TREATMENT OF TYPHOID FEVER
From H5 Toledo Blade.

Visiting last week at friends, CHANGED
to pick up the Blade, and read the inquiry
in the Household in regard to gaining
strength after having typhoid fever This
will depend much on the treatment while
having the fever. In the first place wish
to state a fact here for everybody to mark
down. No one can get absolutely well of
any kind Of malignant fever, without much
bathing, done in proper manner. l will
| give you my own experience. l nursed four
of my children through typhoid fever. We
were compelled to accept the services of a
| physician who did not believe in bathing
II % His last visit was made at ten
| o'clock at night. AS soon as he was gone,
my girl and brought in a large tub of tepid
water, and put them all through it--rubbing
them briskly; and the moment lifted them
out | threw around them q warm, dry
blanket, and putting my hand under, wiped
them dry, atid then slipped on their warm
night dresses (made of coarse muslin), and
oh how sweetly they slept-only OCCASION
ally asking for drink of water, which
gave them whenever they asked for it-cear
cold water-and as much as they wished:
Nature knows what she wants. Well, my
children were well three weeks ahead of
anybody else's. Il ~ They gather
ed strength rapidly, and no signs of any
boils or sores. One day the doctor came
running in, and said, "Mrs. W., there is
something which puzzles me in your chill
dren's case. When l began with them,
had no idea, with their frail constitutions
could bring them all through, but here they
are, all well, and soundly well. The fever
has not settled in limb or manned one of
them." l responded Doctor, know you
want the truth" Yes" said he, for Gods
sake let us have it; for Minnie B. is diving,
and ifany one can save her you can--I can
not" confessed ALL l bathed them, not
only at ten o'clock at night, but at ten in
the morning, when he went to the country,
While we were talking, Mrs. B. sent in haste
for me, saying her little girl was in spasms,
and was dying. She was their only child.
The doctor accompanied me. 0, you should
have seen that horrible black and parched
tongue, and that poor, fever eaten child,
clutching wildly at everything, to appre-
ciate what followed | The doctor said, al
have done everything can. The child is
dying. But want you should let Mrs. B.
give her a bath, 1t may relieve her in
death" We soon had the water ready. I
took her on my lap, and soothing her and
talking to her, 50 as not to frighten her,
commenced putting her feet in the water,
and gradually sliding her down in the water
up to her neck, and wetting her head with
my hand. You should have seen the calm
look of sweet content that came over her
face The spasm passed off while in the
water, and that was the last took 1ier in
hand, and by bathing the fever out, she
gradually grew strong and we'll. You can
cure a sick person by bathing him properly;
and you can kill well person by bathing
him improperly u
