TRIMMINGs.-Painted trimmings of all
kinds are meeting with greater favor than
ever. and many silk and satin panels.
plastron revers for bodices. and larger
ones for trains, are now in the course of
preparation. to wear with velvet or other
materials. Chenille is going to be much
worn, alone or in combination with silk or
satin or jet, as seen in recent lmportations.
There is infinite variety in its uses ;fringes,
tassels, balls and loops. drops and rings
in the passementeries; there are rolling
collars made entirely of chenille, tabliers
of chenille netted in squares, and special
ornaments innumerable for different parts
of garments, and it is to be seen on some
of the new felt hats.

Goliath was 9 feet inches high; his
coat of mail weighed POS pounds. The
Anakims were so immense that the Hew-
brew spies said they themselves were
mere grasshopper in comparison TO these
giants. Eleazer. the Jewish giant men,
TONED by Josephus. was 10 feet inches.
Gabara, who Pliny says was the tallest
man seen in the DAYS of Claudius, was 9
feet inches.
The skeleton OF Pallas Of the Titans,
which was dug out OF stone sepulchre
near Rome in the reign of Emperor Henry
H., was higher than the wall of the city"
Kirchner gravely asserts. And the same
writer tells of skeleton found near
Palermo that must have belonged to
person 400 feet high We have the word
of Lucius Flaccus that during the Cretan
war there was discovered in a great cleft
of the earth the carcass of man OF the
length Of SO cubit, or AZ feet. II Father
Jerome de Monceaux was not imposed
upon, the skeleton Of a giant 81 feet long
was found in wall in Macedonia; the
skull could contain 2l0 pounds OF corn.
and tooth Of the under jaw weighed 10
pounds.
The desutory mention Of monstrous men,
mostly Of mythology and tradition, might
be continued indefinitely. There were
any number of them tramping around on
the earth in the early DAYS. Leaving the
domain Of fable and legend for that Of
real life, we also find some very formid-
able giants. The Emperor Maximus was
nine feet high; he generally ate forty
pounds OF flesh and drank six gallons of
wine every day; his shoe was one foot
lon<ror than tbat If anv other man and No
was IN the habit of using his wife's brace
let for thumb ring. 1t is well, perhaps,
to take little salt with the story that he
could draw carriage which two oxen
could not move Nicetas asserts quite
positively that Andronicus ii. was ten feet
high. John Middleton, born at Hale in
Lancashire in the reign Of james l., was
nine feet three inches his hand was seven
teen inches long and eight and one quarter
broad.
Vanderbrook says he saw black man
at Congo nine feet high. Charles Bryne.
or O'Brien. the Irish giant G76l-17S8,)
was 8 feet inches; and Murphy, con
temporary with O'Brien, was 8 feet 10
inches. Patrick Cotter, who died
in 1902. was 8 feet l-2 inches.
1t is said that of Charlemange,
who was nearly feet tall. that he
could squeeze together three horse
shoes at once with his hands. William
Evans, porter to Charles l., was 8 feet at
his death. Francis Sheridan, an Irish
man, who went by the name of Big Frank,
was feet 8 inches, weight % stone. girth
around the chest 80 inches. He died in
1870.
j, H. Riechart of Friedberg, whose
father and mother were both giants. was
feet 8 inches in height. Gilly, Swede,
exhibited in the early part of the 18th
century. was feet high. Loushkin, the
Russian giant, and drum major of the inn
perial guards. measured 8 feet 3 inches.
Macmillan Miller. the Saxon giant was
3 feet his head measured II inches and
his forefinger inches long. Among other
giants in real lite, but who are now dead,
the following may be mentioned;

WOULDN'T FIGHT DUEL,

1t was in the smoking car on the New
York Central There was one chap who
was clustering great deal and telling of
how many duels he had fought, and behind
him sat small man reading magazine.
"Sir!" said the big man as he wheeled
around, what would you do if challenged?"
Refuse" was the quiet reply.
"Ah! / thought as much. Refuse and
be branded coward What if gentleman
offered you the choice of a duel or public
horsewhipping-the what?"
I'D take the whipping"
"Ah-I thought so-thought so from the
looks of you. Suppose, sir, you had foully
slandered me?"
81 never slander."
"Then, sir, suppose I had ooolly and de-
iberately insulted you; what would You
do?n
"rd rise up this way, put down my book
him by the nose as l take you, and give it a
three-quarter twist-just SOL"
When the little man let go of the big
mans nose, the man with the white hat on
began to crouch down to get away from bull
lets, but there was no shooting. The big
man turned red-then pale-then looked the
little man over, and remarked:
"Certainly-of course-that's it exactly!"
And then conversation turned on the gen.
eral prosperity of the country.

LORD CAVENDISH IN THE ARMY OF

New York correspondent of the Cincinnati
Enquirer, who told me a singular story about
Cavendish. "You may not be aware" said
he, "that Cavendish was in the Army of the
Potomac in 1862, and l entertained him for
a while He came to this country with his
brother, Lord Harrington, now the Marquis
of Harrington, and with Sir John Rose. L
was on my way from Washington, where L
had been i'll, to join Mcclellan, just before

seeing me with generals insignia, intro

Harrington, and with them was Rose. was
pretty i'll, being barely conyalescent, but
lying down, as l was most of the time l
heard them talk, and divided lunch with
them. Cavendish was young fellow, pretty
well made, of frank, bluff style. His elder
brother, Harrington, was something over
thirty years old. When we got out at Ber-
lin, in Maryland, to find the army, these
young fellows still went along with us, and
we came to a small house at the roadside,
standing rather on hill, which had but one
bed in it, and was inhabited by poor
