(From Cincinnati Gazette.)
Will people never learn that
a “cold” is an accident to be
dreaded, and that when it oc¬
curs treatmen should be prompt¬
ly applied? Tnere is no know¬
ing where the trouble will end;
and while complete recovery is
the rule, the exceptions are
terrible frequent, and thou¬
sands opon thousands of fatal
illnesses occur every year usher¬
ed in by a little injudicious ex¬
posure and seemingly ttifling
symytoms. Beyond this, there
are to-day countless invalids
who can trace their complaint
to “colds,” which at the time of
occurrence gave no concern, and
were therefore neglected.—
