idea obstructive to life and health.
When the system is tatigued with eN-
erciSe. Vcr-hcated, or sweating, great
caution is necessary to guard against
taking cold. But are they never i'll ill
some form o, yes but they do not
cough, and conclude they do not take IA
cold.
Colds do not affect all people alike.
All don't cough that have been exposed
to cold but the insensible perspiration
cannot lie suddenly checked without i'll
