Coughing Children.

When a child begins to cough, hard
bronchial cough; when his eyes are
watering and his voice is husky, put
him in as pleasant room as you have,
plenty OF sunshine, and keep him by
himself. When you take him out to
exercise, walk to the nearest open space
and keep him away from other chill
dren. Do not Use the cars or buses.
When child is beginning to develop
whooping cough he coughs with that
hard, bronchial hack, hack, and there
is no way of telling that he has the
whooping cough. 1t may be just an
ordinary cold, and not very serious, and
it may be whooping cough. We have
to wait to see.
Isolate the coughing child. When he
coughs he Is not well. and the presence
of people about him does not allow him
the rest and composure that an ailing
child ought to have. Give him as much
fresh air and sunshine and clear water
and good milk as you can. If he runs
a temperature, call the doctor without
waiting longer.
But do try to keep him away from
other children. Most people believe
that whooping cough is spread in the
early stages when the child Is having
this first hard, short cough. Even If
you do not believe this, remember other
people do, and 1t is best then to keep
your child apart until he ceases to
cough.
