How to Frsvena Taking Cold.


A person in good health easily resists
cold, but when the health flags and lib
critics are taken with the stomach or
with the nervous system chill ia east.
" taken, and, according to the weak
spot Of the individual, assumes the
form Of q cold or pneumonia, or, it may;
be, jaundioe. OF all causes Of cold
probably fatigue is one, Of the most
efficient. A. jaded man coming home at
night from; q. long days work, grow.
ing youth losing two hours sleep over
evening parties two or three times q
week, or young lady heavily "doing
the season." or young children overfed
and with short allowance Of sleep, are
common instances of the victims Of
cold. -.. 49, -.
Luxury is favorable to chill taking.
Very hot rooms; feather beds and soft
chairs create sensitiveness that leads to
oatarrhs. Some of the worst colds hap
pen to those who do not leave their
