The Latest Frou Story.

From Wilkesbarre, Pennsylvania,
comes the following: Mrs. Bridget
Mangan of Minnoka, near here, has
coughed up two frogs and is enjoying
relief after an illness of several weeks.
Physicians are puzzled by her case.
Early in the spring she was attacked
by severe pains in the stomach which
would not yield to any treatment. Six
days ago this pain was succeeded by
steady and overpowering thirst. DR..
Haggerty, in the hope of aiding her.
gave her an emetic and to his surprise
she was relieved of a small frog. Yes
terday the thirst began again. He gave
her another emetic and this time
frog four inches long was evicted. She
has not had pain since.
DR.. Haggcrty believes she swallowed
the frogs in drinking water when they
were tiny tadpoles. He will send the
frogs to the New York Medical Uni
versity.
