STARTLES SCIENTISTS.


SchrOen, of Naples.
The hills and mountains are not dead
masses.
They are filed with life. Their rocks
and powders hide in their bosoms
stern contentious between countless
| numbers-strife to the death
In a word, there is life in crystals.
Hence there is life in the inorganic
world
This discovery has been made by
Prof. Won Schroen, one Of the medical
faculty of the Naples university, in
Italy, Herbert Spencer has investi-
gated the theory and pronounces it
genuine. He has scarcely dared to
predict the tremendous results which
it Will produce.
DR.. Won Hoist, hoad instructor in his
tory at the University of Chicago, has,
through layman's eyes, seen the Won
derfuI discovery and gives the facts 20
the world.
This new truth will revolutionize
philosophy. 1t strikes right to the core
Of nature. The discovery OF the germ
WIS a grand stride in the medical
world. This will be an advance a thou
sand times greater. LIS influence will
extend to every branch of science 1t
forms new theory. 1t brings up tlS,
question whether the world, after all,
is not more organic than inorganic.
1t presses close to the base of all
creation.
One Of its first practical results will
probably be found in hygiene. One
crystal destroys another, it is shown.
This alone will be a powerful factor in
the fight against disease. As the news
Of the discovery spreads, savants will
spring up and apply this new basis of
thought to their particular branches.
DR.. Won Hoist will soon publish the
rews far and wide. He wishes to raise
100000 for Prof. Won Schroen. that he
can present the discovery in every pos
Sible phase to learned men in all quar-
tiers of the globe.
Prof. Won Schroen is a Bayarian by
birth. He is so years of age and has
spent half his life and nearly his entire
fortune in working out his theory.

bringing the strongest magnifying
glasses to bear upon crystals. He
watched their development. He photo
graphed the results. He has thousands
of these views taken from IA different
kinds of crystals.
The views show the crystal in its
birth, the head showing forth from the
mother crystal and the course is fol-
lowed as it pushed out and away. Then
in the language of enthusiasm DR.. Won
Hoist said:
The crystal meets another - one
from a different mother. The two
strike at each other they fight. strive
and clash with each other. 1t is war
to the death. 1t is a case of the sur
vival of the fttcst. One must die. No
two crystals from the same mother ever
fight. however, no matter where they
meet"
All this, the life, the development an6,
the contention, is set forth in the views, :
so all can be convinced who see them.
Il am a historian, not scientist"
said DR.. Won Hoist, 80 | saw all this,
but as layman. There is no room for
doubt, however. Spencer and others
have studied my friends views They
cannot be mistaken"
DR.. Won Hoist met Prof. Won Schroen
while travelling in Italy recently and re-
Cciyed treatment at his hands.
The sum of $4,000 is not too large"
he said; 1t is costly and laborous
work to bring out these microscopic
views. We want thousands made. We
want them distributed through the
world, 50 all may profit by this discov-
ery."-Chicago journal.
