there is great irritation in the mouth and

the secretion OF saliva is increased, the child
is seized with frequent and sudden fits of
crying, waichings, starting in the sleep and
spasms of peculiar parts; :he child shrieks
with extreme violence, and thrus,s its tin
gers into it's mouth. If these precursory
symptoms are not speedily aiieviated, Spas

and soon cause the dissolution of the infant
