THINGS ONE GIRL Has EATEN.-A
remarkable case of abnormal appetite
has come to the attention of physicians
of Lynn, Mass. The sufferer is girl
agout 16 years old. She is how in great
pain and is is not expected that her life
can be saved. During the time she has
been afflicted she has eaten books,
newspapers, shoemaker's wax, starch
and other things, and Sunday she
devoured pound ofroasted coffee The
first symptoms of the development of
the ailment came while she was read
ing. First she began tearing corner
off the pages of book and finally she
ate entire pages from book after she
had read them, 80 that by the time she
finished the story little but the covers
was left. In five weeks she read twelve
novels and ate every one of them. STE
was employed in shoe factory and 1t
was not uncommon for her to get pos
session of quantity OF wax and eat 1t
with apparent relish Her consumption
of laundry starch was only limited by
the supply. The climax came Sun
day when she disposed ofabout 8 pound
of coffee. After this she became so i'll
that physicians were called in.
The young woman is not insane. Up
to yesterday afternoon, when she had
g delirious turn, she was in full posses
ion of her senses and knew the danger
which threatened her if she continued
her practices.
