ADAMS ALTITUDE AND SIZE.

Many and interesting have been the speculations as to the probable dimen- sions of our first parents. assuming tha: Adam and Eve were the first There have always been such speculations. anf, so far as we know, there have always been learned men to insist that the size of the first human beings was in propor- ,ion to their length of life. One investi- gator has reached the exact height oi Adam, and puts it at 123 feet and inches and Eve some four feet less tall. rms is cutting it pretty fine. and If true 1t brings up some quite interesting ref1ec- lions. Think of the number of skins 1t would require to make an overcoat 10: such a man or a cloak for such a wo- man, unless, indeed, the animals Of that day were in the same proportion. Then that difficulty would vanish. It would have been hard on the fig-trees, however, before the skin clothing was introduced
 But 1t must not be forgotten that an immense altitude means an immense weight. for the same proportion would have been observed then that obtains at this time. For instance. boy three feet high weighs 70 pounds, and man six feet high weighs four times as much, or l6O pounds. This is about fair calculi- ton, and applied to a man of 124 feet he would weigh thirty or forty tons. at the least, and if he had been abnormally fat. like some of our prize citizens. his weight might have exceeded a hundred tons. Think what an attraction he would be at circus!
 And we should take into consideration the question of food. This would Fave made little difference with the first pair because vegetable and animal food doubt less existed in practically unlimitei quantities, and Adam and Eve could have all they wanted, but we must con sider that the great increase of popula- ton must have caused famine, unless there was a gradual decrease in size from the beginning. And if that was not the case Noah would have had a hard time to make room for them, even if the an- imals were no larger than at present. A man of the proportions we have as- stunned would require food in proportion. and at a rough guess we should say that he would have taken at least 400 times as much food as one of the present size, and to supply such rations would have strained the ark right smartly.
 It is all idle speculation, perhaps, but as already remarked, there have always been scientists who insisted that the first man and woman were of a size pro- portionate to the years of life allott d to them.
