Giants of Other Days.

According to an account in an old
folio book, 1859, the ancient giants
reached the enormous height of 80
feet, 1t says; "Fazellus relates, and
from him Cluverius, that 1547 A. d.,
near Panormum, in Sicily, the body of
giant was dug up about Is oubits, or
27 feet tall. The same author states
that A. d. 1916, near Magerene, in Sic.

giant 20 cubits, or 30 feet, tall .Furth-

dug up another body of the same di.
mensions. A. d. 1850, near Entella, in
Sicily, was dug up a body 33 feet high,
and whose skull was about 10 feet in
circumference. There is described the
corpse Of giant Of great size, found
standing in vast cave near Depran-

was like the mast of ship and the
forepart OF whose skull would contain
a Sicillan bushel, which is about a

THE CHILD LABOR QUESTION.
Some Comments by Writer Who
Knows the Subject.

Making children self.supporting at
ten is the horrible suggestion Of a Chi.
cago pedagogue, comments writer
in American Medicine. A farmer will
not let horse be self-supporting until
it is near the adult period We have
called attention to the fact that chill.
dren have always helped to support
themselves, and that the work, until
the deadly modern factory arose,
was invariably wholesome, more or
less outdoor exercise, in a rural en-.
vironment.
Work of itself is normal, and be.
lieved to be needed for development.
If we do not impose it, children invent
it for themselves. We have also
mentioned the fact that the, modern
poor man still needs the child's as.
sistance If the family is large. II
the law demands Schooling, as It un.
doubtedly should-to some extent at
least-then the instruction should be
of character to enable the child to
help its parents as soon as possible.
There is a growing impression that
we must modify our schools to this
end, by introducing the training fea.
lures formerly part of the home life,
but now impossible in crowded indus.

OLD WALL USED AS A SAFE.
vermonter Finds Purse and Coin Hid
den Nearly a Century Ago.

While Louis Granelle of Bridgewa-
ter VT, was tearing down an old
wall of the Bridgewater town farm he
unearthed purse hidden in a small
vault built for the purpose between
the stones. The leather was rotten
with age and fell apart as soon as
handled, but the several coins which
it contained were as bright and fresh
as on the day they left the mint AS
the newest coin in the lot was struck
off 70 years ago and the structure was
built about 1882, it is believed that the
purse has lain in its vault three
quarters of a century. The money
found in the old wallet included IL
silver half dollars, ranging in date
from 1912 to 1882. and another coin,
probably an English fourpence, dated
1776. There were also three dimes
coined in the '20s. Mr.. Grahelle would
not part with his souvenirs at any
price.

NOT SOLID ENOUGH FOOD.
Nuts Seem to Fail to Satisfy the HUI
man Animal.

Next as the darlings of the would
be food reformer come nuts of all
sorts, says a writer in McClures.
These are urged upon us with special
fervor and enthusiasm by those who
regard all foods Of animal origin as
tainted money" besmirched by the
foul crime of murder. Here, we are
told, are foodstuffs-wanuts hickory
nuts, Brazil nuts, pecans, peanuts-of
a high degree of toothsomeness and
attractiveness, not excessive in eX-
pense, and containing larger per-
centage of both proteid and fat.
Analysis made in the laboratory abb
solutely confirm the truth of the state
mcnt: Fats and proteids are both
present in large amounts and in read
lily digestible form; and yet practical
ly no "unemancipated" specimen of
the human race-except the Shawnee
Indian in hickory nut time~-will at
tempt to make a meal on nuts re-
garding them simply as a bonne
bouche, to be taken after the serious
business of the meal is over, merely
as dessert. The tacit phrase Of the
walnuts and the wine" expresses pre-.
cisely where they are in the scale Of
the normal diet list.

monastery recently at the age of 20.
He had been a monk in the monas
terry for more than so years, and he
had absolute command of 80 ancient
and modern languages, an unprece,
dented intellectual achievement.
The celebrated Giuseppe Mezzofantl,
who died in lS49, was reputed to be
able 20 speak so languages, while Mr..
Jeremiah Curtin, who died last year
at Milwaukee, Wis, is said to have

PUF CHARITY BEFORE ALL.
Fathers Disposition of Money Earned
by Sons Bravery.

A heroic act was performed recent
ly in the south Of France by a little
lad of 49, A soldier belonging to
one of the regiments specially men
toned in connection with the troubles
at Narbonne, was bathing alone in the
river Aude, when he got suddenly out
of his depth. The man was struggling
hard for life, when his dreadful pre-.
dicament was perceived by the boy,
who plunged, fully dressed, into the
water and by dint of desperate efforts
succeeded in getting him safely onto
the bank. The soldier thanked the
lad most gratefully for having saved
him, and as soon as he got to the
barracks he gave an account of his ad.
venture, which promptly reached the
ears Of the colonel of the regiment,
who sent for the boy, complimented
him on the courage and resource
which he had displayed, and present
ed him with 20f The general COM
manding the brigade having also been
informed of the affair, asked the lads
mother to call on him, and, after hay
ing heartily congratulated her, gave
her 2Of as well. The father had
been spending the day as usual at
work in the fields, and when. he re-
turned home in the evening he was
rejoiced by the story of his sons brav.
cry, and of the fame which he had
achieved. But he bethought him af.
terwards of the distress from which
the wine-growers are suffering, andr
after consultation with his wife and
child, he set off, with their consent,
to take the 40f. to the relief fund.
