Little Charlie Warwick. aged three
years, son of Mr.. and Mrs. Charles
Warwick of this place, is convalescing
from an attack of traumatic tefanus or
lockjaw. The little fellow for more
! than week was unable to take nour-
ishment and his condition was regarded
by his physician as extremely grave.
| His trouble dates back to more than a
month ago when one day while playing
in the yard he fell and ran a splinter in
his arm, which festered and few days
after was extracted by his mother.
| The wound healed in short time and
as no unusual symptoms occurred the
circumstances were almost forgotten
until ten days ago when he was seized
with commissions and his jaws became
/ locked. The spasms were horrible to
witness. Every muscle in the body
rigid and drawn into knots. During
the commissions his tongue on several
occasions was caught between his teeth
and bitten so severly that the blood ran
out Of his mouth. On the third day
there was a slight relaxation of the
seizures and piece of wood was in
PRODUCED between his jaws and further
injury to the tongue prevented. This
piece of wood he carried between his
teeth day and night until the improve
ment in his condition justified its re-
moval. He is now doing nicely and is
able to take liquid nourishment. No
commissions have occurred since Sunday.
