Here’s the Way to Treat Those Miserable Colds So Prevalent Here Now ITH scattered cases of flu breaking out in this locality, don’t take chances with colds NOW—it’s too dangerous! Unless checked promptly, colds tend to pull down the body re- sistance and may pave the way for an attack of flu with all its serious complications. 1 2 At the first sign of stuffiness or irritation in the nose or throat, snuff some Vicks VapoRub up the nose several times aday. This will often check a cold at the start. If the head is all “stuffed up”—clogged with mucus or phlegm \ —or there is much coughing, melt a teaspoonful of Vicks in a bowl or kettle of hot water and inhale the steaming vapors for five minutes at a time. This treatment has a remarkable effect in clearing the air passages, easing the breathing, sooth- ing the irritation, relieving the cough, and helps to prevent the cold from spreading. At’ bedtime, in order to get the benefit of its long-continued stimulation and inhalation effect, ruib Vicks ‘vigorously over the throat and chest and cover with warm flannel. If possible, stay at home until the cold is broken. Complete - rest helps the body to throw off the cold more quickly. 4 Mother!—treat children’s colds promptly, but avoid “dos- ing.” Too much internal medicine often upsets the child’s | digestion and lowers the vitality. Being applied externally, Vicks does not upset the stomach, and can be used freely and as often as needed without the slightest harmful effect.
