REASON FOR GIANTS.
Small Gland in the Drain Causes All
the Trouble.

the Trouble
Pretty much everybody knows that dis
ease causes the abnormal development of
parts of the body, but whoever imagined
that disease made giants? Elephantasis
of the entire anatomy is rare. it is true
but scientists now declare that gigantic
stature is not natural to man, and is the
product of disease.
According TO DR.. Charles L. Dana all
giants become such because they are the
victims of disease, a neurotic or nervous
ailment, and that the seat of trouble is in
the head, where little gland works out
its monstrosities.
In the February number of Scribner's
Magazine DR.. Dana writes entertainingly
and instructively on Giants of Giant
ism. The doctor does not conhne him
self to the medical aspects of his subjects
but gives a good deal of interesting in
formation about big people which the
general public never knew. A real giant,
DR.. Dana says, should not be under eight
feet tall. though many who are consid-
cred giants and who have been ex-
plotted as such in the past are and were
below that height.

Acromegaly. DR.. Dana claims. is the dis
ease responsible for all the giants that
have ever liied. In connection the doctor
says;
.iThe disease acromegaly is a very rare
one. II was described first by a French
physician, Marie about eight years age,
and since then less than 100 cases have
been observed In all those cases in which
death occurred and an autopsy was made
the enlargement Of the pituitary gland
was found No other change so striking
or unique was discovered, hence the in
ference that this enlargement had some
thing to do with the disease was made.
Further. Investigations have shown that
this modest organ, to which, heretofore
little attention had been paid, has most
curious geological history, and appar-
emily exercises a very profound innu-
erlee upon the nutrition of the body.
"Jn several cases in which the gland
was diseased It was observed that the pa
tents wasted away; that the temperature
of their bodies fell. anc that they showed
other and progressive disturbances in nu-
triton. Experiments upon animals still
further proved that its injury or destruc-
ton led to emaciation. disturbance In
