Sitting on a beneh,zin the lobby of the

glance revealed the cause of his choice of
bench; perforce; because he had to take
something larger than a chair, for he
carries around with him a waist meas
ure of 102 inches, almost three times that
of an ordinary man, and, owing to his
great weight and immense proportions, Is
unable to enjoy the accommodations in
