the children make and record daily their

Case of a Brooklyn Woman Who INDUCES
Her Mania TO others Embarrassment.
A curious mania has come to light
recently III Brooklyn through the con-
tinued suffering of its indirect victims.
A woman living in one Of the pleasant
residence portions of the city has been
annoyed now for nearly three years by
the persistent appearance at her house
Of delivery clerks from the well known
shops with G. O. D. parcels for her
number, but not her name. The pack
ages are always addressed to Mrs. Hor-
ton, with the street and number Of the
woman who is not and never was Mrs.
Horton, nor has any one of that name
ever lived at the address indicated.
The parcels are always G. o. D. and
are of various merchandise One after
noon last week large basket of crock
cry, packed in excelsior was unpacked
in her basement area, while the maid
brought up to her mistress the G. o. D.
bill Notice has been given to different
stores of the transaction, and shopkeep-
ers have been requested not to forward
that combination of name, address and
G. 0. d. element, but at irregular inter-
walls they continue to come, eluding the
watchfulness Of the delivery depart
ment. Late at night and early in the
morning these mysterious packages ap-
pear, and, though they are always
promptly returned, there seems no way
to stop them. The only plausible suppo-
sition is that the mythical MRS. Hor-
ton" has a mania for shopping that her
purse does not afford means to satisfy,
but which is thus relieved at the ex-
pense only of time and trouble to other
