EXPERIMENTS IN HYPNOTISM.
Doings of the Doctor* ia Pari*.
Startling Mental Phenomena.
,Dl. Luys recently made a communica
tion rt/i the Academy of Medicine on this
subject which electrified the members
present. It was on the action, both at a
■ distance and by direct contact, of certain
inedicgted and fermented substances on
hypnotic subjects. The latter were all
women who could not possibly have got
their cue .'beforehand, and were being ob
served while Dr. Luys operated by a jury
of scientists above all suspicion of having
lent themselves to any trickery. A tube
::: one instance was filled with sulphate
of strychnine .by Dr. Luys, and the sub
ject, who was not present, was told to
put it to the left side of the nape of her
■ leek. Soon after .there was a telephonic
message from the /foreman of the jury to
say that the patient suffered in the left
side from muscular contractions, convuls
ive starts and a rigid body. When the
drug was placed on tlie right side of the
nape (in imagination) the same phenom
enon took place.
An experiment, or rather experiments,
was made op subjects who were brought
in to the operator. They had no idea
what Dr. Luys was going to use. Al
cohol when put to the nape in a tube
no larger than a homeopathist’s vial and
hermetically sealed produced exactly the
same effect as if imbibed at a bar. Ab
sinthe, hascliish, opium, morphine, beer,.
■ champagne, tea and coffee were in suc
cession tried with their characteristic ef*
tects. But “the cup which cheers but
not inebriates” was found too exciting
for French neuropaths. Valerian caused
the deepest sadness. The thoughts of the
patient were centered in a grave. She
was impelled irresistibly to stoop down
and scratch the ground, and thought her
self in a cemetery exhuming a deceased
relative whom she loved. Under the il
lusion she fancied herself picking up
lx)nos belonging to this skeleton, which
she handled with tender reverence, and
when there was an imaginary mound of
them she placed, with dep drawn sighs
and tears and genuflections, a cross above
then:. Under the influence of liaschish
everything looked rosy and gayety pre
vailed.
The subject was a young girl, very
fond of the drama. She fancied herself
on the stage and playing a part which
suited her to perfection. It was in a
bouffe opera and she sang her score ad
mirably. The sentiments were expressed
with delicate feeling. Dr. Luys can, ac
cording to the substances he uses, run
through the whole gamut of human pas
sions and emotions.
"Wliat is most strange is that no trace
of the fictitious world in which the
hypnotized subject has been wandering
remains when real consciousness is re
stored. It is very rare for even the idea
of having been in dreamland to survive
the awakening from the hypnotic trance.
Dr. Luys says that hypnotic suggestion
climes has periods of incubation more
or less long. The subject is at first gently
drawn to do a certain thing or things,
and then the drawing becomes an irresis
tible impulse. They are first as if tempted
and then as if possessed. They 7 can no
more help themselves than a man who
had got to the verge of Niagara Falls in a
boat could help going over.
Dr. Roger moved that the academy
name a commission to inquire into hyp
notic suggestion, near and at a distance.
Dr. Bronardel supported him. He said:
• ‘All 1 hat Dr. Luys has alleged and shown
cannot fail to make a noise throughout
the world. Nobody but MM. Burot and
Bourcn have gone so far as Dr. Luys,
He not only forces on the attention of the
academy the question gf hypnotism, but
of persons being affected by poi»- nous
Substances which do not penetrate, or it
may lie even touch, their bodies. This is
from a legal point of view a great danger.
A great social responsibility is involved
in the matter. It is the duty of the academy
to have the experiments of Dr. Luys re
peated, with others that bear upon them. ’ ’

Dogi la Bavaria.
Bavaria has succeeded in doing what
no other oountry has yet been able to ac
complish; she has practically stamped
out hydrophobia. During the-last seven
years there have been only three deaths
of human beings from hydrophobia in a
population numbering close upon 6,000.-
000; and since 1876, when the present
severe dog laws came into operation,
there has never been more than one death
in a year. Previously to that time deaths
were very frequent. Between 1863 and
1876 the death rate from hydrophobia in
Bavaria was never less than fourteen in a
year, and once it readied the high per
centage of thirty-one. The regulations
which have banished this terrible malady
from a whole kingdom are very minute, ^ r ^ ^

Jiis collar a metal tally, upon which is in
sen lied his number upon the register of
his district. The color and shape of this
tally, which is really the deg’s passport,
are changed every year, and the police
are thus able to see at a glauce if a dog is
“in order.” Once a month all dogs have
to be examined by a veterinary surgeon,
and if they are not m good health they
are detained in a kiud of dogs’ hospital
until they recover. If an animal changes
hands, the transfer must be at once noti
fied to the police, and any breach of the
regulations—even a delay of a few days
in tlie payment of the tax—is visited by
a heavy fine. The tax varies from three
shillings a year in the country districts to
fifteen shillings in the large towns.—St.

Tobacco in Persia.
Tobacco is indulged in to an incredible
extent. It is mostly gptoked in Persian
water pipes (ghalyan). If the tobacco is
of the Shiraz brands it is very good, but
Strong; and the Persian smoker will smoke
so many pipe? a day—often forty to fifty
—as to be in a “estate of happiness,’’
called “keff,” early in the afternoon.
This means a species oi narcosis
on by their peculiar manner of smoking,
that is, inhaling the smoke, allowing it
to penetrate the lungs, and then letting it
escape by the nose and ears. As tobacco
is excessively cheap and time no object
to the average Persian, this variety of
dissipation is the most prevalent one, and
one net forbidden by the Koran either.
While the “keff” lasts the pupils of the
eyes are dilated, and a sort of drowsy in
difference to all outside objects seems to
pervade the smoker. A curious fact in
connection with the use of tobacco in
Persia is the manner in which its solace
is provided by venders in the streets to
all passers by. Cigars are not sold there,
but the venders, each carrying a goodly
supply of pipes and tobacco with him, are
plentiful. For two cents anybody can sit
down in the street and smoke a well filled
ghalyan. This takes him about thirty
minutes to do.—The Cosmopolitan.
Peculiarities of the Swordfish,
When excited. Professor Goode says,
the swordfish’s motions are most quick
and nervous. The fish are sometimes seen
to leap entirely out of the water. Tlie
pointed head, the fins on the back and
abdomen simply fitting into grooves, the
absence of ventrals, the long, lithe, mus
cular body, sloping slowly to the tail, fit
it for the most rapid and forcible move
ment through the water. It strikes with
the accumulated force of fifteen double
headed hammers. Its velocity is equal to
that of a swivel shot and is as dangerous
in its effects as a heavy artillery projec
tile. Many very curious instances are on
record of the encounters of this fish with
other fishes, or of their attacks ny on
ships. What can be the incta ceaien £ f or
it to attack ob.i^ts so much larger than
itself jg hard to surmise. It surely
seems as if a temporary insanity some
times takes possession of the fish. An old
swordfisherman told Mr. Blackford that
his vessel had been struck twenty times.
There are, however, many instances of
entirely unprovoked assault on vessels at
sea.—New York Mail and Express.
The Italians of Philadelphia.
Tlie Italians of Philadelphia are almost
entirely of the lower class. The chief
occupations by which these people gain a
livelihood are rag picking, street cleaning,
vending fruits and nuts and grinding
so called music out of wheezy hand organs.
An early riser will see the rag pickers out
at break of day with bags and iron hooks,
prodding into ash and garbage barrels,
turning the contents over carefully and
selecting what they want with the air of
a connoisseur, and to tell what they leave
would be easier than to enumerate the
articles they stow away within the folds
of their bags. The street cleaners, too,
are out and hard at work at daybreak,
doing tasks and enduring wrongs no
American would undergo at any price.
The fruit dealers and the organ grinders
appear on the scene about 7 o’clock and
a day’s work for them ends about 11 at
night.
The Italian is a hard worker and con
tent with small pay, two facts which
make him very popular with contractors.
There is no idleness tolerated in their
households. While the husband is gather
ing rags the wife is tending a fruit stand
or selling trinkets from door to door.
The boys who are large enough are fur
nished with a “kit” and become boot
blacks, while the smaller brothers add
their mite to the general fund by gather
ing cigar stumps from the gutter.—Phila
delphia Times.
Watch Dags for Sentry Duty.
One of the latest freaks of military sci
ence is the training of watch dogs for
sentry duty. The French war minister
has given orders that dogs shall be tried
in connection with advance post duty and
taught to bark at the approach of an
enemy or stranger. Dogs are also to be
used as scouts, and if they prove useful
they are to be attached to all the line reg
iments and stationed regularly with the
double sentries. “Letting loose tlie dogs
of war” thus promises to have a literal
us well as a metaphorical meaning.—New
York Tribune.
Diseases Which Follow Anger.
In diseases of the heart, anger is a
potent agency of evil. If death does not
occur from a sudden, intense shock, the
organ is enfeebled by every fit of passion.
In persons of a plethoric habit and given
to excesses in eating, and in those in
whom the coats of the blood vessels of
the brain have been weakened by degen
erative changes, anger increases the
danger of apoplexy. A variety of other
diseases is liable to follow immoderate
anger; among them may be mentioned
paralysis, epilepsy and hysteria. Anger,
or violent or ungovernable temper, as it
is sometimes expressed, holds, according
to the reports of the different lunatic
asylums both in Europe and America, a
prominent place among the causes of
insanity.—Good Housekeeping.
Pipes of All Nations.
One of the most valuable collections of
pipes in the world belongs to Capt.
Bragge, of London. It contains 5,000
specimens and is called by the captain
“Pipes of all nations.” There are in it
many pipes found in American mounds.
Tlie collection is so complete that it com
prises the common as well as the most
richly carved pipes that have ever been
manufactured. There is no nation or
tribe of whose workmanship in the mak
ing of pipes he has not a specimen. The
captain is very proud of his collection,
and lias frequently put it on exhibition
in the Alexandra palace for charitable
purposes.—New York Evening Sim.
A Woman’s, Discovery. •
“Another wonderful discovery has

this county. Disease fastened its
clutches upon ner fiqid for seven years
she withstood its severest tests, but her
vital organs were undermined and
death seemed nnqainent. For three
months she cough'ed incessantly and
could not sleep. She bought of us a
bottle oi I)r. King s Xeiv Discovery for
Consumption and \vas so much relieved
on taking first dost? that she slept all
night and with one bottle has been mi
raculously cured. Her name is Mrs.
