Charles C. Baker, the

something unforseen should ar

any machine of the kind. It is
impossible for me to express my
gratitude to all who rendered
me this valuable service, but I
think that is naturally under

During his last few days at the
hospital a large number of call

were Cardinal Gibbons and
Archbishop John J. Keane.

89 NEEDLES IN HER BODY.
Wilmington (Del.) Girl Proves
to be a Human Cushion.
Wilmington, Del., November
12. A young woman as a hu
man needle cushion is the re
markable case that is exciting
much interest among the physi
cians of this city.
About two months ago Han
nah Reardon came tu Wilming
ton from Ireland and secured a
position with the family of J
M. Mather, on Madison street
Several weeks ago she complain
ed of a sore finger, and Dr
dwitinn vnandier was summon
ed. To the surprise of the Doc
tor and the girl herself, he found
four whole needles in her finger.
He removed the needles, but the
pain continued, and subsequent
ly the Doctor removed five more
needles. The pain was not yet
allaved
j
In all thirty-nine needles
were removed from this finger,
and then the needles began to
come out all over the girl's body.
The physician continued opera
tions until eighty-nine needles
in all wTere removed from Han
nah Reardon's body. The X
ravs will be used this week to
see if any more can be found
rr a r . i n
twenty ot cue needles were
whole, but the others were brok-
en up. Dr. Chandler says he
does not know of a similar case
The girl is 19 years old,
weighs but eighty pounds, and
is four feet three inches tall. It
is believed that so manv need m

in her body stunted her growth
She said, in explanation, that
when a child her parents died,
and she was placed in a Roman
Catholic convent. Then the
younger girls were accustomed
to steal neeaies irom tne older
..a . 1 11 r . t , , I
ones, and to keep them irom oe-
ing discovered they would put
the needles
They often
in their mouths,
swallowed them.
The needles
are supposed to
have been
in the girl's bodv
since her school days.
Dr. Lhandler says that before
the girl came to this country
because of her delicate health,
she did but little work, but that
her household duties and her
stooping ana bending posture in
sweeping caused the needles to
slowly work toward the surface
oi her body. The operations
have made her ill.

News of a very
distressing
affair in Gulledge township
reacties us ii seems mat i
Sunday night Alec Short, a
young man about 21 years or age,
made an appointment with Miss
Rassie, the 19-year-old daughter
of Mr. C. M. Gaddy, to run away

upon and he explained to her

ed her as his wife. Early Mon
day morning Short deserted the
girl at McFarlan, going no one
knows where.
Mr. Gaddy, when he first diss
I 1 ll 1 fl.: Jni.rvllt
covered tne absence ui m uaugm

away to marry Short, and his
indignation and anger can be
imagined when he learned the
true state of the case. Tuesday
so enraged was he, that he sought
Short all day, with a double bar
rel shot gun, and had he found
him there would probably have
been a iob for the coroner.

last Friday morning when
George W. Kern, proprietor of
the Hotel Mecca, shot and in
stantly killed his wife aud him-.
self. The pair had not been liv

she hoarded a trolley car at 6
3 o clock this morning, to go to
.
her work, her husband followed
her and stood oa the rear Plat

When Mrs. Kernjobservea him
she ran screaming out of the
iront door of the ear and sought
the protection of about 200 wire
and mill employes, who had just
5nished work on the night shift.
Kern hastened after her and
twice pulled the trigger of the
pistol, but the weapon failed to
discharge.
The husband then dragged his
wife into his hotel and barricad
ing the door with a chair, in full
view of the crowd shot her dead.
He ran into another room and

His Life Was Saved.
Mr. J. E. Lilly, a prominent
citizen of Hannibal, Mo., lately
had a wonderful deliverance from
a frightful death. In telling of
it he says: "I was taken with
lypuoid Pever, that ran into
Pneumania. My lungs became
hardeued. I was so weak I
couldn't even sit up in bed.
Nothing helped me. I expected
to soon die of Consumption,
when I heaad of Dr. King's New
Discovery. One bottle gave great
relief. I continued to use it, and
now am well and stioug, I cau't
say too much in its praise."

You can make two very serious mistakes yon can
put price first in consideration, or you can let your
conuemence decide the question as to where you get
the seed upon which your crop depends
Don't make either of these mistakes, for they are
really inexcusable. Writing to us may be a little
trouble, but it s the sort of trouble that saves trouble
in tne long run; and saving in the cost of s.-eds is often
as everybody knows, the poorest kind of economy
You cannot afford not to have the best of eaaly peas
no matter if the cost is a little more, or if you have to
take a little trouble to gtt them.
Taifs Extra Early Nonpareil and Taifs Extra Early
Depot are the two best peas in cultivation. If you
think this statement too strong, too "store-talky "
ask the Experiment Station of your State what tlie
record of these peas has been in every competitive
