COLDS.
COLD IS LOOKED UPON as a trivial complaint. A neglecter_
cold used to be regarded as a forerunner of consumption, but
is now well known that a cold is but an incident in a dist' a ,.
which is due to a specific cause, namely the bacillus of tuber
euiosis. But a cold, espeeally "a cold in the head," is really a .serious
-trouble not sc much for the annoyance it causes one but for the dangerous
•nonditions which frequently result from it.
For example, a "cold in the head" may start an earache in a child.
The earache if neglected—as it often is—may result in mastoid abscess;
that is, a collection of pus in the honeycomb' structureof bone just behind.
the ear, whieb can be cured only by a severe operation. This, if neglecters.
may cause an inflammation of the brain structures and the death of the
patient.
The neglected earache may cause trouble in, another direction. . It is
a common occurrence that the ear drum from the force. of the pus behind it
breaks and there is a long course of discharging ear or deafness which If
neglected may persist for life. The earache can be readily relieved and all
'danger and after sequelae referred to prevented by a timely :opening of the
'ear' drum. "Laudanum drops," "warm sweet oil," etc., are of no value in
the treatment. Puncturingthe drum is a simple, rapid, and effectual
treatment of the affection which soon secures complete recovery. Th.e
other day one of our district health officers had a conference with the reeve
and members of tbe Board of Health of a township not very far from.
-Toronto. The reeve was objecting to the cost of Board of Health work, and'
incidentally remarked that "he thought it better that children should get
all these diseases such as scarlet fever, measles, and have done with them."
.In tee course of conversation the local doctor asked him how his boy was.
The boy had had scarlet fever. The father replied that he, had become
very deaf, the result of the scarlet fever. So the district officer asked him
how many dollars be would be willing to pay to. leave •.the'bay's hearing
3estured, w1 ' •h a more careful protection against communicable diseases
migbt have prevented. The father had no further argument to offer.
"Spitting" is considered .disgusting and d,:nge,•ous, and signs are put
-up warning the public against expectorating in putblic places. "Sneezing"
-is a habit which still occupies a polite .place in .people's manners, yet the
one i.s probably as dangerous as the ,other. Holy can one expect to avoid
colds with their consequences in riding an the crowded' street cars of our
cities?
PLUNGES AND'SWIM1'M7ING POOLS.
Fresh and salt water plunges may carry widespread infection, especially
'during the season when nasal and throat affections are common. Many
.colds, cases of ear trouble, and mastoid abscesses occur from dirty swim-
ming tanks, Ninety per cent. of cases of middle ear abscess_ and mastoid
disease result directly from ordinary "colds in the head" and "sore
--throat," Nearly all cases of suppuration of the sinuses of the head (hol-
low spaces in the cheek bones frontal and other bones of the head) result
.from colds. A cold is an infection just as diphtheria -or measles or scarlet
..fever are.
HOW TO PREVENT COLDS.
(1) A daily cold batbor a cold sponge bath of the face, chest, neck,
.-an:l shoulders.`
(2) Fresh moving air in one's bedroom. Don't be afraid of outdoor
air.
(2) Avoid ptihlic plunges and swimming tanks,
(4) If one member of the household has a cold the others should
avoid too close contact such as kissing, Soft cheesecloth which may be
binnt should he used as handkerchiefs,
(5) Keep the feet dry.
(6) Have plenty of outdoor exercise.
The beat Protection against infection of the ears in children is ths.
• timely removal of adenoidg and tohsiis. It is astonishing how the croupy,
,aiwaye-with-a-cold child gets rid of these troublesome symptoms after lie
reotovel of adenoids and tonsils. If there' is earache get a con eetet.t
physteetii and have the ear drum given.a slit,!; This icto out the penned -';t e
secret toe and the only thing remaining is to keep thee -ter clean and dry f
a few deys,
Douches of the loose, forcible blowing of the nose while it is e1o,a;,;
held, and diving in the tank should he avoided,

Thousands of women right here in
Canada who are now blessed with robust
health cannot understand why thousands
of other women continue to worry and
suffer when they can obtain for a trifling
sunk Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription
which will surely and quickly banish all
pain, distress and misery and restore the
womanly health.
Young mothers who preserve the
charms of face and figure in spite of an
increasing family and the care of growing
children are always to be envied. "Favor-
ite Prescription" gives the strength and
health upon which happy motherhood
depends. It enables the mother to nour-
ish the infant life depending on her, and
enjoy the happiness of watching the de-
velopment of a perfectly healthy child.
