Suggestion For Care
Of Common Cold
The weather is cold and raw in most of the nation at this season of the year, and most of us sometime or other this winter will have a cold in the head.
And lots of us will spend money for pills and other nostrums to, “cure” our colds. This money, almost exery bit of it, will be wasted. We’ll still have a cold until the body’s protective mechanisms take over and the cold bugs simmer down to managable numbers.
