Hints on Health.
By Marie Herman, County Nurse

Colds are contagious. They are caused
by germs and can be transmitted from
person + erson through the discharges
from t. mouth and nose. Colds are
not caused by draughts. wet feet. sudden
changes of temperature. or chilling of
the body; however these conditions favor
the growth OF germs and may increase
the severity Of cold by weakening the
body and lowering the power OF re-
sistance.
Colds are more common in winter than
in the summer because of poor ventiia-
ton and unsanitary conditions in homes
and public places and close contact of
children in the schools Other things
which predispose to catching colds are
oyereating. constipation and inactivity
of the skin.
RULES FOR PREVENTING COLDS.
Do not get too close to others who
may have colds.
Do not use handkerchefs, towels.
drinking cups, toys, pencils, and other
objects that have been used by persons
who have colds. They are apt to be
contaminated with secretions and will
transmit the cold.
Do not sneeze or cough except into
your own handkerchief The germs
causing colds are often found in the nose,
throat and mouth of we'll persons.
Avoid crowds as much as possible.
Do not spit on the floor or sidewalk,
and thus help to spread colds and other
diseases.
Battle and change the clothes
frequently.
Spend part OF each day in the open air.
if possible.
Get at least eight hours Sleep
Eat three full meals day
Have a bowel movement every day.
Keen your body in good condition and
you will be able to resist the germs caus-
ing colds.
Do not neglect cold. the complica-
tons are sometimes serious.
