BALL OF HAIR IN STOMACH
Unexpected Cause Of woman's H.
ness 10 Revealed by Knife Of
Hospital Surgeon.

Wausau, Wis.-Without doubt one
Of the strangest discoveries made as
the result Of surgical operation came
to light when a farmers wife residing
in the town of Poniatowski, Marathon
county, submitted to an operation at
st. Joseph's hospital. Marshfleld.
It was first supposed that the in
valid was suffering from a tumor, but
the surgeons knife revealed a far diff.
ferent ailment. A bunch Of human
hair weighing nearly one and a half
pounds was taken from the patients
stomach. So closely was the hair mat
ted together that 1t resembled a solid
ball
One of the theories advanced by
physicians is that the hair was taker
into the stomach by the invalid when
she was In a delirium during an at
tack of typhoid fever quite a while
ago. Another theory Is that they are
loosened hairs from the strands as she
would hold them crossed in her mouth
when dressing.
She has suffered from stomach
trouble for some time. but the nature
Of the trouble was not suspected. She
is twenty-fiv years old. and has four
children.

Minneapolis Girl Outdoes Famous
'Possum Act by Shaking
ProWler From Ladder.

Minneapolis, Minn.-The exploit Of
Secretary of State w. J. Bryan. who
recently shook tree in his back yard
and brought down a possum. was out
done in Minneapolis the other day BY
a 16-year-old girl.
She shook a ladder and brought
down a burglar.
The heroine of the Minneapolis
story Is Miss Babe Noonan, who re-
sides with her mother. She was sleep
ing on the first floor when her ten
year-old brother came to her door
Ooh, burglars" he whispered be-
tween his chattering teeth.
The girl ran to the back window.
There was a ladder reaching to the
second floor. She peeped out and saw
that a man was at the top Of the lad
der opening a window.
IT Just reached out and gave that
ladder a hard jerk and then scream
ed" she said. Then | heard a 'ker-
PUNK sound. heard a man swear and
then footsteps as Of q man running"
BY the time the family was aroused
there was no burglar, but Mrs. Noonan

He Pulled Away.

smoker. About two years ago, accord
ing to Mrs. Lippke, her baby found a
lighted cigar on a table and picked 1t
up. He placed 1t between what few
teeth he had and pulled vigorously.
His mother took the weed away from
him. but the baby cried SO hard that
she finally gave 1t back to him.
Even in the case of a boy fifteen
years old. physicians declare, the
habit would have a serious effect on
his health, yet this child Of three
seems to thrive on the weed.
When a reporter called at the house
Mrs. Lippke had the boy perform
for the benefit of the visitor. AS
there were no cigars In the house
she filled pipe with strong tobacco
and gave 1t to her son. He seized II
eagerly and. after applying a match
stretched back in a chair and pulled
away.
Asked to inhale the smoke, the
child drew a deep breath and exhaled
the fumes from his lungs through his
nostrils with the manner and ease Of a
veteran smoker Of ten times his age
