ordlnary-slsed child. IA gentleman's
high hat almost ns completely hides

small that he can not be compared to
any other human being. When It Is re
membered that nn ordinary child ot

with his clothes on, tip* the scale at
six and a half pounds, nearly four
pounds less,.one can get sonic Idea of
the mlcroacoplo proportions of this
real midget. The little gentleman la
nearly of full legal age. has a fairly
gnud education, a linguist, conversing
with ladles, children nnd others lit
Russian, English and French, and has
besides many rriualcal and other no-
compllahnienta. Ho Is a most charming
little gentleman, with whom all tho
children are delighted, and Is pelted
nnd ndmlred by nil the lndlea visiting
the show. As a living human curiosity
It Is safe to say he baa never had hla
equal,, for being so much smaller than
all others ever exhibited, possessed of
n bright, cheerful disposition, with a
form nnd fljure n» perfect as any, and
nearly oa. much Intellectually, he ex.
cites enthusiasm and wonder at hi!
else, while fascinating everybody with
hts manner and Intelligence. Great Pe
