Neatly half the people juu meet have already had at least one cold this fall and win ter. Others will soon follow . But what can the unfortu nate victim do about it? That is the question There is no rovnl road to re- eovery, but here are some "first aid" suggestion that will usual- y help a int. First of all, don't let your cold ''get the jump on you."

Next, ta:.e a good, hot foot bath. Soak the f'et t and legs nearly up to the knees in water as hot as can be h ,ne for twenty to thirty min utes. Do this in a warm room. In the meantime, keep well wrap- ped in warm blankets. Two or three glasses of hot lemonade should also be drunk, and the pat. ient placed in a warm bed in an airy room for at least a day, but in no way exposed to drafts. One or two meals should be skipped : and the diet made to consist ! largely of fruits and vegetables. ' Avoid whiskey, heavy doses of 'quinine and patent medicines. ;They usually contain coal tar pro '. ducts, and the body has trouble ' enough at such a time without adding these. Finally, while taking the cold treatment is one ot the best times to make deep-seated reso lutions to avoid such things in the future ly proper living.
