Mind Cures.

While Chicago il busted with great
material enterprises, Boston is develop
ing new ism" that is likely to create
4 good deal If attention. 1t is called
the mind cure. Literally thousands Of
the people of that good city believe that
disease may be banishcd from the earth
by protesting Ieliof in supernatural
agencies, and submitting to the person
al magnetism of certain highly en-.
dowed men and women, who, by the
laying ON of hands, can rid the afflicted
person of the i'll. he suffers from. Gen.
\. z. Banks, the Rev. w. II. Alger.
and great many clcrgymen are said
t. be believers in the In nj cure. Dis
eases Of all kinds, il il claimed, are be-
cause of lack Of faith. Fear, which
is inverted faith, il one of the melting
causes of physical ailments. OF course
this craze is but the repetition of an
old, old story. From the medicine
man in his wigwam, all through the
history of the race, certain religious,
mystical zealots have claimed that mind
is so far superior to matter rs to be able
to control it. The power to heal the
sick is regarded in many countries, AZ
il has been in all ages, as q warrant
from the Most High to prove the truth
Of certain theological dogmas. 1t is,
however, surprising that SO in
telsigent community as that OF
Boston should give acceptance to SO old
superstition. II is, nevertheless,
true that the imagination has much to
do with the fancied ailments OF nervous
people. Many hundreds Of thousands
of human beings think they are sick
when all they really need is some stim-
illus that will set them to work, or
some absorbing pursuit that will take
them ont of themselves. When ones
energies are directed outward instead
of inward there is no time for brooding
over fancied ailments. This is all there
is in faith cures or mind cures. DEM

Do not attempt too much.
A variety in one meal is not necessary
for two persons, and by having fewer
dishes your attention can be better
adapted to each. Some day when you
feel you would like swell dinner just
put on your hat and invite John down
TO the hotel, and have feast and pay
the bill yourself. 1t will he cheaper
and easier than to attempt anything
elaborate yourself. Later OH, when
you have conquered the alphabet OF
Homework, it will be time enough to go
INTO such things.
And do not dcspise the day Of small
things. Make the most OF what You
have. Ii your furniture is not costly,
let it be kept scrupulously neat. DO
not get very much at one time. Things
will be enjoyed better ii coming ut in
tervals. You can make great many
little articles of fancy work, which are
inexpensive and add so much to the
appearance of room. You can, by
judicious courtes.v, get the groeer's boy
to fetch you n couple of soap boxes,
and, with some bright crctonne, or dark
material trimmed with gay stripe,
make your boxes into little o:tomans or
foot-rests. Get some pipes made Of
clay, for a penny apiece, and paint
them blue, or pink, or scarlet, and use
them for sconces to put candles in,
fastan them in the side of your mirror
in holes which you have bored for that
purpose. These and thousand other
tribes, which are easy of accomplish
ment, do wonders toward making home
lovely.
As to society, if you are stranger in
strange land and have not great
deal OF money, You will not at first have
much society. But Go not trouble
about that. Treat all who come to see
you with cordiality, but do not make
any complaints of want of company.
Learn to feel perfectly Independent,
but do not act SO. Let your manner
be unassuming. Be sure 10 return all
your first calls promptly. Let nothing
delay them beyond week, or, at the
outside, fortnight. Let not one be
neglected. Even if you have calls from
persons whose further acquaintance for
any reason is undesirable, remember
that the first call must be returned. 1t

had lovers quarrel with his sweet
heart. who gave him back his engage
ment ring, q $3.50 diamond. Deliber-
ately walking to the hearth, he threw
the mcmcnto OF blighted happiness on
the stone and with his heel ground it to
pieces. He then returned the lady her
ring. But she was guilty Of no such
ontburst. Calmly placing it on the
mantel, she remarked, well, I'll need
it for my next beau" Tho quarrel was
soon made mp, and the hasty lover had
to invest in another ring.

WASHINGTON, May 18th During the
session of the Virginia Legislature, several
months ago I resolution was passed invit-
ing Senators Malone and RiddIebarger to
resign. This resolution was sent to Ed

with a request that he would lay it before
that BODY. He has never complied with
the request Senator Brown Of Georgia
commenting upon this the other day, said
that it seemed hard that Il State should
be denied the right accorded to her hum
blest citizens of laying its grievances and
requests before the Senate; but inasmucb
