Thus It Is mentioned that the ICmper or Mn xluiln li was eight feet koiiiO Inch cs high. The body of Orestes, accord lug to the lireeks. was eleven and o Jlllf feet In height, the (hint (Jnlborn, brought from Arabia to Koine undef t'lnudlus Caesar, measured ncur ten i fiH-f, mid the holies of Secondllla Olidl I'umIo, keeperi ff the gardens of Hal ' lust, were hut sit Inches shorter. 'Un? piobablllty Is that outside of cul tlvaled lireece nud Uome, among the semlharhiiriiim of the greater part ol j present day Kuropeau 'nations phytdenlj developineiit reached often to inort ' wondrous proportions. Tho Chevalier Scory lu his voyage tc tho peak of Tenerife says that they found lu one of the sepulchral caverni of that mountain the head of 8 Guancho which had eighty teeth nnd i that the body was not less than fifteen j feet long. The giant I-Vrrngus. slalu I by Orlando, nephew of Chnrlcinagui? was clghtiHNi feet high. ltevland, n celebrated anatomist whe wrote In l'.ll. says that some year lefore that time there was to be heck In the hiiliurbs of St. (Jeruiaae the: tomb or the giant Isoret. who wn: twenty feet high. j At ltoiien lu 1 .''. in digging In t lie ditches near the I lomliileaiiio. there, wus found a Mone tomb containing n j Kkeleton whose sliln bone reached up to tho girdle ol the tallest man there,! belli.; nljoiit four feet long, and conse i (lUelitly the body must have Isvn Hev- cnteeu or eighteen feel high. Upon the j tomb was u plate of cop.cr upon which , was engraved, "In this tomli lies the! noble and pulsHiiut lord, the Chevalier j Uuou do Valleuiont. and his Ismes." ; There Is. ludecd. evidence in the pon derous armor mid two handed Bworda which remain to us lu miiSi-ums tn prove that the knight of tie) ages of chlvlary was u heroic specimen of hu man architecture. l'l.ueriiis. a famous physician, de clared that he h:iv at Lm nrne tho true human Imncs of u sutiject who must, have Is-cn nt least nineteen feet high. Valance, lu luiuphiue, boasts of pos nessing the Isiiies of the giant Iiucart, tyrant of the Yivarals. who was main by nn arrow by Die Count do Cnbillon. ' his vassal. Tlx? 1 loiiiinlcuns had a part of his shin iMine, with the articulation, of the knee, and his figure painted In fresco, with an inscription showing that lids giant was twenty-two nnd one hall' feet high and that his bones were found lu ITii.I near the banks of the Moderl. a little river at the Toot of the mountain of Crusol, upon which, (tradition ays the giant dwelt. ' On Jan. II. l'l.":i. some masons dig-; g'.ng near the ruins of a castle In Hauphliie, In a locality which had long been known as tho Giant's Held, at tho depth of eighteen feet discovered a brick tomb thirty feet long, twelve feet wide nnd eight feet high, on which ; was a gray stone, with the words i "Thcotoboehus Kex" cut thereon. When the tomb was opened they found a human skeleton, entire, twenty-five and one-half feet long, ten feet wide across tho shoulders and five feet deep from the breastbone to tho back. The teeth were each about the tl.o of nn ox's foot, and his shlu bone measured four feet. Near Mnrgarlno, lu Sicily, In 1510, was found a giant thirty feet high. Ills head was tho tdzo of a hogshead, and each of his teeth weighed five ounces. Near l'alermo, in the valley of Ma Kara, in Sicily, a skeleton of a giant thirty feet long was found In tho year 1518 mid another thlrty-threo foot high In loot). Several of tho gigantic boucs of tho latter subject are still preserved by prlvato persons In Italy. Tho Athenians found thirty-two fa mous skeletons, ono thirty-four aud another thirty-six feet In height. At Totle, In Uohemla, In 758, was found a skeleton tho head of which could tcarccly bo encompassed by tho j arms of two men together nnd whoso j legs, which cro BlIU preserved lu tho castlo of tho city, were twenty-six feet long. Tho celebrated English scientist, Sir Ilnus Sloane, who treated the matter very learnedly, does not doubt the facts nhovo narrated, but thinks the bones were thoso of elephants, whales or other animals. l!ut It has been well remarked thut, while elephants' boues may bo shown for thoso of giants to superficial observers, this can uover Impose upon such distinguished anat omists ns have testified in mauy cases to tho mammoth bones being unmis takably human.

BENEFITS IN GOOD ROADS. -ccratlona For Haral tommanltlea to Obtala Tbcm. Organize gool road clubs. Get ev ery association of business men, farm ers, every newspaper, to push along the good roads movement. There- ar few other things more Important to the people of agricultural coramunltie -and rural towns than the good road proposition, says I). M. Carr In Horn Trade Advocate. It is something thai every good citizen should lie Interested In. It Is a question of the greatest elements of economy. Good roads throughout the farming districts of thf country mean millions upon million t of dollars yearly saved to the farmers. They mean millions more in benefits to the rural towns. Every citizen should appoint himself a committee of one to work for the end to be attained by the co-operation of the natioual with atatf governments in the road improvement matter. Don't le afraid to write to your mem ber of congress, individually and col lectively, and urge his support of the proiosed measure for governmental ap propriation for the needed Improve ment Talk good roads to your neigh bor, Join the people of your town in booming local improvement and urge vour representative in the state legis lature to give support to any legisla tion that has for its aim better roads for the farming districts. Expert Snperrlalon Kee-ded. In many communities there exist an earnest desire for rbad' improvement nnd a willingness to have the work gc forward, but unfortunately there Is nc one available having sufficient knowl edge of materials and how best to usf them In building a modern road. Th necessity for the employment of men having the necessary expert knowledge of how to properly construct a road ol pavement is becoming daily more ap parent, says the Good Koads Magazine, The enormous waste in road construc tion and maintenance since the nation was established will be checked and universal good roads will result through proper study and the conse quent working out of ellicient system, of Improvement la the different states. Drink aa an AM to Good Itoada. The saloon Is responsible for thf good roads of Jasper county. Mo, which Is the location of the Joplln min ing district, says the New YorU Amer ican. When the boom started there an Immense number of saloons '"followed the flag," and the money received Id payment for licenses was speut In road Improvement. As a result the roads compare favorably with any In Europe, and mine owners are using au tomobiles In getting about their prop erties. I Good Roeol Notes . State Engineer A. N. Johnson of Il linois Is an advocate of the use of con vict labor in highway Improvement Cuvaho-ra county. O.. claims the dis tinction of having more impioved roads than any other county of the same area In the United States. It s proposed at Quiucy. 111., to work the prisoners in the county Jail on the highways Instead of supporting them in Idleness at public expense. Washington State Good Koads asso ciation will urge the enforcement of tho law for utlllzlug convict labor on tho highways during the ensuing sea Eon. Tho Oregon road commission Is au thorized to build a macadam road from rortland south to the California Una Tho uso of convict labor Is proposed for the work and will probably be adopted. A proposition for building a boule vard from Baltimore to Washington I being agitated. The Idea is for proper ty owners nud autouioi-nists to con tribute and for the state nnd national governments to supply the deficiency ond do the work of construction.
