a wretched plight with it, and although there
were many remedies tried, yet the malady
did not seem to decrease, indeed the disease
spread itself all over the surlace of the head,
lo the great annoyance of the parents and
discomfiture of the child. The blood of the
others was equally impure. At last the pa

they are certain of success. Their astonisl

In every case from whatevercause the ob
