The strange case of the little daugh-
ter of James Gardner, of Bessemer,
Mich, continues to attract the atten-
ton of the medical fraternity. Mr..
Gardner, who Is a miner, lives near
the mine where he is employed. The
child has developed an uncomfortable
appetite for iron ore, which she eats
with relish, and in spite of her peculiar
diet is apparently healthy, strong and
bright. The child is now about two
years of age and has been addicted to
the habit ever since she could creep. She
eats particles of ore which she gathers
with her baby fingers from the ground.
When the child has been kept away
from the mine she has been known to
scrape the ore from her fathers boots,
devouring the ferruginous food with

many plans to break the habit, but as
yet without avail. They have tried the
experiment of mixing all kinds of OBJ
noxious drugs with the ore, but be-
