LI.HUNG CHANG.

Oh, Li-Hung-Chang was wonderful
man,
And he lived in the land of tea
You have seen him pictured on many
fan
Such wonderful man was he.
And peacock feathers he gravely wore,
And letters of state he wrote;
He was up in martial knowledge and lore
And they gave him a yellow coat.
An honor great in the land of Ching,
This omelet robe to wear.
But Li-Hung-Chang of whom sing,
He really did not care.
Off he went on royal spree,
And whooped things up sky-high;
He sailed about on the blue Yalee
And drank of the Chinese rye.
And they gathered his peacock feathers in
And they took his coat away;
They disregarded his loud "chin-chin,"
Because he had got too gay.
Deep he smokes till the air grows dim,
But he feels not single pang;
Little indeed, II matters to him,
For still he is Li-Hung-C Chang

JOHANNA WAGNER
Death Of the Famous Prima Donna and
Tragic Actress.


Tragic Actress.
Foreign papers bring word of the re-
cent death in Germany of Johanna
Wagner, niece of Richard Wagner. She
was born at Hanover, Oct. 1S, 1928, and
was the daughter of Albert Wagner, q
dramatic tenor. He married Elise Coll
man, whose voice, of the abnormal
compass of three octaves and two notes,
was one of the wonders of her time.
In her very short career she is said to
have sung the parts of Tancredi and
of the Queen Of Night with equal full
ness of tone. The daughter of Elsie
Goldman Wagner even surpassed her
mother in reputation.
Richard Wagner and his brother, AL
bert, lived together in Wurzburg dur
ing the year 1888. Johanna, then only
5 years old, sang everything she heard
and her uncle, in after years, would
often quote her childish version of the
words of operas.
In 1859 she married Herr Landrath
Jachmann, and two years later had the
misfortune to lose her voice suddenly
and completely. She then bravely en-
tered upon second artistic career as
an actress, her exceptional gifts ena-
bling her to do so with brilliant sue
cess. This lasted for eleven years at
the same theater at Berlin. Her new
repertoire included Marie Stuart,
Queen Elizabeth, Lady Macbeth, Anti
gone, Phaedra, Isabella C'Bride of Mes
sina'), Maid of Orleans, Hermione,
Medea, Sappho, etc.

sphere, and the physical results of the
sudden transition are manifest to many
persons. To the writer, this difference
was perceptible rather on the side of
rarity in ascending. A certain degree
of difficulty in filing the lungs was eX-
perienced as the third platform was
reached. A gentleman occupying a seat
in the left of me, however, was some

utterance to sharp exclamation of

While they were lost to him he eX-

that they had formerly existed, but

doubt whatever of his honesty.
An equally curious experiment fire.
quently tried is to tell a subject that
upon awaking a certain object will be
invisible. If the object chosen is per-
son it is well to suggest that they will
be neither seen, heard nor felt. If this
We're not done the voice or touch of the
invisible person might give the subject
a severe fright, or even drive him into
hysteria.
Nervousness and Hysteria.
These abnormal conditions of the
mind soon fade, and disappear of their
own accord, as rule. 1t is always
safest, however, to rehypnotize the sub
ject and restore him to a natural condi-
tion by suggestion.
The mention of hysteria brings up q
point which is well for the novice to re-
member. Nervous persons often be
come hysterical when in the hypnotic
state. This is caused generally by
dreams, pleasant or otherwise; by the
sound of laughter, or loud talking. To
avoid this give the suggestion to sleep
soundly, but not to dream. Also to sleep
quietly. At the first sign of approach
ing hysteria suggestion will often serve
to quiet the subject. If, however, he
refuses to be quieted, and becomes real
ly hysterical, the only course left is to
awaken him as quickly as possible.
The hypnotist must at all times re-
| member that he can do anything at all
with good subject, if the proper sug-
gestions are given. He should watch
the subject closely while hypnotized
and at the least sign of pain or discom-
fort correct 1t without delay. The sub,
ject will believe implicitly anything he
says and he should always insist upor
every suggestion made being carried
out to the letter
| This Is too broad a subject to attempt
laying down all the rules which coulc
be catalogued. Experience and obser
walton will readily teach the best meth
cd of handling any particular subject
1t is well to keep in mind the goot
which may be done through past hyp
motto suggestion. Headache, or, in fact
almost any mild pain or discomfort viii
readily yield to its influence. BY re
peated suggestion, day after day, habits
may be formed or broken. There Is al
most no limit to its application.
