Poker Removed From Her Forehead and Girl Lives SLOUGH, ENGLAND.---The life of a seven-year-old girl who had a poker deeply imbedded in her forehead has been saved by miracle surgery. The child, Audrey Waggott, was taken to a hospital with a poker buried 1% inches in her forehead. She was conscious, and did no^ appear to be much in pain. ' Doctors despaired of saving her life when she was ruahed to the operating room. Dr. Nathaniel Mnier, who has made a close study of the brain, was called in; aopd he declared that it was ikqiMAilble to remove tlfb poker, i With infinite care Dr. Miller jwd another surgeon worked rewind Finally they were able to take it away altogether without injuring the Audrey is apparently little worse far her injuries, and it is believed unlikely that she will be permanently affected. _ each of theae fto miUiotis. of- dMIifri tave b«i& iaviahed a«uip(njent.
