rs eighteen years old, who has a
small sore on the top side of one of
her wrists that thirty-one pieces of
glass has been taken from the past
two weeks, from the size of the
tooth of a hand saw to that of your
thumb nail. The glass is said to be
of thre? colors, white, yellow and
red, or the color of a snuff bail wit h
its edges pei zectly smooth. When
the gl iss is first taken out there
was but little or no pain. The
young lady says she can feel the
pieces oi glass as they first begin to
move above her elbow and gradu
ally work down to that sore. That
band is gradually perishing away.
Several of my neighbors went to see
the girl last Sunday. One saw some
pieces taken from bar hand, also
the thirty-one that were in a little
mug. The pieces that are taken
bear no sign of blood on them. The
house is crowded daily with anxi
ous spectators to see and try to learn
something about thia great mystery.
We think she should be sent to a
specialist at onoe! Mr, Adams is a
poor man with a large family and
we think it would bi a good deed of
chanty to help him to carry her to
one.
