WHAT IS A COLD. It is now generally conceded that the distressing comiplaini known as a cold is due to the presence of a specific microorganism. The.s-9 organisms are always; in the air wherever there is a. concourse of human beings. In the purer air, on mountains and at sea, they are either absent or rare. None of Nansea's people suffered from a cold during their prolonged stay in the, Arctic regions. There is am island off the coast of Scotland which is but rarely visited, and its people never have colds, except when a ship is in port, and then they are highly subject to them. • Inhabitants of more thickly populated areas probably become more or less immune from attack,* but exposure to cold and damp lowers vitality, and gives the microbes their opportunity. The first symptom of a coM is a feverish condition. The' -pores- become contracted, and the skin cannot do its work of removing waste products of the body b^ perspiration. In .consequence, the kidneys are compelled to come to the assistance of the skin, and do a double shsre of work. This is demonstrated by the visible presence 01 earthly salts in the. urine just as soon as a cold is" contracted. The burden, thus thrown upon the kidneys is- often more than they can sustain. This is a source of very great danger; in fact, nothing is more dangerous.There is a'medicine, known as Warners Safe Cure,which .possesses a remarkably specific action upon the kidneys, stimulating them, and enabling them to beat- the increased strain thus placed upon them. Persons suffering from cold cannot do better than take a course of Warners, feafe Cure, as any break-down of the kidneys, or their incapacity to- remove the wnste products of the body, will result -.n Rheumatism, Gout, Indigestion, Blood Disorders. Gravel. Debility, or. perhaps. Bright s Uiseas" Even when any of these disorders are contracted, so potent is the action of Warner's Safe Cure that it will effect a speedy and permanent cure.
