Oil Rub for Children’s Colds

When a child has taken cold it is a good plan to spend five or ten minutes two or three times a day in rubbing into the whole breast, with a soft, warm hand, about ten drops of common sweet-oil. Dr. Hall thinks if such a course were promptly taken the moment a child is observed not to be as well as usual, nine-tenths of the ailments of children would be averted. It has a powerful influence in helping nature to cure the very worst forms of diseases to which childhood is liable.
