CAREFULLY TREAT CHILDREN’S COLDS Negiect of children's colds often • lays the foundation of serious lung , trouble in later life. On the other { hand, it is harmful to continually ' dose delicate little stomachs with in ternal medicines or to keep the chil- < dren always indoors. The ideal way • to avoid colds is to keep plenty of fresh air in the bedroom and at the e hrst sign of trouble apply Vick's “Vap-O-Rub” Croup and Pneumonia Salve over the throat and chest, cov ering with a warm flannel cloth. The body heat releases antiseptic { vapors that are inhaled all night long, opening the air passages and healing the inflamed membrane. In addition Vick’s Is absorbed through the skin, taking out the soreness and tightness. Vick’s contains no harmful drugs whatever. At drug gists’—25c, 60c and $1.00. TD(iere come From?
