Some of the text in this Vintage Ad:
An old-timer reminder for today’s winter health . . .
Back in grandma’s time . . . before modem heating . . .
the change to long, fleecy underwear was a wise precaution
against winter ills. If a cold did start coming on, grandma
insisted on another ritual . . . a hot bath, a daub of ointment
on the chest and a quick retreat to a warm feather bed.
Today, as in grandma's time, it is not wise to make too
light of a cold. What seems to be only a slight cold may
be the beginning of pneumonia and other respiratory ailments.
So, even if you don't feel ..really sick" with a cold,
authorities urge you to do these things:
I. Rest more than usual . . . eat lightly . . . drink plenty
of water and fruit juices. 2. Be sure to check your temperature
. . . and if you have even a degree or so of fever,
go to bed. If fever persists, call your doctor.
Fever is important because it may indicate trouble of a
more serious nature . . . sinusitis, ear infections, bronchitis
and pneumonia . . . to mention a few. When these and
other common ailments of the winter season are promptly
treated, the chances for rapid recovery are good-thanks
largely to the effectiveness of the antibiotic drugs.
Even though medical science can now bring about more
and quicker recoveries from the major winter ailments, it
is wise to take every precaution against catching a cold.
Here are some measures which may help:
I. Guard against drafts and chilling . . . and always
wear clothing suited to weather conditions.
2. Get enough sleep and eat well-balanced meals to
help keep resistance built up during the cold months.
3. Whenever possible avoid exposure to those who have
respiratory illnesses.
4. If you have frequent colds, or if you are generally
•`run down," ask your doctor about preventive measures
against respiratory infections.
REMEMBER, too, what seems to be a cold in a
child often turns out to be the beginning of measles,
whooping cough or some other communicable disease. So,
it is always wise to keep a child with a cold at home to
protect others as well as himself. The communicable diseases
are most contagious in this early stage.
Metropolitan’s new booklet, ‘Respiratory Diseases’, gives
additional information to help improve winter health.
