nosed by Means of the Y Rays.

A very interesting discovery has been made
by means OF the X-rays in this city. A
woman well known in social circles in ST.
Paul was sent TO this city by her family ply
sician in St. Paul to have a picture Of her
hip taken by means Of Dr. Cross X-raY ap-
paratus. She suffered much pain in her hip
and supposed, as did her physician, that the
joint was diseased. A picture was take2
and when It was developed the first and
plainest object to be seen was a. darning
needle imbedded in the flesh near the bone.
it was one of the clearest diagnoses by
means Of the X-ray ever seen. and demon
strated beyond doubt that the needle has been
the cause Of all her sufferings.
. When Is years of age she lost a darning
needle, which she carried in a work bag sus-
pended from her belt. No trace of the needle
could be found, though at the time small
scratch was noticed above the knee The in
cident passed entirely out of her mind until
the .lost needle was revealed in the photo
