Monday, November 30 334 DAYS PAST — 31 TO COME “Colds,” Contagion and Fresh Air. Acute rhinitis is, in my opinion, a contagious disease, communicable from one person to another. Since it may be such a serious and dangerous disease in infancy, babies should be kept away from adults, and older children suffering from “colds” almost as carefully as from those with the eruptive diseases. Fresh air, either in the house or out of doors, does not cause rhinitis, but is, next to the avoidance of exposure to other cases, the best preventive.—Dr. John Lovett Morse; Detroit Medical Journal. Weather Rained and winded all day. Temp. I stayed all day with Jessie and Carrie home, with the girls when they came from school. They brought home a can of coal oil. Mrs. Marchant is a little better tonight. Billy - ½
