Things That Affect the Hypnotic state.

Things That Affect the Hypnotic state.
The differences III the climates appear
10 hav" great influence on hypnotic sus-
ceptibilty. Southerners and altorethcr.
those who have been exposed to the
tropical heat are much more easily in
fucnc"d than those who live in the tenn
lerate or frigid zones. Hypnosis not
only appears sooner in the tropical eli
mates. but it is usually deeper, and the
more complicated conditions Of the
states invariably appear immodiatelv.
The hypnotic susceptibility does not de-
pend on these circumstances alone.
There are many other conditions which
we must find partly outside of the indi-
vidual and partly within. 1t is neces-
sary to especially notice the different
tempcrs Of mind, such as delight. sor-
row. etc.
What also works against coming into
the hypnotic state is Overexertion, either
mentally or bodily. an empty or over
loaded stomach, excessive use Of certain
noHrlsl1n@ substances, liquors, strong
coffee or tea. All these condi-
tlons more or less prevent or disturb the
coming hypnosis. Furthermore. out
ward influences, such as temperature.
dress, place Of residence and surround
lnSs, should all be considered. The
room IN which experiments are to be
performed must neither be too warm nor
coid.--Chicago Herald.

THE KELLEY INSTITUTE
Twelve Years of Established Merit !
NOTE OF WARNING !
TO THE PUBLIC:

DWIGHT, ILL.,, April so, 1892.
As a matter of Justice to ourselves and tc
the reputation OF Dr.. Leslie, +. Kelley
Double Chloride of Gold remedies, for the
cure of the liquor, opium, morphine and
tobacco diseases and Neurasthenia, we warn
the public that these remedies are used by
no institution or sanitarium in the United
States except those established by ouL COM
pany under the uniform name of "The
Kelley Institute"
All others claiming to use our romedie,
are frauds and imposters.
We have now sixty Kelley Institutes es-
tablished in various parts of the United
States where the Kelley treatment is adj
ministered and the Kelley remedies sold.
We, however, caution all to examine well
and know that they are dealing with genuine
representatives, authorized by us, before
taking the treatment or purchasing remedies.
The fraudulent establishments use the name
of "Bi-Chloride of Gold" or similar titles.
The newspapers do not discriminate sufi-
GENTLY to know that they are imitators, and
so put down all accidents occurring at such
establishments as being brought about by
the Kelley treatment. This is a matter of
much concern to us, hence this warning.
Respectfully yours,
THE LESLIE l.. KELLEY CO.
Curtis J. Judd, Sec'y and Treas.
The Kelley institute at Greensboro, y. c.,
is the only one in the state, and all repre-.
that there is in the state any cure
is identical with, or the same as. the
Double Chloride of Gold Cure are
malicious, false, and made for the purpose of
deceiving. We learn with indignant regret
such claim is being made, and feeling
that il it be hurtful to us it will prove more
to those who are deceived thereby,
we sound this warning.

Tea, by the way, is one of the most notori-

I alone are the bright, shiny green teas artif-

substitute for tea leaves are used to swell
the bulk Of cheap teas; ash, sloe, and willow
leaves being those most commonly used.
again, sweepings from tea warehouses are
coiored and sold as tea. Even exhausted tea
leaves gathered from the tea houses are kept,
dried, and made over and fnd their way into

The English government attempts to stamp

Years ago, when Plumb was poor an(
comparatively unknown man, be iount
himself in Lawrence, Kan. There he
heard Of a man who in miserable dug
out on The prairies was dviug Of snail.
pox, alone and without the bcneft Of c.
ther clergy or doctor
SMALLPOX was then more dreaded thar
it is now, and when his ncighbors knew
what was the matter with him they lice
for their lives and refused to go near him
Mr. Plumb heard the story and wa:
moved by it. 1t seemed incredible to hin
that q man should be allowed to die III this
way. He went to the Superintendent o.
tic Poor and urged him to take some ac'
ton in the matter. The superintendent
was as much afraid Of the scourgo as was
ever body else. His official eye were con-
vcniently closed to the case.
If friends of the sick man, lie said
would report the matter to him he would
investigate it, but until that was done nc
could not he expected to run round look.
ing for dying men.
Mr.. Plumb was disgustcd, but more de-
tern. ined than ever to do whatever was
possible for the man, Of whom until that
day he had never heard, and whom he had
never seen.
He happened to remember that abOu,
twenty miles from Lawrence lived fami,
ly that were acquaintances of his. He
hired buggy and drove to their farm.
house, explained the situation to them
and offered to pay them if they would take
care Of the patient. They greed to this
and the next day the farmers big wagon
carried the poor fellow to where some
kind OF comfort and attention awaited
him.
Plumb himself stayed with him for some
days attending him as faithfully as if the
man had been his brother. Then the flu
turc Senator went about his business, hui
in short time he was down with small.
pox and came very near dying.
Plumb recovered, although the scars OF
his face remained to tell of his heroisn
and humanity.
The man who WAS rescued by Plumb al.
so recovered. He prospered and was sem
to the Legislature. He never forgot tha
it was Plumb to whom he owed his life
and when Plumb name was first mention
ed for The Senate this man worked early
and late for him.
He told his associates the story, and i
did as much as any thing to elect Plumb
TO the United States Senate.
