Creek. Each miner receives from two
dollars and fifty cents to four dollars

relays, or reliefs, of eight hours each,
and the gambling houses are run on
the same plan--they never close their
doors, nor stop their games. And the
mines never close down, except for re-
pairs, and the furnace fires Of the
mills are ever burning.
The miners average 500 month
each, and more than half Of them lose
the greater part Of their earnings at

found to lie with the organ OF elimina-

the brain and nervous system. He was
placed in a suggestive condition, was
told that he would be hungry, and
thirsty, and happy. Was instructed
how TO hold his thought toward health,

nervous prostration, gained 20 pounds

unusually good showing. A patient

desired to have her general system
built up that she might be able to un-

with the result that the Nancy meth

stages, and types OF the shreNdest OF
mankind--the speeulator and the cap
italist who is seeking the advantage OF
those possessed with less business abil-
ity, and who conducts his shady trans
actions so that he can just escape the
states prison. This business highway
man knows enough of the teehnicah-
ties of the law to evade it's grasp.
There is also the legitimate business
man, who invests his capital, as else
where, and conducts his affairs proper
ly, and is an honor to the camp He
however, like most others of mining
camp, is here only temporarily, and
takes little interest in affairs other
than his own. There are few who have
come to stay-all are fortune hunters.
Many leave before the camp plays
out" and many others play out be-
fore the camp does.
The life of a mining camp, OF course,
depends upon the mineral TO be found
within it's limits. When the gold and
silver mines begin to ''peter out" the
exodus begins, and those who remain
the longest lose what they have accu-
mulated. as is seen in the history of
other mining camps, where substan-
tial brick buildings are tenantless--
monuments of former prosperity.
No one with business sagaeity expects
mining camp to last very long, un-
less it has surrounding natural ad-
vantages; and 1t is peculiarity OF ma
ture that these are seldom found where
rich minerals exist. Nature is charry
with it's fayors, and rarely bestows
variety in any one locality.
Cripple Creek, the richest mining
camp In the United States, may, how
ever, prove an exception, and last
longer than any other camp in the
history of mining. Should the mines
become exhausted within the present
decade the camp can be turned into a
summer resort. The elevation is 10,
000 feet, the air pure and braciDg, and
the mountain scenery is magnificent.
Yet, the climate is somewhat soporiic,
casting lazy, sleepy spell over a per-
son, which one does not seem to over
come, no matter how long he may
tarry here.
Next TO the mining industry the
strongest hold of the "camp" is the
gambling saloons. Wine the miners

Psychology mean. the science Of the

Psychology means the science OF the
mind; knowledge of the power with
in; and the application of this science
to the physical ills of the body is
known as suggestive therapeutics.
There is no nerve or muscle of the hu-
man body which cannot be brought
under the absolute control of the
mind. At the Chicago school of psy-
ehology patients, as well as students,
are taught the true meaning Of the
power of the mind.
The normal condition of man is one
of health. When a sufferer Is placed
in the right way of regaining health
nature will perfect the recovery. Ply
sieians have too greatly neglected to
cultivate the natural force of reeuper-
alton and resistance Inherent in every
man. Metaphysicians have gone TO
the other extreme and refused TO
sanction the use of necessary medi-
cines. "The wise man is he who
bends all things to his service in the
evolution of good" 1t is not claimed
that suggestion will cure anything
but mental and imaginary complaints
simultaneously. but that by the eff
fects it can be made TO exert upon
the main organs of nutrition and
elimination 1t can be used as n spe-
ciic in some troubles and m adj
juyant in every known disease. The
same force which, II sent into the
arm by the mind. enables man to

ly directed gives him power to over

tion.is the keynote of the school. The
situation is beautiful and the surround

the most wonderful things to be wit
messed in the treatment of a patient
by suggestion alone is the rapid in
crease in weight. Several pounds per

theory is that dyspepsia, headache,
kidney troubles, catarrh, neuralgias,
rheumatism, insomnia and most other
diseases are produced by troubles OF
