BABE
REFUTES
DOCTORS.
Mile Of Humanity sill Living
inSpite Of Prediction Of Death
Within "a Hours.

Bridgeport, Conn. April 3.-Lying cud-
died up i'm an improvised incubator. which
is nothing less than common chip bas-
ket. with the handle cut Off, the smallest
baby i'm the world is lighting for exist
ence.
The wee bit OF humanity is the daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. Marvin Peck of II
Wyllis place. Baby Peck was a month old
yesterday. She tips the scale a 16 ounces
and is 1S inches tall.
Baby Peck's hand is so small that
wedding ring OF ordinary size will slip
over her mite OF hand up to her elbow
Her feet are as small as those on a small
doll. An oldish expression IL given tho
tiny face. because OF n heavy growth of
hair on the head. A tea cup placed ON
the baby's head would cover IL up clear
down 10 the neck.
Little Miss Peck Is perfectly formed
In every respect, but she is so small and
so deficient i'm physical strength that no
attempt has been made TO treat her thus
far as the average baby OF n month old
The little mite is packed I'm cotton, then
warmly wrapped up i'm flannel blanket
and placed over a hottie of hot water
For the last five nights the baby has
cried most of the time, although during
the day 1t sleeps soundly. The mother
thinks the infant cries because It's food
does not agree with 1t and the physician
is TO make a change
Every two hours when baby Peck is
awake she is given two teaspoonfuls OF
matted milk When taking the milk the
little bit Of humanity smacks her lips
just the same as any strong, full-sized
child.
The doctors said when the baby was
born that IL would live q hours at the
longest. At the end of week the baby
still lived and the medical fraternity said
II was almost incredible Then they gave
IL two weeks 90 live. Again Baby Peck
fooled the wise men
Mrs. Peck l. sure the baby will live
now and the medical men are very deep
~ Interested I'm the case.
