Seventeen years ago, when Mrs.

in some way got glass bead about

a few days the bead gave her no

come out. Last week she gave a
violent sneeZe and felt something
come into her nos.ril. 1t was
taken out and there was the bead
that had gotten in there when she
was a child. The bead gave her no
pain when it came out and it is
strange to know how the bead
stayed there so long without giving
