SCIENCE STARTLES US.
How Hypnotism Is Made to Help the
Deaf and Dumb,

It was from tho great New York Insti-
tuition For tho Instruction of the Deaf and
Dumb that the world first learned how an
individual born deaf and consequently
dumb could be taught to hear and speak,
and now comes another discovery promis-
ing to be the greatest of all.
Professor Currier openly asserts over
his own signature that he is willing that
hypnotism shall be given full opportu-
nifty to demonstrate what can be done
through its agency toward the RELIEF OF
the mute. He declares it to be his belief
that wonders of which the most enthusi-
astic investigator has hardly dared to
dream may be accomplished through the
uso Of hypnotism, and, bold and progress
sive student as he is, is willing to afford
every facility for skilled operator to OK
pertinent on the line suggested.
Professor Currier almost took my breath
away, says a writer in the Boston Herald
when, as l sat in his study at the insti-
tuto looking out upon the Hudson, he an
nounced it to be his belief that through
the agencies of hypnotism n man who has
been deaf from the day of his birth may
be made to hear distinctly.
1.-The prophet of the Israelites spoke
truly" said Professor Currier, when he
predicted thousands of years ago the COM
ing of the day when the eyes of the blind
shall be opened, the ears of the deaf shall
be unstopped, the tongue of the dumb
shall be Embossed and the lame be made
to run and leap as an hart. My friend,
this day is at hand. 1t is already here.
Gradually a force in nature-a force first
Knocked and ridiculed, next wondered at,
now studied and made useful-bas been
accepted by science. And now is heralded
the news that through hypnotism the Ia
tent senses are to be made healthy and
vigorous, and the nerves which from birth
our ignorance has hitherto allowed to
slumber in him who, through some defect
in natures processes, has been unable to
operate them, are to be made to convey
messages of the mind as electric wires
convey messages. -

work and feel like new woman.
81 advise everyone who is sick or ailing
to try Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and

derful power to cure, as l have BEEN"
Thousands of people are today in pre-
dicament more or less like that of Mrs.
Dyer. They may not be so seriously sick
as she was, but they may come even to a
worse condition, if they allow tn cir pres
ent ailments and weaknesses to run on.
Nine times out of ten the great prostra-
tons of health the breaking down of mind
and body, the utter wreck and shattering
of these delicate fibres which send weakness
and despair throbbing and shivering
through unstrung nerves, are traceablc
directly to the neglect of the first slight
and apparently trivial symptoms.
If you would save yourselves from the
black night of sickness, the hopelessness
of despair do not allow the first symp-
toms, the dizzy, aching head, the ner
vousness, the restlessness, the sleepless-
ness, the utter weakness of weary days
and hours, to continue for one moment
when you know that DR.. Grecne's Ncr-
vura blood and nerve remedy will surely
cure you-will surely make you strong

People wonder, sometimes, why
it is that the Carlsbad treatment,
the worlds remedy for habitual
constipation, should be recon-
mended for diarrhea and such
disorders, too. Simply, because
it leads the stomach and bowels
naturally into healthy condi-
ton, whatever their derange-
ments-it doesn't accomplish its
results by harmful irritation, as
most pills and purgatives do.

This memorial was prepared by lady

the desire was expressed Mt that con gress

GAMBLING IN ITALY.
It Il Widespread and Brings the Govern
mcnt 90, OOO, 900 Year.

ment 90, 100000 Year.
In Italy there are many highly moral
laws against gambling, but the govern
ment is responsible for system Of state lot
teries which encourages widespread gam
bling among the people.
The published statistics show average
receipts of over $40, 00e, 900 year.
Every Saturday afternoon the lottery is
drawn in the. eight principal towns of
Italy, and there are government lottery
offices in every town and village, where
tickets may be takers for any of the eight
lotteries in the kingdom. A village may
be too small to have a postofiice, but 1t
will be pretty sure to have lottery office.
The method of stalking in the lottery Is
T. select from one to four numbers and to
stake what you please upon them Mt the
nearest lottery office.
You may bet on one number, and If 1t Is
one of the five drawn in the lottery you
receive ~ = times your stake. Or you may
bet that it will be drawn either first, sec.
ond, third, fourth or fifth in the order of
drawing. In this case you get 90 times
your stake if you win.
Another plan is to take two numbers
and back what is called the ambo. If both
you get 800 times your stake. If you
choose three numbers, which is called
terno, and they all come out, you win
5000 times your stake.
If you back four numbers, called qua
derno you win 60, 600 times your stake.
The method most in vogue among tho
peasants is to take three numbers and in
vest small sum on tho terno and on
each of the ambos contained in 1t. A
PEASANTS weekly investment ranges be-
tween cents and 10 cents. As little as
four fftbs of cent may be staked.
All kinds of omens are consulted to ar
rive at the lucky numbers Dreams are
great favorites, and inspirations are drawn
from any great national event.
For instance, when Victor Emmanuel
died, the tip was to play the number of
his age. the number of the year of his
birth and tho number of the day of tho
month on which he died. Thousands of
people backed this terno, and, oddly
enough, it actually came out.
A few weeks late Pope Plus TX died
The samo game was played on the num-
bers relating to his death, and again the
terno came out
OF course the government lost great
deal of money on these occasions, but it
would soon get it back again by the add
tional impulse given to the gambling by
the news of these winnings
