Gas from Sawdust..

An excellent use has been found
for tho enormous quantity OF saw.
dust annually made in the lumber
regions of our country. From the
Popular Science Monthly, welearn
that Illuminating gas is made from
it. Any kind OF sawdust can be
used; but that from resinoas wool
is preferable and affords alarger
yield of gas. From twenty thous
and to thirty thousand cubic feet
of gas is obtained from u net ton Of
fuel. The wood-gas has the advan-
tage of containing no sulphur, is
moro easily purified THAI coal gas.
and is said to be fally as gooi,
while 1t is less expensive. The or.
dinary burners are used for wood
gas. Mill owners can construct the
chemical works to make their owa

THE MIND CURE.


The "Mind Cure is the latest
Boston cult, says New York
Graphic Boston correspondent.
There are now three women who
pose before the public as accom-
plished "mind curers,n aud give
lectures aud instruction on the sub
ject in public halls or in paIlor
meetings. At IA recent meeting in
IA house at the West End there
were present Mrs. Elizabeth Thomp-
son, DIR. Bartol, Mrs. Abbey Nor
ton Diaz, Mrs Maria S. Porter, DIR.
Mary J. Stafford and two or three
others. Opinions were divided.
The "mind eurern related many
singular cures which she claimed
could be proved by investigation,
which she invited. One instance
was to this effect: A young lady
had been for many years con-
iirmed invalid, unable to walk. The
"mind curern was admitted to her
chamber, where she sat down and in
her phraseology ,"bore on her
mind.' She soon perceived, she
relates, that the invalid was suffer.
lug from nervous fear. She sought
the mother aud inquired If her
daughter had ever experienced any
severe fright. The mother replied
that she had that her long illness
had resulted from being chased
and tossed by n horned animal /,
and that she was found senseless,
mad since then had never been able
to be about. In sleep she dreamed
of the terrible occurrence, and when
awake 1t haunted her thoughts.
The "mind curer' now applied her
mental power to eradicating this
impression on tho mind of the in-
valid, and to infusing new power
of hope and life. THE girl began
to feel the invigvrating influence.
Each day the mind physician came,
aud each day the girl grew stronger
Soon she sat up, then sue walked {:
then she came up town aud visited
the io eign exposition; aud it is
claimedthat she is today as well as
anyone. The theory ofthe metaphys-
ical cure is that there is really no
such thing as disease that is a
deusion, u warped aud unbalanced
mental condition. Something OF
this power is more or less universal
A lady IN Boston who is endowed
with one Of the most noble, gener.
Gus aud hopeful of natures, believes
that she eau exercise this Influence,
Her experience as she relates 1t is
that the little son of her laundress
had epleptic fits; that she put her
hands on the boy, talked to him
long and kindly, and said: "Now
you are not going to have any moro
OF these; you must believe me aud
aud | will cure you.n The attacks
diminished, ouly one or two APP
peariug after that, aud for weeks
the child has been entirely free
from them. The mind curers claim
that an invalid or sufferer from any
cause could cure himself, were be
sufficiently strong mentally. The
phenomenon presents some inter
esting phases worthy of scientific
attention. "There are more thugs
in heaven and earth, Horatio,' etc.

No; the Mississippi commission
has no provision tor the cessation
of salary during the tune enjoined.
Mr.. Campbell is not the clerk of The
supreme court, but u deputy clerk
OF that court. His salary as such
deputy is probably $1,000 q year,
which with the $1,000 as salary
for the clerk of tue commission
would give him a salary of 81, 200 ;
but such an arrangement is com.
mon in this State. 1t frequently
