with her face as clear and spotless as be-
fore her terrible experience of two wee KS
ago, Alice Smith lies at the Grady hospital
at Atlanta awaiting a final examination of
one Of her eyes before being discharged.
She will probably leave the hospital on
Monday entirely cured Of the terrible ef-
tects OF the acid. The girls complete re-
covery is remarkable. From her contne-
Inoap III tne nOsplUal ueT case became graz
uallY more hopeful, and with the careful
attention given her by the house physicians
and by Dr. Calhoun it was thought that she
would suffer but little permanent results
from the acid. But at no time was it
thought that the girl would leave the hos
pital without bearing some lasting
marks Of her cousins attack. Fri
day, however, such was discovered
to be the case. Her eyes are 10 no
way injured and her complexion is fair
without single scar to mar it any way. If
anything, she looks better than ever, and
her former pretty looks have returned. The
case is Of such a nature that the physician
are looking into the charge that vitrlol was
thrown. II the acid was vitriol it was
greatly diluted. The whole affair has
taken suoh turn as to almost corroborate
Mrs. Olives story that the liquid was used
by her as corn medicine. and that she had
purchased it. not as vitriol or sulDhuric
acid, but according to prescription. The
girl ID visited daily by her hunchback
mother, who cried with joy when told that
her daughter was all right again. The
feeling against Mrs Olive has to a great ex-
tent subsidized, and Alice Smith 10 no longer
so anxious for her prosecution.
