How will you separate a mixture of iron fillings and sulphur powder without using carbon disulphide?

The principle behind the separation of iron filings and sulphur powder is the property of iron to get attracted by magnets.

When the magnet is brought close to the mixture, iron fillings are attracted to the magnet and get collected on the surface of the magnet.  In the process, the sulphur powder is left behind as residue.
