For ST. Patriek's Day.

The trade in st. Patrick's day but
tons, badges and pins, soon to begin
now for 1903, lasts only few days.
but it is now so widespread and in the
aggregate so considerable that the bus
mess of supplying it covers Il period of
four months, says the New York Sun.
Twenty or thirty years ago a sprig
OF shamrock in the hat, or Il bit of
green ribbon in the buttonhole, might
suffice. but now the production of
things to be worn OH st. Patrick's day
is u branch OF trade. One New York
concern puts out this year thirty
styles of st. latrick's day goods and
issues Il special circular concerning
them. And novelties in these things
are now being added every year.
though it would seem us though the as
sOrtment must now be complete.
The goods offered include various
styles Of buttons, some showing both
the Irish and the American flags, and
some the shamrock. There are Irish
and American silk bows with IL stick
pin attached; there are pipes. mimia-
tule pipes, some With tiny crossed
Irish and American flags, and some
With Il crossed bow of green ribbon,
each pipe mounted OH IL stickpin.
And there are little Irish flags and
badges and roSrttes, and green silk
bows With SlElmrockS. And there are
of course, many styles of SlamrockS
some of these of metal. some of metal
and enamel. and some of wire and
silk.
In fact. there is no end to the st.
Patrick's day goods and some of them
III" very tasteful and pretty things,
and they are produced nowadays ut
wholesale marvclously cheap and there
are now sold many millions of them
every year.
| New York dealers In these things
sell them not only all over the United
States, but in Canada and in British
Columbia. and away up in the Klon,

before the day for which they ar,
especially designed. These various
buttons and pins and badges arc
bought and worn not by freshmen
alone. nor are they now sold solely

M'Gvath, the Irish Giant.

In the Lecture Theatre of the Royal
Dublin Society, Professor ID. j. Cum
bingham gave Il very interesting lee
turc on Chants" and referred in part
ocular to the history of Cornelius NJ
Gr,th, whose skeleton, lent for illustra-
tive purposes by the board of Trinity
college, was exhibited on the stage.
The lecturer showed Il fine series of
lantern views. and his lecture through
out WAS listened to with intense inter-
est by al audience that filled to over
crow'ling every part of the theatre.
Professor Cunningham observed at
he outset that the subject of gantism
had become one of more general in
trrrSt in recent times owing to the
fact that fresh discoveries were being
made regarding the growth processes
of the body. For close on Il century
and Il half the skeleton of Cornelius
MGrath had been one of the most
treasured possessions of the Trinity
college museum. and in every book on
anatomy ana anthropology in which
the human stature WAS discussed re-
ference was made to the great height
Of MGl:th. This famous Irish giant.
however. did not hold the first place.
According to Sir George Humphreys,
MGlHtl was s feet inches in height,
hut an Italian physician, who took NJ
Gl,tl's measurement in Florence.
stated that his height was I feet !,
inches. The latter was probably the
correct measurement. The skeleton
was feet IL inches high, but there
was evidence that M'Grnth, like all
other giants, suffered later in his life
from the shortening process, due to
curvature of the spine. M'Glmth was
born near Silvermincs, Co. Tippcrary,
ana grew so rapidly during his boy
mood that when 1G years old lie was 6
feet inches in height. About that
time MGrnth went to Cork, where he
was engaged for exhibition PURPOSES
He was next heard of in London in
1113, and from there he went to Paris
ana afterwards appeared to have Wis
'tcd all the more important cities of
The Irish standard., 1903-02-28

Europe. In 11GO, some months before
his death, he returned to Ireland in
miserable health, and died in Dublin
at the age OF %. The lecturer then
went OH to compare M'Grath with
other giants, and showed portraits of
them on the screen. He said that in
all probability giantism was due to a
morbid process analogous to, if not
identical with, the disease known as
acromcgaly. He next discussed the
part played by what is known as the
pituitary organ i'll the production of
giantism and acromegaly, and referred
i'll some detail to the theory that the
pituitary gland is regulator of the
growth processes of the animal body.
From this the question arose whether
it was not possible, by administering
the extracted juice of the pituitary
glands obtained from growing ami
mails to influence the growth activities
OF children. Attempts had been made
ut various periods of history to rear
race Of giants, and it had been laid
to the charge Of Bishop Berkeley of
Cloyne that the huge frame of Cor
nrlius MGrath was the direct result
of an experiment lie had made in
giant rearing. But there was 10
ground for this charge. The Rev.
Bishop simply took care of M'Grath
when he saw his pitablc condition.
The lecturer. in conclusion, mentioned
that he himself was pursuing course
OF interesting experiments with ami
mails. ana he hoped on some future oc-
! c;lsion to lay the results before the
public applausel.
