r Not the wealth of J. Pierpont Morgan or of John D. Rockc- feller, but several large fortunes have been spent in bringing to a point of perfection and de veloping the product known as "Hromonia." The present company, after a long and tedious litigation, has acquired all right and title to the trademark, '‘Hromonia," as sets and good will, etc. In a comparatively short time "Hromonia" will be known everywhere—even to the re motest parts of the civilized world. The proof of the pudding is in the eating. The mere state ment that "Hromonia” is of such tremendous efficacy and so beneficial that it should be in the home of every citizen in the civilized world is not enough nowadays to convince theskep tical public, deluded as it has been in the past by the myriads of fakers and heartless charla tans, who have taken the pub lic’s money in exchange for dan gerous, insidious and habit- forming drugs. The invalid in these enlightened days wants some evidence of sincerity on the part of the ownepof a pro prietary remedy before invest ing money. We propose to sec that every civilized human adult who de sires to try our remedy at our expense can do so without one cent of cost We are capital ized at Four Millions of dollars, this amount being thought nec essary in order to carry out our plans. Read the following carefully: If you have consumption or some of the contagious forms of blood poisoning we cannot cure you. We don't pretend to cure you. You need the indi vidual treatment of some skilled specialist; but if you are run down in general health, if you have dyspepsia, arc subject to fainting spells, a victim to in somnia, biliousness, kidney or liver trouble, catch cold easily, if your system is in that condi tion that you may become an easy prey to the disease germs of pneumonia, la grippe arid the various epidemics, it you are bothered with constant head ache, loss of memory, generally impaired vitality, we can help you, and, if you follow our di rections, render you immune against sickness. Most skin disease can be cured by the use of "Hromonia.” "Hromonia" is to the human system what the scrubbing brush and soap are to the dirty washbowl. It aids Nature to resume normal action. It in creases the strength, the tight mg ability of the phagocytes of the blood; it promotes the healthy How of the salivary and gastric secretions. If vour stom ach is in good condition, you are well. The Chinese are a wise people. They accost each other with, "How is your stom ach?" We don't ask you to invest a cent until you have tried "Hro monia" at our expense. A sin gle bottle oftentimes works wonders. Cut out the Coupon at the bottom of this column.

ANCItNT RACES MARVELS OF PHYS- I ICAL DEVELOPMENT. flir Semlbnrbarlana of llnr Thog»n< Vrnm Am Wrrr All Urmnrkahlj Proportioned Mrn — The Giant* of Ani-lrnl tlrrrre nod Home. That the human race lias degener ated In size ns well ns longevity Is u fact well nttosted by various authori ties. A prominent Washington physi cian who has made n life study of brain and cerebral developments, suys that, on visiting the catacombs of Par ts, what struck him most In those vast repositories of the contents of the city’s ancient graveyards was the great size of the skulls In comparison with those of more modern mankind This superiority of development In the men who lived years or more ago ♦he scientist attributes to the open air life then In vogue and the physical sports and exercises Indulged In. There are several races of giants mentioned In the Itlhle, and the Creek and Homan historians have recorded ninny examfiles which serve to show that these specimens of elongated Ini- inanity were by no means rare at one period of the world's history. Thus it Is mentioned that the Kinper- or Maxlmlau was eight feet some Inch es high. The body of Orestes, accord ing to the Crooks, was eleven and a halt feet In height, the giant Onlhora, brought from Arabia to Home under t'lniidliiH Caesar, measured near ten feel, and tile holies of Keeondillu and I'uslo, keepers of the gardens of Sal lust. were hut six In (dies shorter. Hie probability Is that outside of cul tivated Orecce and Home among the somllmrlmrous of the greater part of present day European nations physical development reached often to more wondrous proportions. The Chevalier Scory 111 his voyage to Uie peak of Tenerife says that they found In one of I In* sepulchral caverns of that mountain the head of a Uuiiiiche which had eighty teeth and Hint tin; body was not less than fifteen feet* long. The giant Ferragus, slain liy Orlando, nephew of Charlemagne was eighteen feet high. Hovland, a celebrated anatomist who wrote In 11114, suys that some years before that time there was to be seen til the suburbs of St. Ceriuuiio the toinb of Hie giant Isuret, who was twenty foot high. At Hoiioii In 151)0, lu digging in the ditches near the Domlttlcnmo, there was found a stone tomb containing n skeleton whose shin bone renched up to the girdle of the tallest man there, bolug about four feet long, and cense- (pientl.v the body must have boon sev enteen or eighteen feet high. Upon tho tomb was n pinto of copper upon which was engraved, "In this tomb lies tho noble and puissant lord, tho Chevalier Ituon do Vnlleinont, and Ills bones.” There Is, Indeed, evidence In the pon derous armor and two handed swords which remain to us in museums to prove that the knight of tho ages of chlvlnry was n heroic specimen of hu- lllUU architecture. lMn tori us, a famous physician, de clared that he saw at Luearuo the true human bones of a subject who must have bceu at least nineteen foot high. Valnnce, In Dauphluo, beasts of pos sessing tho hones of the giant Hucurt, tyrant of tho Vlvarals, who was slain by an arrow by the Count do Cnblllon, tits vassal. Tho Dominicans had a part of tils slilit Ihhio, with the artlculatlou of the knee, and Ills tlgure painted la fresco, with nn Inscription showing Unit this giant was twenty-two and one-half feet high and that his hones Were found In 1705 near the hanks of tho Modcri, a little river at the foot of tin* mountain of Crusol, upon which (tradition says) the giant dwelt. On .tun. 11, 1033, some masons dig ging near the ruins of ti castle In Dauphluo, hi a locality which had long been known as the Glunt's Held, at the depth of eighteen foot dlsooverod a brick tomb thirty foet long, twelve foot wide and eight fool high, on which was a gray stone, with the words "Tliootobochus Hex” out thereon. When tin' tomb was opened they found a human skeleton, entire, twenty-live and one-half feet long, ton feet wide across the shoulders and live feet deep from Mu' breastbone to the hack. The teeth were each about the size of an ox's foot, and his shin bone measured four feet. Near Margarine, In Sicily. In 1510, was found a giant thirty feet high. HIs head was the size of a hogshead, und each of his teeth weighed live ounces. Near Palermo. In the valley of Ma- gura, hi Sicily, n skeleton of a giant thirty foot long was found In the year 15-IS and another thirty three foot high In 1350. Several of the gigantic boues of the latter subject are still preserved by private persons tn Italy. The Athenians found thirty two fa mous skeletons, one thirty four and another thirt.v-six foet Iti height. At Totle, in Bohemia, in 758, was found a skeleton the head of which could scarcely be encompassed by the arms of two men together and whose legs, which are still preserved in the castle of the city, were twenty-six feet long. The celebrated English scientist, Sir Hans Sloane. who treated the matter very learnedly, does not doubt the facts above narrated, but thinks the hones were those of elephants, whales or other animals. But it lias been well remarked that, while elephants' hones tuaj be shown for those, of giants to superficial observers, this can never impose upon such distinguished anat omists as have testified in many cases to the mammoth boues being uuinls- Lukably human.—Philadelphia Hecord. PUrld* t»7 Kwffplnx the Strings With n Feather. Open wide your piano so that tho wires nre exposed. Over the wires place sheets of music, and when you strike a tone you will find that It ha* ft rattling sound. If now you play a tunc In the same manner, with the sheets of music still lylug on the strings, It will sound ns if the Instru ment were a banjo. Anyhow, It 1b a good Imitation. Now remove the music sheets nnd press down gently, but firmly, the keys belonging to any cord. Take the simple cord C, E, O, for example. The keys must he pressed down with out sounding them und held down while some one gently brushes tho strings with a feather or n straw. The effect will be as If the cord were play ed far away nnd Is honrd by you ns very soft tones. Change the cord, nlways pressing down the keys without sounding them, while the feather still sweeps tho strings lightly. In this way you may modulate or play a slow piece, and the efTeot will he very beautiful, Indeed, ns If heard from a great distance. The reason of this Is flint ordlnnrlly a damper rests against each string, hi.'t when, the corresponding key Is struck or pressed down the damper Is raised. In sweeping the strings with the feather, lightly, only the strings that are unhampered sound, the others being hold mute by the dampers, but If the touch of the feather Is too heavy even the other strings may sound, so your care must he In making a light nnd delicate touch. Now press down a key gently nnd hold It. Strike very hard the octavo above HiIh key. hut do not hold It after striking tin! tone. When the wire of the tone struck lias been sufficiently hampered, so that It does not sound so loud, the pressed down key will be hoard to "sing" clenrly, oven though It was not struck. Tills Is been use every note struck Is composed of sev eral notes, being In reality a cord In Itself, and each note contained In that cord causes the corresponding note lu tho keyboard to vibrato, or "sing," In sympathy If held down In like man ner. Tho other notes that will sound under these conditions will always be the fifth above tho octave, the second oc tave and the third and fifth above that, anil these tones that sound are called “overtoil o»." For Illustration, If C In the lower part of tho piano be struck, nny or all of the notes that follow will sound If their keys arc first pressed and held down.—Philadelphia Press. Too Much to Aftlc. A traveler In the highlands observed while at a tavern hi a small village a very beautiful collie. At Ills request the owner was pointed out to him, nnd he usked the ninn what he would take for the dog. “Ye’ll lie taking him to America?” the Scot asked cautiously. "Certainly, If you sell him to me.” "1 no coul’ part wle Rot*," the (log's owner then said emphatically. "I’m mttckle fond-llke o’ him.” And liberal offers were no Inducement. To Ills astonishment, the traveler later saw the dog sold to a drover for half what he hud offered aiid after the drover had disappeared requested an explanation. “You said that you could not sell him," he remarked. A twinkle came into the hlghlnnder's eyes. "No; 1 dklna say Pd no sell him.

It Is to the painter Harplgnles that France Is Indebted for this queer collection of the spurious. Passing through the Hue do Vauglriird one day, Ills eye cuught some canvases In a window.

Pass ing luslde, the list became more exten sive, aud tho puluter found himself In the presence of false Corots, Diazes, Daublgnys, I.ancrets, Isabeys, Neu- vlllos and even English Turners. The revelation of his own Identity enabled Harplgiiies to become possessed of this collection for something less than the proverbial old song, and It may now 1m Inspected * by those Interested In such matters at the state furniture de pot, where It Is preserved as a kind of high water mark In sophistication.

Whole lilult's of the east and southeast coast of Greenland are covered with "thick ets" of this diminutive species of woody plant, • and In many places whore tho soil is uncommonly poor and frozen from eight to ten months a year a "forest" of these trees will flourish for half a century without growing to a height exceeding four inches.
