K. child of three years old who smokes as many as seven cigars a day, which are given to him by his parents, would seem to be direct; evidence that they, were unfit to take care of him. :i|uohf,% precocious specimen of humanity has just been discovered (says the ■*• Westminster, Budget 1 ") in the neighbourhood of Jersey City, where his.- father and mother are among the best known residents.. From the time he was able to crawl about he manifested a curious fondness for tobacco, and he would eat every cigar stump or piece j of cigarette he coqld find. He began smoking before he was two years old and the physician who has seen him says that tobacco is a necessity for his system, whence the peculiar action of his parents.
