removed from the leg.
DR.. Wood has q dim recollection. as

a tear in his pinafore. He recalls that
while mending the rent. his twin
brother attempted to take the needle
from him. Naturally, a scuffle ensued,
and DR.. Wood remembers we'll that
he got pricked with the needle in the

thing of the incident of his youth. and
never, until a few days ago, when the
swelling appeared, had he ever ex-
perienced any sensation OF pain as a
result Of the foreign substance.
For the most part the portion OF the
needle removed was not even rusty,
and half of the needle was almost as
bright as a new needle.
