= How to Prevent Colds.
The easiest way to catch cold Is
when one is overheated. One should
open only in summer weather. The
most familiar causes of taking cold
are sitting in draught, wearing in
sufficient clothing. insufficiently pro-
tected feet and ill-ventilated rooms.
Colds occur most frequently in the
spring or fall when the temperature Is
moderately low, subject to sudden
changes, when there is notable damp
ness of the atmosphere and high
winds.
Catarrh has intimate relation with
colds. Recurring colds in the head
ccnduce to further colds. Those grad
ually localize themselves further down,
giving rise In succession to sore throat,
bronchitis and then fixes itself upon
the lung, when the treatment is so
often Intellectual, whereas at first the
treatment is simple matter. Catarrh
does not necessarily lead to consump-
ton, but when the resistance of the
lungs is diminished the germs of con-
sumption find favorable soil for their
development.
Most important is the clothing,
which should be sufficient for warmth
and comfort. Avoid the coddling Of
any one part or leaving any one por-
ton unduly exposed. The place to
wear chest protector is on the soles
of the feet. The nature OF the fabric
to be worn next to the skin is a thor.
oughly porous one, like linen mesh,
and regulate the outer garments ac-
cording to the weather. The feet at
all times should be kept warm and dry.
