COMMUNICATING OCCULT INFLUENCES.
This was very kind, but my joy became
full when Niles Winnie Whitman Wheeler
became my patient. Winnie was a youth
ful poetess, but she differed from the rest
of them in that she vas pretty and well
dressed. She came to Ely Office accom-
panied by an aunt OF comfortable propoI-
tons, who went TO sleep in my large arm
chair, as soon az | began TO talk about
"beliefs of disease" and the unhealthy of
consumption, Group, whooping cough, and
other uncomfortable but widespread de-
~lusions. 1t appeared that the poetess bad
a "belief of gentle melancholy" 1t at
tackled her in the evening as she gazsd
upon the mellow hues Of the sun
set, and other natural phenomena. |
asked if it had ever broken ont on her
anywhere, and she replied that it hadn't,
but that in the early spring she had suf-
fered from a cough which annoyed her for
fully two days and greatly frightened her
aunt. She feared thu. she must be going
into a decline. 1 mentally observed that
she was the healthiest creature on the
face of the foot-Stool, bat my newly
awakened professional instinct told me
that she would make n good patient. l
stole a glance at the aunt who continued
to sleep at the rate of forty miles an hour;
and then suggested that We begin treat
ment at once.
"You fear a belief Of consumption, " said
I. 'Now, you must sit right down by me
until you are convinced that there is no
such thing as consumption in the world"
So we cuddled mp in a nice broad win
dow seat and proceeded to put our minds
on the subject before US.
"The best way to do it," said /, lis to
think of something wholly different.
There is also aegood deal in personal iDflu-
ence OF an occult nature which will ex-
plain another time. Suppose you give me
your hand-that way; thanks! Now we
will talk of social matters. What IS the
season going to be like in W this
year ?"
A conversation followed which would
have been animated but for the danger OF
waking the chapsrone. Certainly both Of
us succeeded in removing q minds from
all thought Of sickness or sorrow. As for
me, my mind was getting very much con-
centrated on the soulful creature by my
side, when, suddenly her aunt woke up,
and,I was obliged 10 discontinue the occult
influences which had previously been
growing rather material in places.
'Oh, aunty, l feel better already" she
said, sweetly; while l nearly had Mysteries
for joy.
'You had better come again day after
Tomorrow" said /, in the calmest tone L
could muster.
They came on the day appointed and
many times afterward. / was greatly
interested in the patient, but the somno-
lence of her aunt was q belief" which /
took care not to eradicate. Everything
worked we'll until one evening when some
malign individual saw Us sitting in the
window in the cleaning, hand in hand as
usual. She was pointing to q fleecy GRIM
son cloudlet, with a yellow border, scol-

l am almost too modest to relate the Sc
quel, but the solemn fact is that the next
day my Office was crowded with all the
old maids of the neighborhood who we're
able to get oct Of the house, and the 9th
ers sent delicate notes requesting me to
call as soon as convenient, as they were
much in need of my treatment. In the
presence of this venerable collection of
fashion plates from the back numbers Of
forgotten ladies magazines" l stood
sghast. Their manner left no doubt that
the sudden boom in business was due to the
ipjudiciou5 advertisement Of the pre-
cedipg evening. How in the name of all
the martyrs was l to stand an hour in the
cleaning with each of them? Was l eX-
pected to pose in the usual window before
which | realized that > crowd would now
regularly assemble? These and a hundred
other narrowing questions rushed through
my mind. Then with a sudden resolution
| made appointments with them all, and
prepared to escape from the town, under
the shadow of the coming night. .
