Another remarkable plant has recent
ly been added to the long list of botan-
ical curiositics, NJ. Carrera, deputy of
Oaxaca, having taken to tho City of
Mexico plant which is known to grow
only in MiXteca, called the "herb of
prophecy" by the natives. Devotees of
this weed take it much in the same man.
ncr that cocoa leaves are taken by those
addicted to the habit. In few mo-
ments after dose of it has been taken
q sleep is produced similar in all re-
spects to, and, it might be said, identi-
cal with, the hypnotic state. When un-
der its influence the sleeper Is complete
ly insensible, but will answer with
closed eyes all questions put to him. 1t
is further said of this wonderful plant
that the pathologic state induced on
whomsoevcr partakes of the herb brings
with it kind of prophetic gift and sec
ond-sight. One who has taken this
herb loses his will oven moro complete
ly than does tho person who is in tho
hypnotic state, and is SO thoroughly I'M

he has done when IN the trance.
