renders great public service
study of the “common cold.
It is found to be due to a germ
or “virus” so small that the micro-
scope cannot detect it, and no filter
stop its e. It has been
impossible thus far to manufacture
a serum to develop immunity in
human beings. Such a serum would
be next in value to small pox “c-
cination. The ‘common cold,” us-
ually neglected, lays the founda-
“ion for diseases that cause death.
Almost every one of us at some |
time has suffered from a cold. Some
of us sre rarely free from colds, I
can think of no minor ailment that |
causes so much discomfort.
Colds as a rule are caused by
“catching” the germ from a person
already having a cough or a cold.
The borrowed germ settles in a
weakened area, such as the tonsils,
throat, nasal passages, mouth or
nasal sinuses. Pretty soon the
trouble begins,
The popular belief is that colds
are caused by drafts. A cold is a
disease of germ origin. Exposure
to drafts, the presence of germs and
lowered resistance of the body—all
these combined will lead to a cold.
Extreme fatigue predisposes to a
cold. When we are unduly tired the
body resistance is lowered, and then
we are more susceptible to infection
by the germs or bacteria always
afloat in the air.
Most people try to “doctor” their
own colds. They have some special
tablet or gargle that some one has
told them about. They have faith
in these, but alas! drugs do not
cure a cold.
They may relieve the symptoms
and perhaps shorten the duration of
the ailment, but they never cure.
Quack reemdies and “catarrh cures”
should be avoided, They are rarely
beneficial and too often dangerous.
The taking of whiskey and heavy
doses of quinine is a common prac-
tice which is not to be advised in’
the treatment of a cold.
The first thing to do when you
have a cold is to take your temper-
ature. If it is over 99 degrees go
to bed, If you are mserably ill it
is advisable to call your physician.
Treatment of a cold by a physi-
cian lessens the discomfort, shortens
its duration and decreases the dan-
er of complications. This is done
y the application of remedies that
are demanded by your individual
condition. There is no universal and
ready made cure.
As a matter of fact there is very
little that can be done except to
stay in bed. Eat lightly and drink
at least one glass of water every
hour. If you do not remain in bed
it is best to stay indoors. The room
shuld be kept free from draft, but
it must be thoroughly ventilated.
The whole body should be kept
warm, particularly the feet. This is
one reason why it is wise to stay
in bed. Most persons dread the
thought of remaining home and
away from their work merely be-
cause of a cold.
But one day in bed will often
cure a cold completely. Neglect of
this precaution may lead to the loss
of several days from work.
The common belief that one should
“stuff a cold and starve a fever”
has misled many ple, This state-
ment if followed will probably lead
to a temperature and not cure a
cold.
Foods should be simple and nutri-
tious, confined largely to fruits,
vegetables and salads.
There are many advertised reme-
dies. Some of them are harmless
enough and perhaps do decrease the
misery of a cold. I shall not ven-
ture to speak of them, because I
firmly believe drugs should not be
prescribed except by a physician
who has perosnal knowiedge of the
condition.
Heartburn Caused by Unwise Eat-
ing.—You know lots of friends who
are never without what is called
“acid stomach,” or “heartburn.” It
is one of the most common of ail-

THE CHERNIAVSKY TRIO
AT STATE MONDAY NIGHT.
The second number in the artists
course concerts that are being pre-
sented by the department of music
at the Pennsylvania State College is
scheduled for next Monday night,
January 12,
The Cherniavsky Trio is the of-
fering. These three brothers, Leo,
violinist; Mischel, ‘cellist, and Jan,
pianist, have won immense success
in their tours of the United States,
partly because of their outstanding
ability both as soloists and in com-
bination, and partly because they
have eliminated all the dryness
which has been traditionally as-
sociated with chamber music. Their
performance is sparkling with vitali-
ty and inevitably creates an en-
thusiastic response on the part of
listeners. Each of these three ex-
ceptional artists appears in solo
numbers as well as trios.
The concert will be given
