Man and His Size.

The ancients contended that the first
men on earth were mighty and godlike
and that they degenerated in vigor and
size, while later historians have tried
to prove that they were Of dwarfish
appearance. At any rate the present
average height of the whole human
species is five feet five inches, yet the
tallest Greek exceeded this by about
forty-six inches.-Baltimore Star.
