GUT WHRROM

piece of paper which had been lying
in the sick room of his wife during her
Illness and wrapped it around
the finger. Yesterday the finger
began to swell and became dis
colored and a physician was
summoned. An examination disclosed
the fact that Mr.. Lacey was suffering
from blood poisoning and as the swell
to the arm, it was found necessary to
perform a surgical operation in order to
save the arm if not the life of the pa
tient. Three doctors worked on the
case the greater part of last night and
several incisions were made and the
poisonous matter removed. Today
Mr.. Lacey's condition is quite favorable
and it is believed that the poison has
been completely eradicated.
1t is believed that the paper which
Mr.. Lacey wrapped around his finger
when he received the cut must have
become impregnated with poison from
the sick room and entered the system
through the cut on the finger. 1t is
certainly a peculiar case and fortunate
that the patient took prompt measures
to relieve the trouble. Mr.. Lacey was
under the care of the doctors this
morning and was unable to attend the
funeral of his late wife.
