COMMONSENSE ADVICE. Habitual colds are due to an ill-kept skin on the outside, and by dyspeptic mucous membrane on the inside, the result of indigestion, coupled with carelessness. Cold water, proper food, and commonsense are the foundations upon which a preventive must rest. A cold sponge bath, one to three minutes long, before breakfast, with a brisk, dry rub, is excellent—usually all that is necessary to keep the cutaneous circulation alive, and the skin reactive to sudden changes of temperature.V For those unaccustomed to cold water, toldrance can be gained in three weeks' time by the use of water at any comfortable temperature, making it one degree colder each day, until it can be employed, without dread, as cold as it will run. Sea salt may be added to the water for its stimulating effect. Cold water, intelligently used, does not steal vitality, but fosters it. It stimulates the nerves that control the expansion and contraction of the blood vessels, and regulates the cutaneous circulation. One should "keep moving" when wet or chilly, and not stand on a street corner or elsewhere without taking deep breath. The lungs used in this way act as a pump, and drive the blood along. This practice, with the others named, will reduce to a shadow the liability of taking cold every little while. If you should contract a cold, get rid of it as quickly as possible, for every cold weakens the lungs, lowers the vitality, and paves the way for more serious diseases. This is beat'*' accomplished by the use of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, a preparation that can always be depended upon and that not only cures the cold, but counteracts any tendency toward pneumonia.

AND DANGERS THAT THREATEN. The worst danger to which the children of Australia are exposed is the neglected cold. • If your baby has a cold, don't say, "It will wear off," and let it go at that. If your children have the snuffles, or sore throats, or watery eyes, don't hesitate to take them from school for a day or two so that you may break up the colds they have. Every parent can add to the healthy condition of the 'family and to his or her own peace of mind by guarding against any and every kind of cold. Generally, the child does not know how it caught cold. It may be impossible to prevent it exposing its sensitive body to those dangers which older persons shun. But the chances of contracting colds can be easily diminished by a little care and forethought. If the children get colds, don't waste any time. Don't trifle with a cold. This warning should be heeded by all. The lives of many children are sacrificed each year by neglecting the colds which they take ; others contract chronic catarrh, from which they never fully recover. Of ail the cough mixtures sold, Chamberlain's Cough Remedy certainly heads the list as the most efficacious for colds, croup, and whooping cough in children, and the one remedy that can always be depended upon to effect a speedy cure, and that is pleasant and safe to take. This remedy contains no ' opium or other harmful drug, and may ' be given as confidently to a baby as ' to an adult. Its great worth and merit in the treatment of these diseases has been attested by many thousands of mothers. CHAMBERLAIN'S COUGH REMEDY,} told everywhere 1/6. 1 1
