Popcorn Grows in Head.

A 5-year-old daughter of Elmer Little at Milton, Ind., recently complained of a pain in the head. Friday it ached so violently that the parents decided to take the child to Dr. Gentle of Milton, who made an examination. A grain of yellow popcorn was found in the ear which had sprouted an eighth of an inch. The child says one of her playmates put the grain of corn in her ear on Christmas day. The growing popcorn will be extracted.
