IF YOU GUESS IT'S A "COLD"

IL YOO dUESS IL > "A 'COLD
In a review of the progress of
science in 1888 Ransom Sutton OBJ
served that the doctors are still
guessing about the cause Of the
common cold. That is putting 1t
mildly.
In scientific medicine Koch's law
is universally recognized as a ra-
tional test of the putative cause OF
a disease. Briefly these are the
rules formulated by Koch:
/. The organism should be
found in the bodies of animals
Cor persons) having the dis
ease.
2. It should be found in
that disease and no other.
3. 1t should occur in such
numbers and be distributed in
such a manner as to explain
the legions Of the disease.
4. The organism should be
obtained from the diseased in
dividual and propagated In
pure culture outside of the
body.
5. incubation of suscep-
tible animal with n pure Gull
ture of the organism obtained
by successive transplantations
from the smallest particle of
matter taken from the original
diseased individual should
produce the Same disease.
6. A pure culture of the or
ganism should be obtained
from this inoculated animal.
Seldom is it necessary to fulfill
all of these rules to the letter in
order to be reasonably sure a given
germ Is the cause of a given dis
ease, but any claims set up In ref
erence to the cause Of disease
must at least satisfy the first two
requirements If 1t is to have any
standing in court.

each strip by wrapping it around

What was wrong with him, any,

opened, occasioning much ssh-ing
land craning of necks among the
rest of the audience. Derek found
himself next to young woman in
ice blue satin. She had brown curls.
For no good reason, she reminded
him of Gypsy Weaver.
She flirted with him putrageously
during intermission. He was prop
erly gallant, said all the right
things. Under his mask of impas-
siyity, he was terribly bored.

University savants and eminent
medical prestidigitators who peri
odically elucidate the nature,
cause, prevention and cure of the
Common cold" know their public.
They naively imply that any fool
knows what common cold is, and
leave it at that.
However, no one has sufficient
scientific assurance to define such
an entity of malady. The boys who
get the fine front page publicity II
connection with the periodic dis
covery of the cause of the common
cold naturally prefer to keep the
thing vague. The more elusive and
intangible it is the greater leeway
they have in the scramble for front
page mention.
SO we can assure those who re-
cord current history that there is
darn small chance of anybody
really finding the cause of "the
common cold" until somebody
finds and brings back alive bona
fide specimen of "the common
cold"
Yes, I know-any fool can en-
tighten mo about this at almost
any time. But I have quito lost
hope of being introduced to 1.-THE
common cold" by person of sci
entific attainment or character.
There is no such disease as "the
common cold" If you imagine you
have such an illness, heaven only
knows what it will prove to be.
Certainly your doctor doesn't;
that's why he let's you drift along
with your trick diagnosis. He'll
find out tomorrow or next week
maybe what really ails you.
