4 screw in His Nose for Two Years.

A little son of Mr.. Michael, of
Blacksmith, this county, has been
complaining for two years of pain
in his nose. The matter did not seem
to be serious, however, and very lit
tie attention was paid to it. One
day last week Dr. Fletcher's atten.'
ton was called to the fact, and after
careful examination he discovered
that some foreign particlewas lodged
in the boys nostrils. Further oper-
alton succeeded in removing a com
mon in. screw which, no doubt, had
caused the trouble during the two
long wears.
