SCIENCE ATTACKS • COLDS New Discovery that Kills Germs It is now known that the “ common cold ” —like its big brothers, Influenza and Catarrh —is caused by germs. You come into contact with a sufferer—germs enter your system through the breathing passages —the warm, moist conditions of the nose, throat and lungs provide ideal breeding grounds—the germs multiply rapidly—and you have “ caught a cold.” Obviously, then, the way to cure a cold is to kill the germs that cause the cold. Those are the lines along which chemists have been working for many years past. They have been striving to evolve an inhalant that is sufficiently powerful to destroy the germs and yet can be used with safety by adults or children. At last they have been successful. They have produced Karsote Inhalant. The actual germ-killing effect of Karsote on cold, influenza, and Catarrh-causing germs is shown in magnified diagram below. Fig. I.—Germs at commencement of attack. Fig. 2. —Showing large increase in number of germs after 24 hours. All that one has to do to use Karsote is ! to shake a few drops on to a handkerchief, ! and inhale the powerful germ-killing vapours. So the Karsote Inhalant treatment has the advantage that it may be used anywhere and at any time of the day —or during the night, since it can be sprinkled on the pillow and inhaled in the sleep. Karsote is obtainable of chemists and ■tores at 1/4 and 2/- per bottle. THE BROADWAY HEATER A SOUTHLAND INVENTION THAT WILL REVOLUTIONISE THE HEATING PROBLEM GUARANTEED TO SAVE 60 PER CENT.
