after a couple Of days sickness at her home
on Forty-Three-and-Half street, Seven
teenth ward. The case appeared on q SUPER
fetal examination TO be death from natural
causes, but careful examination by doc
tors showed that death was due to infamma-
tion Of the stomach, caused by the introduc-
tion into IL OF poison. This discovery led
the Coroner to 90 into careful and thor
ough examination OF the case. In looking
about for evidence he found box Of rough
on rats in the alley beneath the dead girls
house and also a young lady named Miss
Alice Rimer who said that Mrs. Eckert had

'I have never known q man." says DR..
Joshua Thorne, in the st. Louis Globe
Democrat, "who gave hypnotism proper
study who could not master the science.
For my own part, can hypnotize about five
out of every ten men and eight out of every
ten women I try. and do SO without any
difficulty. OF course I cannot say what
force really puts people TO sleep and tenn
porarily suspends certain of their bodily
and mental functions, but know of my
own knowledge and from my own long ex-
perience that there is no miraculous transfer
OF anything from one body to another.
Something shining on which the sight can
be riveted helps to send the subject off.
As to hypnotism being resorted to by
smart thieves and others to get victims into
their power, think there has been great
deal of eIaggeration. 1t is next to impossi-
BILE to get well man under control without

hypnotized him. Then you can put up
