Not the Reason.

II IS not because Pyramid Pile Cure
is SO expensive hat many people de-
cline TO give e a trial but because
they find it too great a tax on their
crcdulity TO believe that the publish
ed letters bearing testimony to the
merit Of this remedy are genuine and
bona hde; especially to those who
have realized the suffering incident to
piles is it incredible that anyone who
has been afflicted twenty-five and
thirty years with the worst forms OF
protruding and bleeding piles should
be cured by the application OF a
simple remedy when their physician
has assured them that the only re-
lief IS in a eurgical operation This
is iightfully viewed with dread by all
those afllctedt as it means at the
least a great shock to the nervous sys.
TEN. with raore than a possibility Of
utter collapse and death; in the ma
jority Of cases, 100. there is a return

that the cause is not removed.
The proprietorF of Pyramid Pile
Cure agree to forfeit one thousand
dollars to anyone who viii show a
single published testimonial to be not
genuine and unsolicited; this latter
feature is most gratifying. inasmuch
as these letters are written solely out
of gratitude ana with the hope that
those who are afflicted as the writer's
have been may learn that relief is at
hand at a comparatively trihing ex-
pense. Pyramid Pile Cure is for sale

The church IN the country fills a
larger place in inc life OF the people
than 1t dues in town. 1t was and still is
the centre OF the life in st. Martins
Parish, in Hanover.
On arriving at church each gentleman
had his own place, generally "a sw ing-
ing limb, at which to tie his horse
quite as much as he had his seat in
church, and it would have been quite
as much breach of deoofum to take
one as to usurp the other. This was
matter OF strict and necessary etiquette
for there were certain families who
never were on time, lust as there we're
others who were always on time. Indeed,
occasionally this variance was the case
in the same family, for | remember
discussion in which one gentleman
charged another with always having
been late for church, while the later de.
clared that he had never been too late
for church 10 his life.
The ladies always went Into church"
immediately on arrival; the older gente-
men as soon as the clergyman entered
the chancel the younger gentlemen at
the first SQUAD Of his voice and those of
the palmer people who we're not Episco-
palians came in about the time OF the
second lesson, their object being-in-
scrutably as We thought-to hear the
sermon.
/ In church the men sat onsone, side tine
aisle, the ladies on the other.
Before the minister entered there was
usually buzz Of conversation through.
out the church, and after service there
was quite levee in the aisle. re.
member once Col. Nelson, the senior
warden, as the hum of conversation
before service grew too loud, rose in his
seat and said, quietly, 1.-THE Lord is in
HIS holy temple, let all the earth keep
silence before Him. The hubbub
ceased,
The organ was in the gallery over the
entrance, and as the chants were sung
number OF the men used to turn their
back on the pulpit and leaning against
the backs of the pew gaze up at the
choir.
The choir led the singing, but the
whole congregation sang. From IAN

UTILIZATION OF SAWDUST.
Forum.

Forum.
There are many instances of published
experiments in the utilization OF waste
which read as il they we're intended to
be facetious, although the Investigators
are wholly In earnest. One chemist
made wine jelly out OF old boots, and
was enthusiastic about it--more SO,
probably, that those who partook OF i
and did not learn the fact until later.
Another converts old shirts into lucose,
ferments it,distis off the alcohol, colors
aud tlavors 1T and produces fms grads
of whisky. Still another scientitio ex-
perimenter feeds his whole family with
cakes containing a large amount of
powdered sawdnst, and is pleaseu to find
that the diet is rel;shed and digested.
Speaking of sawdust. it ia a singular
fact that in the United States tn il
waste has been allowed to accumulate
in various places until it has become
nuisance. especially when it has been
allowed to ran into rivers and choke up
the channels, disigure the shores and
in other ways make trouble. Althoug
there are not few methods OF utilz-
ing sawdust, but little atteinpt seems
to have been made in this country.
The amount of sawduat produced has
been reduced by tine displacement of
che circular saw by the baud saw, which
makes much less dust here is, how.
ever, plenty OF sawdust produced, aud
as rule it does not find application.
In view of this state of affairs brief
mention of some of the utilization of
sawdust will be of interest.
The first use. as would naturally
occur to any one. is 10 burn it. Several
special forms Of furnaces have been in.
vented to do this efficiently. In some
cases the sawdust is dried before it is
burnt, while in others it IL dried in the
furnace in which 1t is burnt 1t can
also be mixed with coal slack, SPENT
dyewood, turf, neat. &c, and com
pressed into briquettes, which allows it
to he sold for use in place of coal. AS
coal is often very highly priced in
regions where sawdust is produced,
there is an opportunity for large
profit. By the dry distillatinn OF saw
dust all the distillation products of
wood are obtained, and this manu-
faeture can he conducted as an adjunct
to the working of wood in way to
insure profit The products obtained
a"e gas, wood alcohol, acetic acid, tar
and oils. From the tar there have been
obtained benzole, toluola, zymole,
cumole, paraliine, naphthalene and
Hydrocarbons which are used In the
manufacture CT aniline o1lors. Uarholio
acid and creosote are also obtained. AS
a last product charcoal is left in the
retorts.
BY sieving out the coarser particles,
mixing the remainde, with various
filters ana agglurinants, compress ing
and heat ng, sumo very Interesting
materials have been made in the way
of artificial wood, plastic masses, &c.
Such material was brought out by
I.atfy in Paris, and was made from pre-
pared sawdust and blood. 1t formed a
ha d, black Substance, which could be
fooled and msohined like wood. 1t took
a nigh polish, and could be glued,
