For every man killed in war ten have
been sent over the gulf by the aid of

"The spirit of inquiry is abroad in
the land" says the Gospel Herald. OF
course ii is, and it would have to be, or
the daily press would soon come to a
standstill.
Many of life's tribulations would
dwindle and take to the woods
if the stomach could only be in
duced to believe itself and attend
closely TO business during working
hours.
When the time comes for tho
final separation of the sheep from
the goats we have a bulky impress
sion that the man who coughs in

the pasture.
You might as well undertake to var
nish a rainbow or try TO stampede
hunger with dime with hole in it,
as expect to prevail on a man to own
up to his wife that he has been in the
wrong.
An exchange remarks that there is a
good deal moro under boys

liable that when you come to put
a money estimate on the precious mo-
mcnts he is obliged to squandcr at

before you that it costs him fearful

We don't exactly understand what
is meant by the soup movement Oc-
casionally referred to by the ncwspa-
pers as being n good thing, but pre-
sumo it means a tin tube running out
to the alley, by which tramp

The Giants Of Patagonia.

The Patagonian, in the upper part
of his body, is Of huge build. His
trunk and head are large, his chest
broad, his arms long and muscular.
On horseback, he seems far above the
ordinary size of man. When he dis
mounts, however, it is seen that his
legs are disproportionately short and
slender; they frequently bend outward.
His walk is heavy and numbering.
These are the wcll-known peculiarities
which are found in the Tarlars, and in
all races of men who spend most of
their time, like the Patagonians, on
horseback. But it is only little over
two centuries since the horse was in
troduced into this region. Tho natives
who were first seen chased the swift
guanaco and ostrich over their i'm
mense plains on foot. Such activity
required long, straight and muscular
legs. 1t is not too much to suppose
that the total change in their habits
of life, which has occurred since they
became nation of horscmen, has de-
tracted at least two inches from their
stature. Adding these lost inches to
their present height, we recover the
giants who astonished the companions
of Magellan, and vindlcate the mar
ratives which later writer's have dis
credited Science.
