The Habit Of Taking Cold.

With many people taking cold
is a habit, but fortunately one
that is easily broken. Take a
cold sponge bath every morning
when you first get out of bed
not ice cold, but temperature
of about 90 degrees +. Also
sleep with your window up. Do
this and you will seldom take
cold. When you do take cold
take Chamberlain's Cough Rem
cdy and get rid of it as quickly as
possible. For sale by Robt. Har-
