A Girl Who Sweats Needles.

Paris Dispatch.
A dispatch from st. German de-
scrlbed the extraordinary case OF JUL
enue Landrieux, servant girl, from
whose body dozens OF needles are being
extracted. The girl complaining OF
considerable irritation of the skin, went
to local druggist, who found num-
Der OF needles emerging. from various
parts OF her body. He extracted them
with pipcers. The girl has returned
several times day since and up to now
the druggist has drawn out l2O needles
from her arms, hands, feet, breast, the
lobe of her ear, her eyelads and the
corner of her right eye. The girl ex-
periences no pain until she feels the
needle piercing the eridermis. The
needles always emerge thick end first
and unless Immediately extracted dis
appear again.
Two reputable newspapers, the Ma
tin and the Temps, have investigated
the matter and vouch for the authen-
ITCHY of the story. Mile. Landrieux
says that tive.years ago when she was
eleven years old she amused herself
with other children by swallowing
quantities OF needles. She swallowed
forty-nln in ore day and never fel.
any Inconvenience until recently, has
enjoyed the best of health. While
relating the foregoing to the reporter
of the Temps. who saw her at the drug
gist's she exclaimed
II feel one in r.y oye now"
The druggist then upturned her
right eyelid and with a magnet drew
out four fragments OF needles.
A surgeon of The hospital at La Sal
petriere said in an interview that the
case was quite unprecedented. Needles
inserted under the skin were known to
have been borne through the muscles,
but there was no record of a needle in
PRODUCED into the stomach emerging
from the lobe of the ear. In such a
case the needle must have traversed
the skull which is comprehensive.
