MAY RESTORE DWARF
TO HIS NORMAL SIZE
Special to The Sentinel. ]

New York, Feb. 26.=Surgeons of
Harlem hospital are conducting an
experiment on Harry Needleman, who
is a mental and physical dwarf. which
they believe will enable him to de-
velop the normal mind and size oil
man of his age, which is "a years
When Needleman was six months
old he fell from a chair to the floor
receiving a bad wound in the throat.
The hurt was so serious that surgeons
who examined the child informed his
parents that there was only one
chance TO save his life. That was to
remove the thyroid gland. An oper-
alton was performed and the gland
removed The child recovered and TO
outward appearances seemingly he
was as well as ever.
But as time passed the boy attain
ed the stature and mind of an S-year-
old boy, and there he stopped ana
q he looked like small boy and
there he remained. AT the age OF u
he played games in the streets with
little children.
This would have gone on indefi-
nitely probably but for another acci-
dent. As he was crossing n street a
few days ago. a cart came rumbhng
upon him. Confused by the noise.
his fragmentary faculties gave way
completely and he was knocked down
and run over.
Next day he was taken to Harlem
hospital and his appearance attracted
the attention of the surgeons of that
institution. They sent for Mr.. and
Mrs. Needleman and proposed, with
their consent. to try to supply arti-
ficially the lymph the gland should
have supplied. The experiment was
undertaken at once and the surgeons
expect to notice Improvement within
week.
The expected cure is to be made by
taking an extract made from the
thyroid gland of sheep, in doses OF
five grains each, and injecting IL
hypodermically every day. 1t is be
lieved that the boy will obtain his
faculties and will grow bodily also.
The treatment cannot be stopped.
If he would continue to enjoy the
great change, he must never cease to
use the extract. Should he stop
growth would stop, as the thyroid
gland performs its necessary func-
tions throughout life.

WATCH THE GUM
CHEWER If YOU

BY MARJORIE GRAY.

II the gum chewing girls--or
men, either, for it is pastime by
no means confined to the fair sex
could but see themselves as others
see them, they ould be thor
oughly, however reluctantly, con-
WINGED of the truth of the Darwin
ian theory as to their early ances-
tors.
Don't do 1t girls-not on the
street cars or in public places, at
least.
If you would be cured forever of
the habit, just sit opposite couple
of gum chewers for half an hour,
and watch their facial cOntortions.
If it does not lower your estimate
of human dignity notch or two l
am much mistaken!
True, it is a thing harmless
enough in itself, but it makes a
ridiculous spectacle of an otherwise
pretty woman or fine looking man!
OFFENDER IS UNCONSCIOUS.
The chewer does not realize this
of course. In blissful unconscious
ness of the ape like impression he
or she is producing upon all behold
ers, the jaw grinding goes on with
machine like regularity. 1t comes
to exercise sort of horrible fas-
cination upon the onlooker. A side
view is even more grotesque than
the full front point of observation.
Let anyone who thinks this is
"making a mountain out of a mole
hfll," take a few notes for himself
Or herself.
The trouble is, 1t has become
such a common sight on American
strets and cars-this one of stead
lily moving jaws-that 1t excites
little notice. But one cannot help
thinking with what horror it must
strike a foreigner!
