The vicissitudes necessarily Incl

frequent of all infantite diseases,
makes no exception to this rule; a
draft of cold air may reveal the latent
progress of the disorder, but its cause
is long confinement in vitiated and
overheated atmosphere, and its proper
remedy ventilation and a mild,

Buckwheat cakes are equal to pure

tain, and are superior to bread in fatty
matters. The general yield of buck

of the buckwheat, but cannot be
