If the conclusion concerning hypno-
tism reached by the Medico-Legal con-
gress at it's recent annual meeting is
correct hypnotism isn't what it has
been cracked up to be by the writers
of weird tales and the takers of weird
talk The conclusion was that notwith-
standing his apparent loss of conscious
ness, person in the hypnotic state is
perfectly conscious of what he is doing.
He will attempt to obey the suggestions
so long as they do not shock his moral
nature or his sense of propriety, and so
long as obedience seems to him physic-
ally possible, but he will go not one step
farther. Suggestions that seriously af-
front his moral nature will, If persisted
in, merely cause him to awaken. In
every hypnotic subject there remains
the auto-suggestion capable of meeting
and repelling repugnant suggestions
from the operator. That is to say, he
conscience cannot be hypnotized. The
hypnotized subject is as free to follow
the dictates of his conscience as he is in
his waking state. He remains morally
responsible for his acts. Given GRIM
inal or immoral subject and a criminal
or immoral operator, criminal or i'm
moral results may be obtained through

collar finishes the neck and the re
naming trimming consists of quipure
lace collar with square epaulettes over
the shoulders, and a cream satin ribbon
belt and collar with rosettes.
Belts are often finished in front with
widespread and stiffened loops From
back of each loop hangs a long end,
and the loops are separated so widely
that the ends hang down well to either
side of the front The apparent slen-
derness of the waist is emphasized by
placing at either side of the front bow
of ribbon, each bow with one long loop
laid fiat against the figure and extend
ing towards the bust line Another
and shorter loop sets closely just below
the belt and then long end hangs free
to the knee, or to the hem of the dress
The current liking for what may be
called a touch of the perpendicular can
come from a floating sash end or a
scarf effect, or can be attained by strap
ping of seams from belt to hem along
the skirt.

"A fashionable audience in Paris re-
Gently listened to a lecture on chemistry
by a celebrated chemist. At the con-
clusion Of the lecture lady and gentle
man who were among the first to leave
the hallha reached open air, when the
lady caught her escort staring at her.
"What is the matter?" asked the mad
anne, in surprise. Pardon me, but you
are quite blue!" The lady returned to
che hall and approached a mirror. She
started back in horror. The rouge
upon her cheeks had been converted in
to beautiful blue by the chemical
decomposition which had taken place
under the influence of the gases which
had been generated during the lecture.
The majority of the women in the au-
dience had suffered in a similar manner.
There were all sorts of colors-blue,
yellow, violet and black. Some whose
vanity had induced them to put ivory
on the skin, coral on the lips, rouge on
the cheeks and black on the eyebrows
had undergone ludicrous transforma-
tion.

The California vintage of 1895 is now
practically over, and the quantity and
quality of this seasons Wine product can
be accurately estimated. AS whole
the crop of grapes was light, but the
quality was the best in many years.
There was a. shortage in the dry va
rieties, but great abundance of the sweet
kinds. The output of dry wines will be
about 100000 gallons, something like
rs per cent. of last years production.
Of this amount only 100000 gallons are
of white wine. Taking all Circumstance
es into consideration, it is predicted that
higher prices will be asked for Califor-
mia wines this season than last.
