Show A Button Threatens Death. Richmond, Mo., Juue 17. Frank Hill, the eight-year-old sou of Elijah Hill, a farmer living ten milos northwest north-west of this city, on Tuesday was playing play-ing around ttio house with other children chil-dren of the family, and coming across a largo horn overcoat button, placed itiu his mouth and soon swallowed it. Instead In-stead of passing dowu into the stomach the button lodged iu the pancreas, and so far has resisted all efforts of physicians physi-cians to dislodge it. The little fellow suffers intensely, aud his death is only a question of a short time, unless the button is removed. |
