How to Avoid Colds.

Before you leave a warm room and
open the street door to 90 out, always
remember to shut your mouth. Keep
it closed until you have walked brisk
~ for about ten minutes. Then, If
you keep on walking, you may talk
as much as you please.
IF you keep your mouth closed and
walk briskly, the air can only reach
the lungs by a circuit Of the nose and
head and become warm before reach
ing them, thus causing M derange-
ment Of these very important organs.
On the other hand, large draughts Of
cold air dash directly in upon the
