How to Cure a Cold.

To cure a cold first stop eating.
The system is overloaded with i'm
purities and they must be eliminated.
Fast until these poisons can be dis
posed of in a natural way. Take
long walks, drawing in many deep,
full breaths; exercise every muscle
of the body that the circulation may
be quiCkened and every part Of the
body thoroughly cleaned by this ac-
celebrated circulation. Battle at least
once a day, rubbing the surface of
the body briskly all over for five or
ten minutes. After missing from
two to three meals if a ravenous ap-
petite is acquired it is, of course, de-
sirable to indulge this appetite, but
in moderation. Under no circum-
stances should the stomach be
gorged, and those foods which ara
unwhoIesome or but moderately nu.
tritious should be avoided.-Chicagu
Chronicle.
