buI wrapped itself around his finger and
gave him sharp and painful sting. Al
though the wound was no larger than the
point Of needle could make, the top Of
the finger was badly swollen. AntidOies
were applied and tue young man sent TO
his home. The dead scorpion, which WAS
only about half grown, was placed In al
