change has come about ince se we
have found that the University gradu-

the neWspaper worker who has not had

YOU SHOUL
BE AFRAID
OF A COUGH OR COLD.
Coughs and colds do not call for a
inute recital of symptoms as they are
well known to everyone, but their dangers
are not so well known. All the most
serious affections of the throat, the lunge
and the bronchial tubes are, in the be-
ginning, but coughs and colds
' . • .
Many people when they 6,ontract-.
aslight cold do not pay any attention
to it, thinking perhaps that it will pass
/away in a day or two. The upshot is
/that -before they Istow it, it has settled
on their lungs. .
Too much stress'eanaot be laid on the
faet that on the first sign of a cough or
cold it must be gotten rid of itnmediately,
as failure to do this may cause years of
suffering from serious lung trouble.
