Nevertheless, it is merely a haed glucose substance, which melts in the heat of the stomach and assimilates quite as readily as jelly or even molasses. There have been and are at present men living who can eat real glass appar- ently without suffering from the effects thereof. ' T am oné of those few indi- yiduals, but take no credit to myself for possessing a peculiar physical quality. Nature gave me a cast iron stomach and n affect it. I first tried chewing and swallowing glass when a boy at Nashua, New Hampshire, My- self and kome other schoolboys had been reading in our leisurs hours a flash book ulled “The Gold Hunters in Australia,” wherein we leapned that a drunken Yankee sailor had ground up and swal- lowed a glass turabler during his periods of intemporance. == “I told the boys in a spirit of bravado that I thought T could do the trick. I had frequently ground with my teeth and swallowed grapeseed and judged | that this would not be a much harder | feat. The boys urged me on, I boug! a very thin shell glass and broke a pioce out of it. This [groundexceedingly fine | and swallowed. No evil consequences | followed. and after that I did the samo | thing with thicker glass. Eventually [ went into the show business and made a living out of my gastronomic toughness. I have frequently been told by eminent physicians that some day I will do that trick for the last time, ‘as the glass is liable at any moment to get into the intestines and cause congestion; yet I have not experienced the slightest symptoms of discomfort, and 1 have round up and eaten asmany as nine fine cut glasses in a day. My theory about glass eating is simple. T think that in my case at least no great danger need be apprehended if all the organs of the body are in heuth- ful condition and the stomach is faivly full. Talways eat a hearty meal two hours or less before I givea performance The glass thus gets mixed up with the food, and not being nutritious passes in course of digestion with food hisnot flesh producing or blood ing, just us peach stones and other indigestib) material do. It is not ssary that I should state the salary arn, but so far—and I have only been ix years in the business—I have earned r $9,000 by the exhibitions I have given. Pretty nearly all of that money is gone and I will have to stick to glass eating for a while longer if the fad con- tinues so popular that I can still make | capital from it.” axs E E.
