What exactly did you try to achieve? What did you expect? This is
obviously a line that was put there via the customize interface. Did
you copy it into you .emacs? If so: customize isn't supposed to be
used that way. Try `M-x customize-face RET default RET' and set it
according to your preferences. 

[`:size' is not the right keyword for Emacs. It has to be `:height'.]

Or do you want to know what Elisp code you should put into you .emacs
to get such a default face?
