quite a diminutive man or woman. A
German contemporary points out that
this decrease Of height begins as early
as the age Of 80 years. At 30, we are
told. the human body has reached Its
full height, which is retained for a few
years, after which the growing down
process begins. At first and for many
years the process Is so slow as to b'
almost imperceptible. but at the age o.
