Mrs. James Morley met with quite a painful accident last week. As she was preparing to retire for the night she stepped on a needle which buried itself in her foot so that all that conld {sp} be seen protruding was the thread attached to the eye. An attempt was made to pull it out by the thread, which proved futile. Dr. Meckstroth was called and found it necessary to use the ex-rays {sp} in order to locate the direction the needle had taken, when the needle was removed, but not however, until a deep incision was made with a knife.
