A FORTUNATE DISCOVERY.
PROF. FARRAND SAID TO HAVE FOUND
POSITIVE CURE FOR ASTHMA
AND HAY FEVER.

Among the few really eminent bOtan-
lists of America. Prof. Farrand of YER
mont easily stands in the front rank, and
Il discovery that he has recently made
will do much to add to his fame. In his
journeys to different parts Of the country
TO gather medicinal herbs. roots and
harks for the leading American and
European pharmacists, he has naturally
spent much time in the Adirondack
regions, that health-givng resort for
consumptives, asthmatics. and all suf-
ferers from respiratory diseases. Here
hay fever is unknown. asthmatics
breathe freely, and even cOnsumptives
conquer their racking cough in the brac-
ing forest air.
Prof. Farrand became impressed with
the idea that the herbs and leaves which
fill the Adirondack air with aromatic
healing could be gathered by him and
sent to the homes of sufferers who can.
not afford the time or money to 90 away.
His great botanical knowledge and prac-
tical acquaintance with the medicinal
values of all plants peculiarly fitted him
for his task.
He found a happy combination that
gave the peculiar fragrance of the Adj
rOndack woods, and samples were sent
, W. Npi i'h' SNi h'i9Ao 'li'A lNhAihS pay
clans, the professor calling it the Adj
rOndack Asthma Cure. Seventy-three
per cent of the cases in which it was
used, some OF them seemingly hopeless,
reported cure, while in all the Others
great benefit was derived.
The different herbs and barks that are
used by Prof. Farrand in the Adirondack
asthma cure have to be gathered at GER
tain seasons of the year, when their med
icinal value is at its height, and he was
able to get but limited amount. As
long as this quantity lasts. it is offered tC
the public generally by the DR.. Howard
Co., Burlington, VT, who will mail d
large sized box for fifty cents. They do not
want pay from those whom this prepara
ton does not cure. and will return the
money to any whom the Adirondack
Asthma Cure fails to benefit. One of the
peculiar advantages of this cure, which
will make it seem godsend to the asth
matte or hay fever sufferer, is that the
user awalles as refreshed and bright il
the morning as if he had actually slep
in the invigorating air of the Adiron
dacks. Send fifty cents at once to the
/ DR.. Howard Co., Burlington. VT, ant
cure a disease that so often brings the
sufferer near to deaths door. and ye
allows him to live to suffer again anC
again.

HYPNoTlsM AND CRIME.
lRev. NJ. j. Savage in the Boston Globe

Rev. NJ. J. Savage in the Boston Globe.l
There is no proof that any person can
be hypnotized against his will. This is
true, Notwithstanding sensational stories
to the contrary. 1t is true. perhaps,
that weak person may be hypnOtized so
many times by one operator that prac-
tically he may lose control of whatever
individuality he ever had. Such per
son may be Influenced by suggestion,
even at a distance, as by letter from the
one accustomed to control. But is a man
not responsible, in the first place, for
giving himself over in that way, soul
and body, to the control of another?
If this plea of being hypnotized is
going to have legal recognition as an eX-
cuse for crime, will not the plea be false
ly made and so the door be opened to
endless frauds? Shall we not have the
Salem days back again-innocent people
punished on the false charge of having
mysteriously caused the crimes of
others?
Perhaps some who commit murder are
under the control of inherited tenden-
cies quite as strong as hypnotic sugges-
ton, and so are no more responsible than
are the ''victims" of hypnOtism.
1t is a large and largely unexplored
