MUFfING Tim TlOA+.-Wat j
the best mode of protecting the
throat from colds where a person is
very susceptible to then ? Tho cnm
mon way of protecting the throat is
to bundle and wrap it up closely,
thus ovefteatipp a11 rendering it ten
der and moie liable to colds ami in
flatniiton than before. This practi6e
is all wrong, and results in antich evil.
Especially is this the casoe with Chil
dren, and whean in !aadi-ioa to the
muin.ng of tie throat the extr:emiti<
are insuiflioientlY clad, as i.- often ilo
0,as, tile bot pos.sible ndiion z are
presented for the prtod-ticn i: af ae
throats, coughs, Crolp, and all sorts of
throat and lung avaet ions.
It is wronag to excIioil col air from
the neck. and if it i, overheated a por.
tion of the time, when it i, expo'ed
soie form of disarrangenient of the
throat will be apt to occur. The rult)
in regard to dlothing the neck should
be to keep it as coel as confirt will
tllow. In doing so you will suffer
mIuch less from throat ainIaents than if
you are always fearful of having a lit
tio cold air come in contact. with ld
neck. Any one wh'lto la.is been accus
tomed to have his throat iufiled
should b. careful to loave off gradl
ly, and iot all at once.-/ era/d of
