A cold is sometimes contracted while re-

Portable room OF a draft and by falling TO
sleep under like conditions. But most colds
are caught while sleeping too cold at night,
Deep sleep causes sluggish circulation
which renders the system susceptible to
change of temperature. To prevent colds,
sleep under plenty ofcover. To cure colds
use Rydales Elixir, it lessons the severity
and shortens the duration ola cold and pre-
