sneeze about in the findings of a new study (m how we doctor the common cold. Modern medication Is just the beginning of treatment, ays a study of 10,000 house wives. Some 86 per cent of them revert also to treatments like grandma used to use, from garlic hung around the neck in an old sock to a chest rub with goose grease. The manufacturers of buf ferin did the study with writ ten questionnaires, asking among other things, about use of old-fashioned remedies as well at the modern, what housewives did to keep colds from spreading, and whether they thought kissing" spread colds. The three most popular old C time remedies were liquor and v hot tea, hot honey and lemon juice, and a flannel rag on the chest. But most often men tioned as cures they had heard , of were goose grease and tur pentine rub, turpentine and lard rubbed on the chet, aod ; anting raw onions. Gnat Faith in Onions Matter of fact, the womanly faith in onions should make the onion growers of America rejoice. Among the 125 old time remedies listed, onion ranked highest. It was used in a variety of ways as a poul tice, in sugar and boiled vine gar, juice from onions seared on coals, fried onions packed on the i chest and back for deep colds, onion tea, bukfd onions and brown sugar, onton ! poultices on the soles of the ; feet and palms of hands, and raw onions infaldish beside the bed. i Some of the other old-fash ioned remedies listed enough to leave me happy with the sniffles. For instance: Garlic hung around the neck in an old sock. Castor oilf Hen's grease rubber on the chest. Kerosene combined with sugar for a cough. LardY and nutmeg rub bed on the chest. Tobacco and laro in llannel on the chest and neck.) A combination of flaxseed, horehound candy and) lemon combined into a cough syrup. Raw garlic, eaten like raw onion. Sulphur and molasses. And a rub with skunk grease. The study showed the wom en didn't depend entirely on old yme remedies. Forty per cent took two medications concurrently. Two per cent dosed themselvestwith four or more remedies at a time. But 12 per cent said the heckywith any. To the question, "how do you keep a cold from spreads ing,?"- 66 per centmmediate- ly resorted to theuse of dis posable tissues. Hand-washing and gargling were the Giext most popular, pnjy 27.6 per cant forbade kissing. The women were asked also, point blank, whether they thought kissing spread colds. About 55 per cent thought it "sometimes" did. Twenty seven per cent were against kissing. A determined 11 per cent said they didn't care whether smooching spread colds or not.
