The Abbeville press and banner. [volume] (Abbeville, S.C.) 1869-1924, 1876-09-20

It is as unnecessary for a child to die
with the scarlet fever as it is that it
should be blind with cataract. I'm.
dress the child and bring it to bed at
the very first sign of the sickness.
Give it, if it has already fever, moth
ing but warm, sourish lemonade, with
some gum arabic i'll it. Then cover its
abdoment with some dry flannel.
Take o well-folded bed-sheet aud put
it in boiling water, wiring 1t out dry
by means OF dry towels, and put this
over the flannel on the abdomen.
Then cover the whole, and wait. The
hot cloths will, perhaps, require re-
peated heat. Accordingly to the sew
Gritty of the case and it's stage of pro-
gress, Precipitation will commence In
the child from ten to two hours. The
child is then saved it soons falls
asleep. Soon after the child awakes,
it shows slight symptoms Of return
ing inclination for food help Its bow
els, if necessary, with injections OF
oil, soap and water, and its recovery
will be as steady as the growth Of a
greenhouse plant, If well treated.
Or course, If the child was already dy-
ing, nothing could save 1t, or If it has
illusions in the lining of the heart or
brain !; it is much better that it should
die. But if the above is applied in
due time, under the care and direction
of a competent physician, I will CUR
antee that not one in a hundred chill
dren will ever die with the scarlet fe-
yer. l know this will startle some of
my readers, especially those who have
lost children already but I shall go
still further. l maintain that a child
will never get scarlet fever if properly
treated. If a child has correctly mix
ed blood, it will not catch the disorder
if put in bed with a sick child. This
is still more startling, but nothing is
easier of proof.

Death of an EstimabIe Lady.

Mrs. Francis G. Conner. wife of Mr..
F. A. Conner, Of Cokesbury, was the
second daughter of the late Gen. G.
w. Hodges, and the first of that large
and influential family to assume the
VOWS Of the christian religion. When
a little girl, only ten years old, she felt
the drawings of the spirit of God upon
her heart. She met with no encour-
agement from her parents, however,
either by precept or example, but not
withstanding this she yielded to the
sweet attractions Of the cross, and
made All open profession, of the Sa-

to attend a meeting then in progress
and at which he was brought to feel

Yesterday morning at 8 o'clock after a
protracted illness she quietly fell asleep
in Jesus in the 55th year of her age.
Today a large and sympathizing audi
ence attended her funeral service at

children. Il. D.. 5.
