SCIENCE ATTACKS COLDS New Discovery that Kills Germs It Is now known that the u common cold ’’—like Its big brothers, Influenza and Catarrh —is caused by germs. Yon come into oont&ct 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 ohemists 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-cansing germs is shown in magnified diagram below. f; m Fig. 1. —Germs at commencement of attack. Fig. 2. —Showing large increase in number of germs after 24 hours. Fig. 8. —Less than 10 minutes' exposure to Karsote vapour has entirely killed the germs. 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 now obtainable of most chemists snd stores, at 1/6 and 2/3 per bottle. i
