fortunately left on the chair served for MA

fortunately left on the chair served for
the mother to use in smothering the
fire. The apron and the dress of the
little one were completely burned up,
but the flannel underclothing had pro-
tected the BODY from injury. The right
arm and right side OF the face we're
badly burned and blistered, though the
injuries are only superficial. They are,
OF course, intensely painful, but not
enough surface is involved to render
them dangerous. Medical attention
was speedily summoned, and every eff
fort made to alleviate the pain, with
good success. She is doing very nicely
at present, and it is hoped that the face,
head and arm will not be permanently
Scared. 1t was narrow escape from
fatality.
