In 1676, the British journal “Physick and Astrology” suggested a remedy syrup made of garlic and brown sugar. Purges, hot baths, cold baths, alcoholic beverages, snuff, quinine, sun lamps and even the wearing ox red unaerwear nave au oeen sug- - gested to the despairing sniveler. Many of these have looked good when first tried. The reason is the fact that a sizeable percentage of colds clear up within 24 hours without ever coming to full bloom. Laboratories are now spending large sums on research in the com mon cold because while the infec tion is usually minor, its economic cost is tremendous. At least 100 million workdays a year are lost through colds in the United States. The virus that causes all the trouble has not been seen to this day, even under the electron micro scope. Through a filtering tech nique, Dr. Christopher H. Andrewes of England, the world’s foremost cold expert, has meas ured its size: it is smaller than the influenza virus, but larger than the polio virus and has a diameter of about two millionths of an inch. Most of what we know atxrat the coid comes from the famous re search project of Dr. Andrewes at Salisbury in England. The Salis bury researchers have found that colds are probably spread mainly by direct person-to-person contact and by droplets of infected nasal discharge. Cold sufferers are in fectious and may spread the virua in the first 24 hours before their first symptoms appear. While recent advances in virol ogy research give promise of find ing a cure for the cold some day, genuine progress is being made in1 controlling the complications of! colds and in easing discomfort, j For example, research scientists of! Chas. Pfizer & Co. rtcently devel oped a unique nasal decongestant named Tyzine. According to physi . cians’ reports, it is the first that is both highly efficient in clearing stuffy noses and free of the nn- i desired side effects that have made other, nasal decongestant* difficult, tr. use. Based on a new synthetic chemical, it combines quick with long action. More good news in cold research will be warmly welcomed by tfc© 20 million people who any day this winter you’ll find suffering from that great unsolved qiysteay, the common coid. -Salem, N.
