A man without hair on any part OF
his body, who never had any teeth, who
is entirely destitute of the sense OF
smell, and whose taste is just fine
enough to defect piece Of limburger
cheese from a stone, was exhibited to the
physicians Of the Philadelphia County
Medical Society at its last meeting.
What is still more astounding about the
mai. and upsers all theories that have
been advanced by medical men, is that
the man has no pores III his skin. Here
totore it has been maintained that a
man could not live without a porous
skin but the most careful examination
under the microscope failed to reveal Il
single rore in the body Of the patient.
The man S name is Peter Vending.
He was born in Lebanon County, Pa,
forty. eight years ago, and is now living
in Bismarck, small village seven
miles south of Lebanon, with his wife
and eight children. The latter pirtAke
of none of their fathers pecullaritics
except that not child has IA perfect
set OF teeth Mr.. Vending expcrien-
ccs great Inconvenience from his III
ability to perspire. The body being
deprived of this means Of cooling be-
comes intensely hot, and it is necessary
to pour water over his clothing to keep
the man cool. In working with heavy
tools the man has to wear gloves TO get
firm hold. Mr.. Vending is the
youngest of twenty-onn children, and
with the exception Of the peculiarities
he has good health and has never been
sick.
