SOMETHING ABOUT GIANTS.
TnIIest Men of Our Day Compared
with Those of Ancient Times.

From the Chicago Record.
Old chroniclers tell wonderful stories OF
the giants that used to walk the earth,
even as we read in the Bible of Goliath,
who was slain by the youth David. In
later days perhaps the most interesting
book on giants was written by a French
scholar named Henrion In 171S. This book
asserted that Adam. the first man. was
1913 feet inches tall, and that Eve was
only five feet shorter After Adam man
began to lose hight rapidly. Noah, says
NJ. Henr.on. was about q feet tall and
Abraham measured not more than 20.
Moses reached only the poor hight OF 10
feet. and finally man had to be contented
with feeble little frames from to feet
IN hight.
Many huge human skeletons have been
found according TO report II Is said thar
the skull of Chevalier Rincon, whose re-
mains were discovered in 1909 at Rouen.
held bushel of wheat The shinbone was
four feet long and others i'm proportion.
Many other similar skeletons were found.
one in Sicily that measured 300 feet in
length In the present century, however,
il has been shown that these skeletons
were not of humans but of prehistoric
beasts.
one of the worlds famous giants was
HdtfiCk AOLtef ~ Dtltus WHO was UOin at
Kinsdale, in Ireland in 1861. He was s
feet 3 inches tall, and was the greatest
giant of his day. He died in 1904 In the
museum of Trinity College, Dublin, is the
skeleton of a giant named Magrath who
was Z feet inches high.
1t is an interesting fact that giants as
a rule are both weak of body and of mind,
while dwarfs are usually keen-witted and
healthy. A story is told that the Empress
of Australia the seventeenth century had
all the giants and dwarfs of the Germanlc
empire assembled at Vienna. They were
quartered together. and fear was express
ed that the giants would terrify the
dwarfs The contrary proved to be the
case The dwarfs tormented and robbed
the giants to the extent that with tears
IN their eyes the giants begged to be pro-
tccted from them.
The usual FERGUS and museum giants of
to-day are rarely over feet in hight, but
they wear high-heeled boots and high hats
that add q foot or more in hight to their
appearance.
