The remedy is very simple; it consists in puttingthc sick porsou into a warm bath- of very salt water. Uodicsalready much discoloureil, have been left three hours in a bath of that kind kept constantly very warm; the progress to a return to life was very astonishing, tho color cli inging every half hour till they had resumed their former whiteness-. The physician can easily judge of the length of time the both is required. The causes of tho change are these.- Warmth open tho pores of the skin as the salt has the poperty of liquifying the ccgulated blood, it causes the blood congealed in the veins to resume its ordinary course towards the heart, and prevents death."
