A Race Of Giants.

Heretofore there have been grave
doubts as to whether any races OF
men existed on this earth very much
larger than those who now people it.
Breeds of small men who might al.
most be called dwarfs have lived OIL
portions of this planet. Professor
Scheveinfurth discovered a RAGE OF
dwarfs in Central Africa, and Miss
Alice lie Plongeon has described The
ruins of quite city in Central Amer
lea, all the houses of which could
have been inhabited only by dwarfs,
for the entrances and rooms would
have been too small for people from
five to six feet high. In April last,
near Gainesville, Ga, a heavy freshet
of water uncovered acres of skulls
and bones from what is known as the
Tumlin Mound field. Some of these
were so large that they must have
been the remains of veritable giants.
Indeed, one thigh-bone must have be-
longed to frame nearly fourteen
feet high. The account goes Oh to
say that many curious ornaments OF
shell, brass and stone were mixed up
with the bones, and it is evident that
some of the bodies had been Enclosed
in small vaults built of stone. A rep.
resentative of the Smithsonian Insti-
tute of Washington is now investiga-
ting these remarkable archaeological
relics. The report is awaited with
great interest, for it will open a new
chapter in biology if such race Of
'ritans ever existed. - Demorest':

An Editors Opinion.

Beware of anything that the maker
is afraid to own as his own. One
reason, among the great many Others
which we could give why the justly
famed Swift's Specific has attained
such large sale, is the fact that Mr.
Swift, the original inventor, gave his
name to it. This wonderful medicine
continues to grow in popularity, not
withstanding the papers are full Of
the advertisements of imitators and
followers. Indeed it has come to pas,
that this medicine is doing good in
curing those who lave seriously az.

An Established Suocess-The Lar
gest Advertisers IN The South.

1t would be superhuous of course,
to "call attention" to the page adver-
tisement which appears in this issue
of the Times Union of the Swift Spe-
Cific Company. This is no expert
ment with them, or an effort to thrust
a new and worthless drug upon the
market. This blood purifier has been
on the market for years, and grows
In favor and popularity each year,
and calls forth continually scores and
hundreds of endorsements from those
unfortunates who have been relieved
and cured by its use. The growth of
their business has been immense.
They now occupy an entire building
IN one of the principal business
blocks in Atlanta, employing scores
of men and ship thousands of dollars
of this medicine to all parts of the
United States and to foreign coun-
tries.
They are bold advertisers, ranking
among the largest in the world, and
by far the largest in the South. BY
this means they have made known
what they have, and its merits main
tain its popularity wherever intro
duced.
One lesson they teach the business
man, however. Some imagine that
they or their business are too well
known to need any advertising. This
company which is not only extensive
advertisers, having spent annually
thousands of dollars for the past
twenty years, ranking also among
the shrewdest advertisers, make no
abatement in it, but increase rather
than diminish their expenditures in
this line and in the same territory.
They also testify to the superiority
of newspaper neutrality-suspicious.

Paintin the Town Red.

A new origin for the term "paint-
ing the town red" has been dug out
by Tom Jones, of the Harrisburg
Telegraph. ldo has discovered in the
archives of this state that William
Penn gave so gallons of rum and 25
pounds of red paint to the Indians
for a certain tract of land. There
upon he comments: "Just imagine
that tribe of Indians filling themselves
up,with that so gallons of rum aud
doing the great decorating act with
20 pounds of red paint. Why, cow
boy toot or symposium are
as nothing compared to the way the
aborigines carmined the vicinity OF
the village wherein dwelt Billy

purely fictitious character. In fact, in time
they irritate and injure the delicate mem

that the palate soon cannot distinguish

The silly young man in bust
ness in the city who carries his
racquet in and out with him
from suburban resorts to let
people know that he plays lawn
tennis.
The silly fat woman with pro-
portions like a hippopotamus
and dressed like a guy, who in
sists on dancing in all the sets
and thinks she is as graceful as
a gazelle.
The silly old fellow of forty
who decks out his pudgy pro
portions in knickerbockers and
a Norfolk jacket and struts
about under the impression that
he is an Apollo.
The silly woman on the train
who is constantly changing her
seat and having the windows
raised and lowered and who
makes passengers monkey with
the ventilators.
Don't you fret about your
neighbours premises-take good
care of your own and you will
no doubt have your hands full.
Signs are oftentimes deceiv-
ing. For instance, blacksmith
is not a horse, to be sheer, and
yet his sign often tells us, most
emphatically, that he's a horse
sheer.
Ninety-nine men out of a hun
dred would rather pay a bill
than not, but no way has yet
been discovered by which a man
without means can liquidate his
indebtedness.
Clean, neat tenants are more
to be desired than strong drink.
They may strike you oddly at
first, still after you think it over
well, you will no doubt agree
with it.

Before left the United States some peo-
pie said to me that Persia was very hot
and unhealthy place. | pointed with tri-
umph to statement in Mr.. Benjamin ;
(our last minlsterI article in The Century.
Just out then, to the effect that the eli
mate was delightful, and stole upon your
senses gradually, like the zephyr, laden
with the fragrance of myriadS of flowers
or words to that effect. Alas, | have been
sadly disabused. There is a Persian pro-
verb as old as the hills which hath 1t that
Iran hafte ktun dared ii. c. Persia has
seven climates and, as most proverbs, it's
true. Thus, while along the shores of the
Caspian, hundreds and hundreds of miles
in length, the climate is moist, fever laden
oppressive in summer, up in the noun
tains in the Mazanderan district in the
north il is quite raw.
In the central portion. up in the plateau
1000 feet above sea level, from Teheran
into lsphan and way beyond, the climate
on the whole is mild and moderate, with
the exception of the late summer and
early fall, when dysentery, intermittent
fJver, and cholera prevail. In the south,
n Faristau, Arabistan, and Luristan, and
IN a still higher degree along the Persian
gulf, Busheer and Mohammerah included,
the heat is extreme, and it is said that
there are places there which come right
after that other place that must not be
mentioned to ears polite, in point of tOrrid
comfort. In Bender Abbas, for instance,
the inhabitants amuSe themselves during
the long heated term by lying still, in the
airiest Of costumes, in the cellar, while
one servant pOurs continually water on
them and another one acts as a mobile per
petuum i'll keeping the fan going. g.-Teheran
