FIFE TREATMENT FOR COLDS

THE TREATMENT FOR COLDS
The best time to knock a cold OUT
is when it first makes its appearance,
because once it becomes established
1t will generally last from eight 10 zen
days OF longer.
Unless a cold turns into some 0
serious disorder, 1t is self : limiting.
After it has run its course, 1t eases
to be. Many people, knowing this, az
not give q cold any treatment except
to give it time. It should be renem-
bered, however, that when q JIG &C.
ours, the body is trying to throw OUT
waste products through the mucous
membranes and it is better to assist
the processes by opening up all OF the
body's channels Of elimination.
One should drink large quantities
of water in order to thoroughly flush
out the system Of acid wastes. The
bowels should be thoroughly cleansed
by one of two enemas daily. Activity
of the pores of the skin should be in
creased by several sponge baths daily
and it is a good plan to induce copl-
Gus perspiration by q sweating treat
ment. After the enema, the patient
should take a hot bath and get into
bed, using only wooden bed coverings.
Hot water bottles should be placed at
the foot of the bed if necessary. ana
the patient should be Thoroughly
tucked in 50 that no air enters under
the covering around the shoulders.
While the patient is perspirine, 1t Is
a good plan for him to drink an IN

over a grapefruit which has been cut
into small pieces. After the mixture
has been allowed to stand for awhile.
the patient should drink the juice.
using from four to eight ounces at a
time, about every half hour. Do not
use other food until the cold has
abated.
The patient should be permitted to
sweat as long as necessary until there
is no abnormal temperature. The
sweating should not be interrupted
for any reason during the first ten
hours. When the temperature be-
comes normal, the patient should be
given clean clothing but kept well
covered for several hours longer.
It is better not to take any exercise
during the first day Of this treatment.
but after that it is we'll to gradually
increase the exercises each day in

to remember that one of the princi-
pal causes Of colds Is fatigue and that

remedy.

The Pricelessness Of Keepsakes

A couple of holdup men entered 6 New York shoe store
the other night. pointed their revolvers at a 6O-ycar-old
clerk. backed him into = corner and proceeded to relieve
him Of his ~valuables.
The old gentleman didn't have much. but what he had
they took. They took everything. that is, except a cheap
ring he was wearing. That he refused to part with.
The gunner got angry and threatened to kill him. He
was obstinate, although the ring. obviously, was not worth
much. They persisted, he hung on to it-until, at last
ono of the thugs got tired Of arguing about 1t and shot
him to death.
Now this provided a brief mystery for the stores man.
ager and the police. after the holdup men had gone
Why should the old chap have chung SO desperately 70
a little, furnished ring that could be duplicated for a
dollar or two in any store?
Then 1t was learned that the ring was a keepsake
which the old clerks dead wife had given him, years ago
And that. Of course, cleared up the mystery. There
wasn't anything puzsling about 1t any more.
Or-was there? We can understand, Of course. how
much deeper mystery that lies back Of it all-the mystery
that is involved in every building up Of affections
memories and sentiments about some remiAder OF a be-
loved phantom?
All Of us, to some extent. share in that sort of thing.
For everyone there is some token Of the past that is
dear beyond words. It may be something cheap. even
slightly ridiculous-an old ring. q withered flower. a
broken toy, a faded snapshot-but we would not part
with 1t. 1t means. sometimes, as much as life itself.
why should this be so? Perhaps it is because we all
know something that we do not often talk about-that
the world is. at bottom. q terribly lonely place: a lonely
place, and often = cruel place. We cannot make a go of
1t by ourselves. We have to feel that somewhere in the
universe there Is another spirit we can touch.
But these others, on whom we depend, go away. So
we cling to the inaninate objects that they used, or wore.
or gave to US: and, by clinging to them. we conjure up
ghosts: lovely. comforting, companionable ghosts, that
make life endurable and keep us from going mad with
loneliness.
Yet 1t is still a mystery. We have Cur moments of
doubt. in which we are not quite sure whether we are
lonely because we are such q long way from our true
home. on the other side Of the stars, or simply because
we have no home there at all, and are eternally adrift in
black night. So We clutch our trinkets close-and de-
fend them with our lives.

Prisons and Babies

A tiny sentence in a newspaper story sometimes will
provide more food for thought than all the rest of the
newspaper put together.
There was, for instance, a recent story telling of condi-
tons in Auburn prison, in New York, where two bloody
riots took place in 1929.
This story, after reviewing the now-familiar story of
over-crowding and a~ntiquated equipment, added that
conditions are best in the women's wing of the prison,
(which houses lis inmates-and three babies"
You can chew over that last little singer in that GEN.

over it, you'll never be able to get anything but an al

state Of the richest nation on earth. in the twentieth Gen.

necessary to keep three babies in q state penitentiary.

you find yourself feeling that everything is for the best
In the best Of all possible worlds.
And It isn't as II Auburn prison we're the only Of
fender. Probably every state in the union could duplicate
this record. In the evolution Of human stupidity, no
way has yet been found Of sending q mother to prison
