The Scarlet FeYer.

1t is as unnecessary for o child TO die
of scarlet fever. says Gyod Heattis, as il is
that it should be blind, with cataract.
Let us see: Al any time before the bndy
has finished it's Intellectual struggle we
ara able to help j., nat by syAndesf..l
medicines. but by the knowledge of ana,-
oiny and the application of common
sense. We consult the sympathetic
nerve, and do what it commands us TO do.
We must give this child rat when it
wnnts il; we must give it acid when il
has fever--not vinegar, but lemon juice,
because the first coagulates albumen, and
the latter does nat Oh account nf the sur
plus Of oxygen which it! contains. To
initiate the soothing mucous in the in
testineS, which Is now wanting. and to
give some respiratory food at the same
time we add gum. arabic. To restore aud
relieve the injured nerve we apply nn,ist
warmth. In practice I'VE can fulfill al
this with the following simple ,nnnipuIa-
tinns: Undress the c!,..d and bring it
to bed at the first sign of sicknens. Give
il, if it has already fever, nothing but
warm, snurish Lemonade, with x0ne gum
arabic in IL. Then cover ita abdomen
with some dry flannel. Take we'll
folded bed.sheet and put it in boiling
hot water; wiring i, out dry by means of
dry towels. and put this over the flannel
on the cbild's abdomen. Then cover tn.
whole and wait. The hot cloths will
perhaps require repeated heating. Ac-
c.rding to the severity oi the case and its
stage Of progress. perSpiration will cnln-
mencc in the child from ten minutes to
two hours. The child then iisaved it
soon falls to sleep. Soon after the child
awakea it show slight symptoms of re.
turning in ination for funl helr its
bowels, if necessary, with injections ni
oil, soap. and water, and it's recovery will
be As steady rs the grnwth uf u green
house plant, if well treated. OF course,
il the child WAS a!ready dying nnthing
could save it. or if it has efTusion in the
lining of the heart or brain it is much
better it should die. But If the abuve is
applied under the eyes and direction u.
Il competent physiciun, will guarantee
That ~, one in hundred will ever die
"f scarlet fever. ! knnw this will startle
some of my readers. especially tl,nse who
have lnst children already, but shall go
still further. I maintain that q child
will never get scarlet fever if properly
treated. If child has correctly mixed
blood, it vii! not catch the disorder il
put in he'd with sick Child. This in
still more startling, but nothing is easier
of proof.

Let him continue this practice. His old

rarely surpassed. Sympathy is q Won

this lnchrymal tribute-we mingle our

The general public will not be sur

The NEXT CoNGREss.-There will be
sery little difference in the strength oi
the parties in the next Congress-, and
party lines hate TO be drawn very closely
in uTlrr IL prevent the house from re.
lapsing into Republication and to keep
tie Senate from becoming Democratic.
The Democratic majority in the House,
should the New Hampshire elections 90
against us and the Returning Board
frauds i'll Louisiana aud South Carolina
stand, will mt he more than e,x er seven
votes. The detection of four men, or the
sickness or absence of seven, would make
the body Republican. 1t will be absu.
lntely necessary fer every Democratic
member to remain at his pnst during the
whole session, or the most mischievuus
consequences may flow from his absence
Judging from the votes of tue present

LONDON, Jan. 15.-The Vienna
correspondent of the Times says
advices received there confirm the
impression that the Porte will, at
the very last moment, accept the
compromise offered by the powers.
The compromise will probably
prove to be that the Porte be asked
to accept the programme. not as un-
alterable, but only as sort of basis
for discussion.
The Indian Office publishes dis
patch dated Jan. LIST from Lord Car
narvon, acting Under Secretary in
the absence, of Lord Salisbury, to
Lord Lytton, Governor General of
India. It requests that a weekly
sum may be henceforh sent by tele-
graph, giving the main features in
regard to the famine. Lord Carn-
arvon, summing up the information
he had hitherto received, considers
it alarming, and says that $40, 900
persons are already employed on the
relief works in Madras and $50, 900
in the Bombay provinces. More
estimates show that the famine in
Bombay will gradually increase,
reaching the maximum in April,
when q million persons will require
relief; after which it will gradually
decrese. In Madras the prospect is
proportionately worse. The districts
affected in Madras cover eighty
thousand square miles and contain a
.pultion Of eighteen millions. In
Bombay the famine-stricken terri
tory covers $4,000 square miles
and has population of eight mil
lion, five millions of whom are in
distress and more Immediately af-
