Who Are Tallest

1t is often said that the tallest
people are found in the temperate
zones, and the general idea Is that
the British and the Scandinavians
are the tallest races in the world.
If. however, YOU go carefully into the
figures you will find that this is not
the case, says the English periodical,
answers
The average height of English,
Scots and Scandinavians is the
same. A fullgrown man of each race
averages ) it. 2-5 in. in height
The Irish are fraction of an inch
shorter, and next come Danes and
Eelgians.
But these are not the tallest races.
in the matter of inches the records
are held by Zulus, Troquois Indians,
Polynesians and Patagonians. The
last. the tallcst race in the world,
average TT. 10 1-3 in.
Now the Zuus live in a semi
tropical climate. the lroquois in a
temperate one. the Polynesians in
some of the hottest parts Of the
world, while the Patagonians in
habit the Horn of South America,
one of the coolest and most miser-
able places on earth.
In remarkable contrast to the
Pata eonians are the Laplanders,
who. residing almost on the Arctic
circle. are the shortest race on
earth. a grown man being only
tenths of an inch over 5 feet.
The more one studies the matter
the more puzzling it becomes. but
one point seems clear enough-that
climate and latitude have nothing
whatever to do with height.
Food and fresh air. indeed. have
more to do with the development of
the individual than climate. as is
proved by the fact that everywhere
the farm laborer is taller than the
artisan.
4 striking example OF this Is pro-
vided by Scotland. where the farm
laborer is four inches taller and as
pounds heavier than the average
Glasgow artisan. Again tie fishing
population of the Yorkshire coas,
exceed the Sheffield workers by
three inches in height and % pounds
in weight
