THE LATEST HUMAN CURIOSITY.
| 0 I A human being nearly a foot smaller I than the famous Tom Thumb is tho | latest curiosity at Glasgow, This Is Harold I'yott, who, at the age of twenty, is only 23in high. Harold was born in the Cheshire town of Stockport. At | first sight lie does not seem to be as old as twenty (says an English paper). A double set of teeth, dark in color, and some of which were broken, set all i doubts at rest concerning his age, and did not require the production of his birth certificate. He. would not take up much standing room in a crowd. As a matter of fact, he will stand very comfortably 011 the palm of a visitor's hand and the visitor will not be overburdened. The little wonder has never been ill in his life, though his frailty makes this statement appear surprising. He is, indeed, a tender little creature, whose continued existence is marvellous.
