In the American Medical Gazette, DR.. Reese
thus earnestly reiterstes his advice to apply
flour to scalds and burns: ssWe still see reported
almost daily, an appalling number of deaths
by burns and scalds, not one of which, we take
upon ourselves to say, need prove fatal, or would
do so, if few pounds Of wheat -four could be
promptly applied to the wounds made by IRE,
and repeated until the inflammatory stage had
passed. We have not known fatal case of
scalding or burning in which this practice has
been pursued, during more than thirty years
experience, and have treated hundreds in both
public and private practice. We have known
the most extensive burns by falling into cauld-
rons Of boiling OIL and even molten copper, and
yet the patient was rescued by this simple and
cheap remedy, which, from its infallible sue
cess should supplsnt all the fashionable nos
trums, whether oil, cotton, leadwater, ice, tur-
pentine, or pain extractors, every one of which
has been tried Thousand times with fatal re-
suits, and the victims have died in excruciating
agony, when few handfulls Of -four would
have calmed them to sleep, and rescued them
from pain and death. Humanity should prompt
the profession to publish and republish the facts
on this subject, which are established by the
authority Of standard medical works on both
sides of the Atlantic.
