Barton, mail contractor Vl between this place and Paragonah, iJ residing at tho latter place, is about El the best pleased man we have seen CtH in a long time.. A few days , nccw- , , LH tune to svwniow a nicklo, nnd since IH that time hus been unable to swallow rl anything but liquid foods, and has ' Kuffcred a great deal of pain nnd mis- j- cry. Ho has been under tho care of "H a physician in the northorn end of the , M county, who was unable to locate the ' H iseat of the trouble. H As he did not seem to be making sat- - isfuctory progress, however, ho was H brought to Cedar City yesterday and H Dr. Leonard took an X-ray picture of -H his throat and chest, showing very H clearly the nicklo well down in the H esophagus. The child was then put H on tho operating table and after a gen- H oral anaesthetic the coin was success- . fully dislodged and pushed on into - ' jH tho stomach. The child can now cat H well, and there Is little doubt of its ,H speedy recovery. Mr. Barton is very Jl thankful, indeed, that thcro is such an H apparatus as the X-ray machino now H In the county, us it clearly saved him H hundreds of dollars and no end of , H inconvenience in tills instance.
