Colds Are Often Most Serious
Stop Possible Complications.


The disregard of a cold has of
ten brought many a regret. The
fact of sneezing, coughing, or a
fever should be warning enough
that your system needs immedi-
ate attention. Certainly loss of
sleep is most serious. It is a
warning given by nature. It is

At Lakeside. Utah, the mountain is

been found in all quarters OF the world.
| 1t is probably regarded with greater ven

There is some mystery concealed In the
history Of the swatstika. In the old
world It has been found carved on tornbs
in the ruins OF Hissarlik the legendary
Troy OF Homer's HAD: represented In
the ancient cemeteries OF Etruria: cut
on coins OF Asia Minor; Inscribed on
Buddhistic monuments In India, used
among religious symbols in Tibet, and
wcrshipped in ancient Scandinavia. while
In the new world, at the time when the
first Europeans arrived. the swatstika
was known among the Mexicans. the
Central Americans. the Peruvians and
other Indian nations and tribes. II has
been exhumed from prehistoric graves
in the United states.
No universally accepted Interpretation
OF this strange symbol has been offered.
Notwithstanding all the study that has
been devoted to the subject According
10 many It was originally a symbol Of
the sun, Others think It signified the
planet Jupiter, but this appears TO be
based upon tho conventional figure used
to represent that planet. and the opinion

That this ancient and almost universal
sign of good luck should be one of the
most popular in use on the battlefields
of "Armageddon'' Is not matter for
surprise. People who are not super
stitious in ordinary circumstances are apt
to become so in q threatening emergency,
and such symbols as the swastika have
the indefinable power that antiquity gives
over the imagination.
Recent events call attention TO another
kind Of symbol, whose origin Is as OH
scure as that OF some Of the mascot
