A Remarkable Throat.

There is q woman living in Vienna
with most remarkable throat. You
can pass probes to all parts of both her
throat and larynx without causing any
spasms of the muscles, what in ordinary
language is called gagging. You can
place buttons in various parts of her
larynS and remove them again and she
will suffer no discomfort. Why this
should be SO nobody knows. The most
eminent throat specialists in the world
have examined her and found no reason
for it. Her vocal cords are as nearly
white as those found in a typically nor
NAL throat. She visits the various elm
les of Vienna and rents her throat out
for gulden an hour to young doctors
who wish to gain skill in manipulation.
