The case {fs baffilug them, and it is feared she will die, The young woman about two weeks ago attended an outing, wear- {ng a pair of new shoes. She scuffed the footwear and in an effort to re- store them, used a quantity of in- deliable ink which she believed to be shoe polish. After wearing the shoes for several days thereafter she no- ticed that her feet had been dyed a deep purple, but she did notsay any- thing to those employed with her. After making this discovery she found the coloring was gradually spreading over her entire body. Other girls in the laundry noticed a peculiar color in Mary’s face, but she only laughed when an inquiry was made. Last night she was tak- en seriously ill and the physicians discovered her plight. Upon being pressed the girl told thestory. The physicians have found that thecolor- ing used upon the shoes has been absorbed through the skin of the feet and by the blood and has been carried through the entire body.
