Physicians advise that the chief danger in this epidemic
ill AFTER Influenza Then, more than ever, colda attacking
the weakened system may lead to bronchitis,
pneumonia, sinus trouble, abscess of the ear, mastoiditis,
or even the dread meningitis This is especially true of
children.or old folks.
AT FIRST. SIGN OF A COLD?Put some Vicks up
each nostril and snuff well back. At bedtime, apply hot
wet towels over throat and chest until the skin'is thoroughly
reddened Then rub vigorously with Vicks. Spread
it on thickly and cover with warm flannel.,
Vicks acts 2 ways at once (absorbed and inhaled) and
often checks a cold overnight. If by morning the cold
still lingers, stay in bed and repeat the treatment every.
4 hours.
AVOID TOO MUCH DOSING?A peculiarity of influenza
is that its toxins leave the digestive system upset.
Constant "dosing," especially in the case of children,
still further disturbs the digestion and lessens the appe_
tite, just when the body needs nourishment more than
ever
Vicks VnpoRub is especially valuable here because it
is applied externally, and so can be used freely at the
first sign of every cold, without upsetting the most delicate
digestion.
