, yearn of age and an inveterate
smoker is a rather startling com
bination but Is nevertheless true of
the little son of Mr. and Mrs. E. S.
Edwards of the little town of Arthur
in Pitt county.
Mrs. Edwards yesterday came ror
this city and went up to Dr. Green's
of'.Ice. Rhe was accompanied b^ the
youngster, who could scarcely walk.!
After having been in the office a fewi
moments, the. child became restlcusj
>ind dragging itself up to its mother,
said "Gar-gAr!" in a pleading voice.
As If the matter was not at all out
of the ordinary, Mrs. Edwards pro
duced a strong cigar, which, after
lighting, she handed to the child.
The Infant took It between -Its An
gers, placed It bet-ween its lips and
puffed heartily, seeming to thor
oughly enjoy the strong smoke,
seme uneasiness. (
The boy flrht started smoking
when he was twelve mouths old an:l
now has to have his cigar every dav
!n order to keep him quiet. He Is
not satisfied with cheroots or rail'*
clears, but smokes big black ones
that would cause a mor^ aged raai j
D. M. Clark, of th!? city, wh< j
gave out the Information regardlnj
the above, states that the incident'
Is strictly true 'and that anyone can
satisfy themselves of the facts by
paying a visit to the town of Arthur.
"Only. If you want to make your
visit a plrasant one Tor the young

Cfcrry along a few big strong cigars."
