chronic lung infections, rheumatism,
heart disorders, kidney impairment and
depressed vitality may all follow In the
train of this widespread infection.
To prevent cold it is necessary,
first of all, to keep the body resistance
at high point of efficiency This
means that the body machinery should
be kept in good order at all times.
Good, wholesome food in proper
amount, plenty of sleep, the careful
attendance to the voiding of the body
wastes, the taking of regular exercise
in the open air, keeping the body clean,
keeping the mouth and nose clean, the
avoidance of hot, stuffy, dusty rooms,
the avoidance of exposure to sudden
changes of temperature, the prevention
of the chilling of the body, either by
cold or wet, are all protective meas,
ureS. 1t should be borne in mind how
ever that even robust persons may con-
tract colds from people who have them.
The germs of colds leave the body
in the secretiOns of the mouth and nose.
They enter the body through the same
route. Thus q careless sneeZer and the
person who does not cover his mouth
and nose when he coughs are breeders
of these infections.
The little living bodies which cause
colds are so small that a million could
rest on the head of a pin. When a
person coughs or sneezes fine spray
carrying with it untold numbers Of
these germs is spread into the sur
rounding atmosphere to a distance Of
several feet and may be easily taken
into the mouth and nose with the re-
Spired air
More direct contact, such as by kiss
ing, the common drinking cup, the
common roller towel, by pipes, toys,
pencils, fingers, food and other things
which have been contaminated by the
mouth and nose secretOns Of a person
having a cold may also carry the dis
ease.
It is an obligation on the part of
persons having colds to see to 1t that
they do not spread these colds TO some
body else. The person who neglects TO

duce tuberculosis, yet, unfortunately,
what Is considered as a cold may be
In reality the first symptoms of the
white plague
The causes of colds are multifOrm
and not entirely understood In every
case, however, they are dependent upon
the growth and activity of living germs
which are always received from other
people 1t is true that almost every
body harbors disease organisms in the
mouth and nose and that these under
favorable conditions will produce a
cold in their host. But these germs in
every case were received from some other
person. In other words, colds are in
fictitious
1t used to be thought that sitting IN
a draft or a prolonged stay in the
swimming pool would produce cold.
This is erroneous, but the chilling of
the body which the draft produces and
the weakening of the vital forces
caused by too long a swim lower the
powers of resistance and permit germs
which have hitherto been harmless 10
their host to produce their disastrous
effects
It is not necessary to describe a cold
Everybody is familiar with it in all its
variations, from the simple ordinary
coryza, which is polite running at the
nose. to the sore throat, the aching
chest, fever and generally knocked
out feeling. The cough, the sneeze,
the headache and the varying degrees
of inefficiency which a cold produces
are, alas, only too well known.
Common colds occur IN epidemics
and are distinctly contagious. They
sweep through an entire household an
entire city, an entire State, attacking
the young, the adolescent, the middle
aged, and frequently carrying off the
aged, the weak and the debilitated.
Schools, factories, stores are suddenly
crippled by epidemics of this sort, and
the complications and serio1s disorders
following the disease add 20 the great
economic loss produced in this way

ter, the person who permits his germ
laden discharges to cOntaminate things
which are going to be handled by other
people is a menace 10 the community
If such a person uses public swimming
pools, If he is not amenable to reason
and persists in distributing his infec-
ton, be should be avoided as a spreader
of pestilence.
A good deal has been said about
hardening people so that they will not
contract colds. There is an element of
danger in this, since to expose a weak
person to the rigorS of cold baths and
cold draftssis apt to lower resistance,
thus favoring the very condition which
it is desired to avoid.
AT the same timN it should not be
forgotten that the Arctic explorer does
not ordinarily have colds so long as he
stays out in the open, and that it is not
the engineer and fireman in the cold,
drafty cab who have colds, but those
who ride in the close, dusty, overheated
coaches behind. When all is said. il
must be admitted that dusty, unventi-
lated rooms perhaps play the greatest
role in producing colds.
Standardization or medication by I'M
trained persons is always dangerous.
Ii is especially dangerous TO those hav-
ing colds and should always be serupu-
lousy avoided. AS a rule, much time,
inconvenience and suffering will be OBJ
waited by consulting an intelligent
physician promptly.
The sick room should be well venti-
lated and the windows so opened as 10
keep the air moving freely. 1t is also
wise to moisten the air a Little bit by
putting a pan of water on the radiator
or on the stove. The handkerchiefs
and bedding used by the patient should
be sterilized by boiling. Kissing, and
the use of drinking cups and towels,
etc. in common with other members
of the household should be forbidden,
il being borne in mind constantly that
colds are infectious and readily spread
from one person to another.

T\HE most prevalent illness In the
United States Is the common
cold, a disease group included
under one name and considered of such
minor Importance that vital statistics
do not record the enormous number of
persons who annually are subjected to
suffering, inconvenience and economic
loss thereby Remarkable as it may
seem, the widespread familiarity with
this condition has bred a contempt
which hides its seriousness, yet when
the sum total of the ravages committed
by common colds is made it becomes
evident that instead of being a group
of trivial affections. common colds must
be classed as serious diseases.
The phrase common colds" like
charity covers a multitude of SAM
tary sins. and, curiouSly enough. the
name has been applied 10 a group of
affections which. far from depending
absolutely on cold, are frequently the
direct result of living IN close. over
heated surroundings having a lower
relative humidity than the drieSt desert
known 10 man.
The word colds" means an acute
infection of the lining membranes Of
the nose. tonsils. throat and large bron-
chial tubes. The process may be even
more extensive and amount to a gen
eral infection of the entire body AL
Of the breathing apparatus, excepting
the smaller terminal portions in the
lungs, may be involved. and, as a mat
GER of fact, the disease may, and often
does, spread TO these. thus producing
pneumonia.
In this connection it may be pointed
out that pneumonia kills more people
IN the United States than any other
disease, excepting tuberculosis and
heart disease. Many pneumOnias begin
as a common cold. Colds do not pro

SENATORS ENGAGE IN
BITTER WORD BATTLE
Obstructionists Come Off Sec.
ond Best in Scrap Precipi-
tated by Tax Bill.

WASHINGTON, Sept. TN the
midst of another bitter outburst over
American unity in prosecuting the war
the senate late today tentatively dis
posed of the income tax provision or
the war tax bill and again defeated all
attempts at higher taxation.
Interest In virtual adoption OF the
income tax section, designed to raise
$S42, 100000 more revenue from in
dividual and corporate incomes, was
overshadowed by stormy three-hour
scene in which Senatoy Hardwick OF
Georgia was subjected to vigorous
criticism by Senator Nelson, RepubH-
can. and Senators Chamberlain ana
Williams, Democrats. The incident
hardly has been equalled In the senate
since passage of the army draft law.
An amendment by Senator Hard
wick to increase taxes on large in
comes in order to pay $50 monthly
bonus to all Americans serving In
France stirred up the senate's temper.
II was promptly voted down, "a TO 8,
having the support only OF Senators
Gronna. Hardwick, LaFollette, Reed
and Vardaman-all of the group
which opposed the draft act. But De-
fore and long after It's disposition and
with scant affection paid approval Of
the big income tax levy, the senate
was engaged in the war of words II
provoked.
Senator IaFollette had offered the
amendment yesterday for Senator
Hardwick, who was absent. When the
Georgia senator urged its adoption as
n conscription OF wealth to pay SOL
diers conscrtpted he was assailed by
