CATCHING A COLD' by AMOS RUSSEL WELLS

First Line: WHETHER A COLD CAN BE READILY CAUGHT
Last Line: Lo! you will catch it with ease, **while you wait”
Subject(s): COMMON COLD;

Whether a cold can be readily caught
Depends on thr manner in which it Is sought.
Run for it. hard, till you waver and tire.
You'll never catch It. howe'er you perspire.
Ah. but sit down in that pitiful state. ''"
Lo! you will catch it with ease, "while you wait.''
