Little Girl Badly Scalded By Falling Into Hot Water.

Helen, the 18 months old daughter of Recorder and Mrs. J. W. Tilton, was quite seriously scalded this Monday morning by falling into a pan of hot water. Mrs. Til ton had prepared water for scrubbing the floor and the pan containing it was on the floor. The baby was with the children in the yard and Mrs. Tilton stepped from the room. She ran into the kitchen and into the pan, upsetting it and her hands and arms were quite badly scalded. Immediate attention by the family doctor was given and while the little one will probably recover, she was very badly scalded.
