THE AMERICAN MAN.
Statistics show That He Is ha'aie
Than His Brother of the
Old World.

The most important, because the
most fundamental, of problems con-
corning the quality of the American
man concerns his physical condition,
as compared with that Of his kindred
beyond the sea, says the international
Monthly. As to this point the eyi-
dence is so clear that it needs little
discussion. It is evident that the
American Indians, race evidently on
the ground for many thousand years
before the coming Of the Europeans
had found the land hospitable. For
savages they were remarkably well
developed, and though united Tor
steady labor, their bodies we're wen
made and enduring Taking their
place, the north Europeans, repre-
senting a wide range of local varie-
ties, English, Irish, Highland Scotch,
Germans, Scandinavians, Normans
French and. many other groups OF old
world peoples, have, since their I'M
plantation a hundred years or more
ago. shown that the area OF the con
tinent from the Rio Grande 10 the
far north is as suited 10 our KIND as
is any part Of the earth. This is sufii-
GENTLY proved by the statistics OF
American soldiers gathered during
the civil war; the American white
man of families longest in this eoun-
try Is, on the average, larger than his
European kinsman, the increase be-
ing mainly in the size OF head and
chest. II is further indicated by the
endurance of these men in the trials
OF the soldiers life and by the remark
able percentage Of recoveries from
wounds. This endurance OF wounds
was regarded by the late DIR. Brown
Sequard as a feature common TO all
the mammals Of this continent, being,
as he claimed. on the basis Of an ex-
tensive experience, as characteristic
Of American rabbits as of American
men. Moreover, the statistics Of life
insurance companies doing business
in this country appear 10 indicate that
the expectation Of life is greater here
than in the old world.
