parts were carefully washed with warn
milk and water three times q day, tilt
oil dressing renewed, and the little patien
rapidly recovered. Though all the sCald

see how any well founded objection can

knows that 1t Is no economy to have his

The Chairman of the Committee says the

lions of previous committees; that there is
much obscurity and uncertainty about
many of the entries, and still more about
matters OF which there Is no record ut oil;
and in short that the present financial
