Why Colds Are Dangerous.

You are often told to beware
OF a cold" but why? We will
tell you: Every cold weakens the
lungs, lowers the vitality and
paves the way for the more Sc
rious diseases. People who con-
tract pneumonia first take cold.
The longer a cold hangs on, the
greater the danger, especially
from the germ diseases. as a
cold prepares the system for the
reception and development of
the germs Of consumption,
diptheria, scarlet fever and
whooping cough. The quicker
you get rid Of your cold, the less
the danger of contracting one
these diseases. Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy has q great rep
utatlon as a cure for colds and
can be depended upon. 1t is
pleasant to take. Adv.
