TREATING rm: FEVERISII c1111.

One of the natural mistakes mothers make wiicii a youngner has a little rise in temperatuie is w glyg some fever red .cii~.g remedy. when. as ii matter of fact, the body's temperature has been raised in order to fight off the ailment o: infection. Of course. ii’ the temperature is unduly nigh, it should be redii mi.

Dr. Joseph K. Calvin, Chicago Medical Society Bulletin. states:- "1! the fever produces restles- ness. loss of appetite and other symptoms. or reaches I04 degrees Fahrenheit, measure." to reduce 1i. should be made. A rapid tub bath in lukewarm water is mirth ‘bell-El’ than sponging. with far less ex-

posure to the chiid_ Wet, tepid, flannel packs or jackets about the body, or wet sheet packs including l ann and legs are good fcvcr re- l, duvets. if kept wet with tepid or cool water. Such packs can be left on until the desired reduction ‘of temperature is obtained. If a con- vulsion occurs, rclnxniion can use- ually be secured In a tcpid. not hot. tub bath. followed by a wet pack and an ice bag to the head." There are two or three other sug- gestions bi‘ Dr. Cilvm that should prove of great lielp i0 mothers. worried about tlic voungstcrb fever.

First, the youngster should be kept in bed during the fever. There is nlivavs the chalice that some childhood infection is present arid the ynitivzstci-‘s heart reserve must be mriiiittiiiicrl.

As the youngster has lost his ap- petite starch footie that he likes and plenty of liquids should be given. Till‘ foods will keep iir his sti-cngih and the liquids will rid the system of onions and wastes by way of the kidneys.

“A daily movement oi the bowels is desirable and this can be accom- blisned by mild laxative such as milk or magnesia. an enema. or a suppositori‘. often depending on the mothers and the child's preference Seldom. if ever does a children's specialist use castor oil. calomel. or salts. Ari enema every other day during an acute illness is enough as there. is not. much waste to be removed.”

Those suggestions about treating the feverish child, by Dr Calvin can be readily followed by most mothers.

Eleven Precious Leaves

(London Times) The eleven leaves of an English eighth-century manuscript 0f the Bible. which it is hoped to acquire for tho British Museum, are for two reasons of special interest, to Engish scholarship. In the first place there is their textual value. They form. of course. a mere frag- ment, covering only parts of two Books of Kings, but the fragment, so far as it, noes. has equal au- thority with tho Codex Amiatlnus, the bcst extant manuscript of the
