Whooping cough is the
"meanest" disease that child
hood is heir to. While rare
ly fatal in itself, except to
children under two years of
age, still it hangs on so long
coughing paroxysms
are so violent, preventing
proper sleep and digestion
that when the disease does
disappear it leaves the child
weakened and run down. In
addition the violent coughing
racks and strains the air
passages and after recovery
this irritation frequently re-
mains.
During this period Of con-
valescence the child should be
most carefully watched until
full strength is restored and
the air passages regain their
normal tone. A prominent
authority even goes so far as
to say-"rhere is more Grim
inal neglect in connection
with whooping cough than
with any other disease"
While the disease is active,
Vick's VapoRub usually helps
to lessen the violence of the
coughing, but it is during
convalescence that Vicks is
most valuable.
