Great Men Tall and Short.

A recent investigator has attempted
TO show that Lombroso and his follow
ers were wrong in asserting that men
Of genius were Of small stature. OF
23O individuals Of eminence he found
that figures were obtainable for 103;
of these sixteen were of middle height,
ffty-eight above and twenty-nine be-
low.
Americans particularly combined
greatness with inches. Jefferson and
Jackson were more than six feet tall.
Sumner was six feet four inches, and
Washington. Lincoln and Beecber were
more than six feet. Among famous
foreigners Tolstoy was a large man,
and so were Thackeray, Bismarck and
Darwin.
On the contrary, many Of the worlds
greatest geniuses were understood and
even deformed. Napoleon, Poe, Pope,
Alexander the Great, Nelson, Blake
and Caesar we're small men.
