POISONED BY STAMPS.

Girls Twin Brother Also Has SINH
lar symptoms, Perhaps sympathy.
Miss Irene Cole, who lives at Park
Ridge, N. j., and is employed as a Ste
nographer and typewriter in Hoboken,
is suffering from poisoning, and two
physicians agree that her illness is the
result of m%oistening postage stamps
with her lips. The first symptoms were
felt a few weeks ago, when Miss Coles
lips began to swell, and since then the
swelling has extended to her neck and
into one Of her arms. A rather singular
feature of the case is that her twin
brother, who has not been using postage
stamps or anything else that would poi
son him, is suffering from symptoms OF
poisoning in precisely the same manner
as his sister, his lips, neck and one arm
being affected.
Miss Cole is IS years old and always
enjoyed good health until her present
affliction came. A few weeks ago her
employer dictated a great many letters.
Miss Cole affixed the stamps to them.
On the following day Miss Coles lips
were swollen, and she could not account
for it. She consulted DR.. Vroom Of
Ridgewood, who asoribed it to the post
age stamps and treated her accordingly.
The girl went to Ridgewood, visiting
the home of her parents, and found the
whole family i'll from typhoid fever.
Then she went to the home of her uncle,
Alonzo Campbell. She did not make
much progress toward recovery and
sent for DR.. Near, who also said the
postage stamps had caused the poison
ing. Miss Coles condition is much i'm.
proved, and, what is more remarkable,
her brother, who has not been treated
for the poisoning, but for typhoid fever,
also is much better. The idea is ad-
vanced that the symptoms of poisoning
shown by the girls twin brother are of
a sympathetic character. New York
