How Diphtheria Is Contracted. One often hears the expression, "My child caught a severe cold which developed de-veloped into diphtheria," when the truth was that the cold had simply left the little one particularly susceptible sus-ceptible to the wandering diphtheria germ. If your child has a cold when diphtheria Is prevalent you should take him out of school and keep him off the street until fully recovered, as there is a hundred times more danger of his taking diphtheria when he has a cold. When Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is given it quickly cures the cold and lessens the danger of diphtheria diph-theria or any other germ disease being contracted.
