Hypnotism is now regarded as a cure
for the opium habit, and prominent
physician of Washington whose name
would be instantly recognized, gave a
New Yorker the other day an interesting
exhibition Of his power over opium
takers He has under his care several
brother physicians who have given way
to the habit. One feature of his method
is to pat the patient into the hypnoXic
state and prescribe a small dose of his
favorite drug to- be taken some hours
later. When the time 10 take the dose
arrives the patient is himself again, but
he rigidly follows the prescription. In
this way the amount of tn, dose is slow
ly lessened and the hold Of the habit
gradually broken.

The Gypsey Meth.

Ths Gypsy moth that has secured

threatens to become one of the great
pests Of the day. A writer in the
Scientific American of December 6,
says: 1 have quite little experiences
with the pest, as IN the rear Of my
premises ara three or four large sp-
pie trees which have been wholly uu-
s'red for by the owner, and the tsnt
caterpillar and gypsey worm have
held high carnival there until every
ve.tiEe of grasn has disappeared
After devastating my neighbor's $
tress, they marched in nyrsids for
my premises, fairly covering the
feuces, houses, outbuildings, grass
land, currant bIshes, and concrete
drive-ways with their trosping bat
talious. l Immediately tasked tar
saeathins paper around every one of
my trees, and keep the paper well
coated with printers ink, If care Is
taken 10 make frequent application
of 1t. Experience, the best of teach
era, proves it. During the past week
or ten days l have personally attend
ed to the mater, and have killed
millions of gyps.y worms, which
have conGregated below the paper on
my trees. The trees nearest Iay

The Alliance Platform.

The following - the platform
adopted by the Farmers Alliance
convention in Florida last week:
Q) We demand the abolition ot
national banks. We demand that
the Government shall establish sub
treasures or repositories III the
several States which shall loan money
direct to the people at low rate OF
interest, not to exceed two per cent.
per snnum, on on-per;shsb.e farm
products, and also upon real estate
with proper limitations upon the
quantity Of land and amount Of
money. We demand that the amount
of the circulating medium be speedily
increased to not less than $50 per
capita.
(2) We demand that Congress shall
pass such laws az shall effectualiy
prevent the dealing IN futures on ali
agricultural and mechanical product
ions; preserving n stringent system
OF procedure in trials such AS shall
secure the prompt conviction and the
imposition Of such penalties as shal
secure the most perfect compliance
with the law.
81 We condemn the Silver bill
recently passed by Congress, and
demand in lieu thereof the free and
unlimited coinage of silver.
az We demand the passage OF laws
prohibiting alien ownership of land,
and that Congress take prompt
astion to devise some plan to obtain
all lands now owned by aliens and
foreign syudicases, and that sll lands
now held by railroads and other cor
porations in excess Of such rs Ia act
uslly used and nesded by them be
rSclimsd the Government and held
fer actual settlers only.
(5) Belie,eing in the doctrine Of

in the future as not to build up one
industry at the expense Of smother;
and We furtuer demand . removal Of

demand iast and equitable system
Of graduated tax on incomes We
believe that the money of the country
should be kept as much as possible
In the hands of the people, and hence
we demand that al national and
State revenues shall be limited to the
