"That Baby Show."

(To the Editor.)

Sm.-Roally th-t "Show" ought to bo Owr aeain; or at least, tbe judging afresh with unprejudiced, independent, experienced doctors as judges, for the result of \\ ednes day's judging at the Theatro Royal was nothing but a farce. The heavust got ho Wb-e for the lightest; the ugliest tor the -andsome.t. I had a baby boy In the Shov 5 months old, weighing nearly 201bs. and acknowledged by Uio honest-.udging public to bo the hanrliMmest under G inontfa- old, yet the pjrUe w.s given to a skinny littlo mortal boci-JBO— Vf. IJ, I Mip pose, "it was n mistake." Inanoaicrc-.^, a lire Verney had a littlo girl 16 months old, weighs 161b. 1-OZB., yet a bigger, heavier, and older child got the prize, and the *am_ in dozens of similar cases.
