SLIGHTLY SUPERNATURAL. = Two re
markable narratives, one from MONTREAL
and the other from Chicago, have started
on their round through the American press.
The Chicago story relates the discovery OF
a seven year-old girl, who, having the
doubtful advantage of holding recent hhai
rel ,,ions to a man who killed his wife end
then himself, has displayed magnetic qua!-
i,ies of an extraordinary character. IL Is
said that she possesses the power OF 10,
eating mines, finding lost articles, &C.
Whether, in order to experiment on luis
Young person one must apply her as ne
would a branch of the witch hazel, noia-
ing her by the feet, for instance, and wa!cn-
ing the direction in which her head polnts
under this provocation, Is not mentioned.
The other interesting case is that OF man
who became very profane while engaged III
farm work at his home in the province OF
Quebec, and on being demonstrated WltD'
remarked. IF there's God let Him punish
me-" 1t is alleged that an Immediate re-
spouse TO his blasphemous suggestion 'o''
lowed its expression, the man being stricken
with paralysis and fixed immoyaby where
he Glanced to be standing. 1t having oeeh
found quite impossible to lift him from the
spot where be was rooted, as it were, the
neghbors wrapped him about with rugs TO
keen him from being frozen," though quite
another sort of danger might appear to have
been his.-N. Y. Herald.

The GAZETTE was established in 1900 and is
he oldest paper published in the State, and with
one or two exceptions the oldest in the CONF

and to this end neither pains nor expense will %
spared.
The GAZETTE circulatcs among people who
consult its advertising columns before pulchas.

from the fact that large country edition-nest'
ly as large as the dailyis sent out all over ms
section of country three time, D week, and Is
read by thousands, most Of whom send here or
to contiguous cities to make purchases. The ad'
vantages of advertising in tho GAZETTE are
apparent, and need no further demonstration
Tho GAZETTE will continue to furnish the
news kilograms of the New York Associated Press
and of Reuters European Agency, while JUS
