If You are Subject to Colds
This Editorial will Interest You.
A Great Majority of People Get One or More Colds Every
Season and It is of Vital Interest to All to Learn How to
Avoid and Relieve Colds Quickly, Since Colds are Said to
be Contagions.
people think cold* are only caught through exposure. This in
contradicted by the fact that Arctic explorers are peculiarly free
----—It is more generally acoepted that colds are the result of civilized
life, due to super-heated rooms and a very rapid change in temperature which
saasu the nerve centers to be depressed, and still more largely due to con-
tagion—ene member of a family imparting a cold to another by sneezing or
soughing.
A cold moons nothing if relieved quickly. That such a purpose may be
accomplished, a quick aid to a cold is an essential. A remedy especially
devised to relieve colds quickly is PERUNA.
PERU HA contains such ingredients that have an especially beneficial in-
fluence upon the inflamed mucous membranes and the quicker these mucous
membranes are given the benefit of a remedy like PERUNA, the quicker the
relief and the less contagion.
A neglected cold may become a serious menace to one s own life, and far
worse, may endanger one’s family.
We insure our homes against fire, our lives against death. Why should
we not insure ourselves against colds if possible by having a medicine in the
family chest that can be used at once ?
PER US A is a reliable household remedy for colds and should be in every
home, for there should be a desire to combat a cold as quickly as possible.
This is enlightened hygiene.
_ People who are feeble and run down are more subject to oolds than per-
•am in normal health. Such persons need outdoor life and PERUNA to help
build np a strong constitution. If you have a poor appetite that is often a
waning that you probably need a tonic like Feruna for Peruna aids the
digwtive organs. When your appetite is fair and work and exercise do not
quickly tin you, your susceptibility to oolds diminishes very much.
