IF YOU HAVE A COLD . . . here are two things to remember: (1) Keep away from other people as much as possible. (2) Always cover the mouth and nose Avhen coughing and sneezing. You can only dodge colds by keeping away from those who have colds. Colds are spread by a highly infectious virus. Every unguarded cough or sneeze sprays the air with thousands of these germs. They may be ejected as far as 12ft. in a hearty sneeze. The cold virus can pave rhe way for secondary infection that is its danger. Your “harmless” is a step toward influenza, bronchitis, pneumonia. You can’t afford to ignore a cold, however slight. The foregoing information is issued by the Department of Health and is in line with propaganda issued by the British Ministry of Information. The proprietors of Baxters Lung Preserver are pleased to assist in spreading this propaganda in the interests of national health. “Baxters” is N.Z.’s proved most popular remedy for 80 years.
