One day last week M. Badger cut a
slice from an apple and put it in his
mouth To test its quality by sucking the
juice. Without his consent the bit Of
apple slipped down his throat. When II
got to point where it would neither GO
lower or come upward he thought 1t time
to consult surgeon. A rapid drive from
Grand valley brought him to Or. r. NJ.
Pollock's Office and the work Of removal
was vigorously commenced. DR.. p. used
the proper instrument to punch the apple
downward, but MIR. Badgers throat being
unused to the presence Of such foreign
substances he thought that the doctor
had made mistake in picking up the in
strument and was operating with full
grown crowbar. But in very brief time
Mr.. Badger was relieved Of all inconyen-
ience.
