A Clergyman

Nervous Collapse, Brain Fag,

Neuralgia-

For getting things done, making things go, the invigorating stimulus of Phosferine cannot be equalled, says the Rev. A. H Field. Fully aware that as a clergyman he is bound to make sure of the accuracy of bis estimation of Phosferine, this gentleman states that, distinct from other cases, he has verified and tested the efficacy of the tonic himself It was Phusterine, and Phosferine alone, he says, which raised him from the nervous collapse, reinedied the brain-tag and neuralgia which held down his efforts and arrested his plans over a lengthy period. Since taking Phosferine he is entirely free from nervous distresses, and can put his whole heart and energies into his work, and indeed, stich is his activity that he has roused many helpers to his cause. Experience has taught the Rev. A. H ̃Field that numbers of people do not realise their languor and half-hearted efforts are due to lack of nerve force, and ho believes they will quicker appreciate the efficacy of Phosferine by learning of his own recovery.

Rev. A. H. Field, 335, Brettenham Road, Walthamstow, writes: "It gives me much pleasure to testify to the beneficial effects of Phosferime in any cases of nervous disorder, where I have advised the use of your tonic. Some four years ago I myself had a nervous breakdown, and a friend advised Phosferine. I took his advice, and speedily found that I had acted wisely, for the neuralgic pains and the mental weariness soon took flight, and I was thoroughly braced up. Recently some members of my church, at my suggestion, tried the remedy, and were quite satisfied with the beneficial results. I have advised its use now for nearly four years, and in no case has it yet proved a failure. When one thinks of the great number of so-called nerve remedies, it is satisfactory to find at least on upon which reliance can be placed I wish your Phosferinc every success. When preaching away, I have noticed Phosferine finds a place in the village homes,"

SCIENTIFIC MISCELLANT.

COLD BURNING IN SURGERY,

After experiments in Germany and Ausrica for many years, # treatment of certain skin diseases by burning "with gold has been do- veloped, and is in regular use by many German physicians. Liquid air having proven unsatis factory, carbonic acid is now now employed A jot of liquid carbonio acid being allowed to escape from its cylinder into a porous vessel, a portion is condensed as snow which is compress. ed into sticks 4 or 5 inches long in aguss or metal inte. Saeb sticks-with a tomperature of 112 deg. F. below zero-have been used by Dr. Axman in hendreds of cases, without injurions results. Firm pressure of the stick to the skin for i rosy few seconds is sufficient, as 10, conds destroys the outer skin and 30 seconds ay. produce serices offects. The fesh bohayes ne though horned. The touching is followed by inflammation, swelling and blisters, and in u few days by a skin that many be free from the benishes of the old. The new treatment is specially recommended for moles and other annoying but not serious disfigurements. It bas proven otherwise very useful, replacing Rentgen ays for psoriasin, giving good results in skin caucer and small tumors, and terging to cauterize the navel and wound cavities.

A MUSHROOM'S BOWING.

The spores, which can be made visible by a strong boisi of light, are shot out horizontally with initial volocity of 16 inches a secozil, but begin to fall within a twelfth of an inch

SCIENTIFIC MIND READING,

Studies of woontal disorder are bringing astonishing insight into the workings of the hunian-taind Dr. E. W. Scripture states that mental facts are revented by three methods (1) usual that of simpla observation, in the medical treatment; (2) that of experimental paschology, analysing a patient's mental condition by tests and records; and (3) that of "psychanalysis," a novoi kind of inquisition in which a person is made to betray his thoughts, past deeds and projects by answers or ucts that inconsciously indicate what is most in mind. Dr. Junk, of Germany, is credited with the most striking progress in the third method. By his so- called "association" plan, the patient is asked to tell what is first thought of when any word is speken, the time being noted with the aid of a stop.watch; and after a list of 100- associations and times, is made, the process is repeated, the same words being again called out Unusual length of time, failure to respond to a word, evidence of forgetfulness, or other-an- usual "association," indicates a sensitive topic A well married but jealous and often violent womnu showed most disturbance in the associa tions of "anxiety," happiness," "religion," "choose," marry," "part," "death," "die" and the juferenco we justified that she was un- happy and troubled over the religions difference of herself and a nian whom she Ead married Against herrents' wishes, and was re-question- ed whether it would be better to separate or die. In other forms of this analyse the patient writes the first words that come to him or his first fepressions of a suggested person or thing..

KEST ALUMINUM ALLOY.

With the first addition of aluminum, copper is increased both in strength and in ductility. Alloys do not contain a large proportion of aluminum, and in a late paper to the British Foundrymen's Association, T. C. A. Laatsberry stated that the ductility reaches o anczimum with 7.35 cent., more than 11 per cent of alumin. um making the alloy too brittle for nee, Aileys. with less than 7,35 per cent. of aluminum cannot be worked cold.

* UNDESIRABLES IN THE SOIL. Soil bacteria, we are told, bring nitrogen to roots by decomposing quimal-and-plant-remains and by fixing nitrogen from the air, but it up. pears that their activity may be limited by othe crganisms, so that the proper adjustment of the microscopic life of the ground is a new problem. In some English experiments, Drs. H. B. Hutchinson and E. J. Russell have grown buck. wheat, rye, mustard, wheat, etc., in soil prepared in three ways. The soil being sifted and placed in glazed pots, one part was left untreated, the second was heated to: 100 degrees C., for three hours, and the third was partially sterilized by adding 4 per cent. of toluene, which was then The re- remoted by evaporation in the aft lative weights of the crops obtained were 100 from this untreated soil, 120 from the to. -Imoned soil, and 150 from the soil that had boaA heated. The added fertility seemed to have a bacterial rather than a chemical cause, and further experiments have indicated that certain

protozoans, minute animals, larger than the

bacteria, lessen the affoot of the latter. Thes VICTOR-

protozoans are killed by a temperature of 50 degrees C.,or by freezing – which may explain the good effects upon crops of a sharp frost and of pulverizing the soil in a bot dry season.

THE HOTTEST STAR,

In attempts to determine the heat and light, of the sun and some large stars, Prof. Nordmann of the Faris Observatory has placed the Sun's temperaturo at 6,482 degrees C., that of the Pole Star at 8.200 degrees C., and that of Siring at 190,600 degrees C, or about 30 times the best

of

the Sun, The Sun's illuminating power ie estimated at 13 trillions of trillions of candles, or 1994,000 candle-power for each square inch of the 200,000,000 square miles of the solar surface. The lukuinosity of i the most powerfal electric are light is about 20,000 candle-power, ...

THE FIRST RINAJ OBSERVATIONS.

The rain-gange made in 1639 by Benedetto Castelli, Galileo's contemporary, has been re- garded as the first, but evidence of earlier instruments has been found by Dr. Y, Wada. of the Karman Meteorological Observatory at Chemnipa From Korean records it seems that main-gauges were regularly used as early as 1442. They were bronze vasos 15 inches deep and 7 in diameter, mounted on pillars, and- King Sejo ordered them placed at the Observa. tory and supplied to the Provinces and Cantons, reports of the observations to be sent to Court,
