SENSATION OF STARVING.
Great Craving for Food Soon Gives
Way to AanSuor and Anxiety.

For the first two days through which
a strong and healthy man is doomed to
xist upon nothing his sufferings are per-
haps more acute than in the remaining
stages; he feels an inordinate, unspeak-
;ble craving at the stomach night and
day. The mind runs upon beef. bread
and other substances but still in a
great measure his body retains its
strength.
On the third and fourth days, but es-
~pecially on the fourth. this incessant
craving gives place to sinking and weak
ness of the stomach. accompanied by
nausea. The unfortunate sufferer still
esires fooa but with a loss of strength
he loses the eager craving which he
felt in the earlier stages. Should he
chance to get a morsel or two of food
he swallows with q wol1sh avidity, but
five minutes afterward his sufferings
if he had swallowed a living lobster.
which is clawing and feeding upon the
very foundation of his existence.
On the fifth day his cheeks suddenly
appear hollow and sunken, his body at
%tenuated. his color is ashy pale, and his
eyes wild. CLASSY and cannibalistic. The
with each other. The stomach calls up
on the legs to go with it in quest of
food; the legs, from weakness, refuse.
The sixth brings with it increased suf-
fering. although the pangs of hunger
are lost in an overpowering languor and
sickness. The head becomes dizzy; the
ghosts of well-remembered dinners pass
in hideous procession through his mind.
The seventh day comes, bringing in
creased lassitude and further prostration
of strength. The arm hangs listlessly,
the legs drag heavily. The desire for
food is felt to a degree, but it must be
brought not sought.
The miserable emnant of a life that
still hangs to the sufferer is a burden
almost too grievous to be borne, yet his
inherent love of existence induces a de-
saved without a tax on bodily exertion.
The mind wanders. At one time he
thinks his weary limbs cannot sustain
him a mile; next he is endowed with I'M
natural strength, and, if there be a GER
tainty of relief before him, dashes
bravely and strongly forward, wonder
ing whence proceeds his new and sudden
impulse.-Current Literature.
