HYPNoTIsM, OR WHATp
Miss Bessie's Singular Experience in
Church.

Church music has a strange effect upon
the sensibilities of Miss Bessie Ayres' or
Evanston. During the Sunday service az
the First Congregational church In that
suburb Miss Ayres was completely hypno-
tized by the strains Of the organ, and she
finally went into n hypnotic trance from
which she was resuscitated with great dr.
fculty Miss Ayres was sitting in the
center Of the church, and her peculiar ac-
lions created the greatest excitement
As soon as the strains of the organ were

Suddenly the blood left Miss Ayres's face

"Yes. But do not exert yourself.
Try to sleep"
He crossed the room and closed the
green wooden blinds; he gave an order
to Stefanio, and dipped his hands in
disinfecting fluid; then he sat down
and took up book. But he could not
read. He saw before him that blanche6,
frightened face, which little while be-
fore had been raised to his as the voice
Of Veronica had cried to him: ''Save
him! You will save him? You have SO
much knowledge, SO much power. You
will save him for my sake.'
He had promised her nothing; he had
only said briefly, in the language of
people who were fools, that the issue
of life and of death was in the hands of
Deity. He had promised her nothing;
in his own way he was sincere. Up to
| that time he had done everything
which science and experience could
suggest to combat the disease.
lie called in q second medical man Of
the town and two sisters of charity to
replace Stefanio, who grew alarmed
for his own safety and would no longer
approach the bed.
Send for my mother" said Andreis,
in his choked voice.
Certainly" answered his friend; but
Damer telegraphed only to the Andrcis'
palace in Palermo, and he knew that it
was unlikely she would be in that city
in the summer heats Of the end C..
June
1t might be forwarded or it might
not; Italian households are careless in
such matters.
The disease which had fastened on
Andreis was not one which waits. But
when he murmured once and again.
'Send for my mother" Damer could,
with clear conscience, reply: 81 have
telcgraphed.
The day wore into night, and the
night waned into dawn. All the ami
nation of Venetian life began again to
awake with the whirr OF the pigeons
taking their sunrise flight from dome
and cupola and pinnacle and gutter.
To the sisters of charity their patient
seemed better; to the surgeons of the
city also; Damer said nothing.
Andreis drew his pencil and paper tc
him and wrote feebly: "Veronica?"
Damer read the name.
"She came to see you an hour or two
ago." he answered. "But I could not
allow it. Your illness is infectious"
He spoke in his usual brief, calm. in
different manner. Andreis sighed, but
it was sigh of content; he was half
asleep; he turned on his pillows and
drew the little note which he had hidden
under them once more against his
cheek.
HE will sleep himself WELL" said the
nun.
Let US hope so," replied Damer; but
she heard from his tone that he did not
share her belief.
It was now eleven o'clock.
$50 and rest" he said to her. "You
need it. 1 and his servant will watch
tonight. If there be any necessity l
will summon you"
"Will his mother soon be here?"

One can but admire the pluck displayed
by Secretary McKeen. of the board of
agriculture, in his treatment of the men
who he believes are working against the
best interests of Maine dairying. The
threats nor even the suits that have been

in the least His latest is a small pamphlet
which has been sent broadcast over the
State. 1t contains extracts from various
sources in this State and elsewhere concern
Ing the methods adopted uy tiiese western

what has appeared to be his duty in this

He lit a candle and approached the

not speak.

anxiously.
Perhaps" re replied. eff there be

She went, nothing 10th, to her supper
and her bed. Damer was alone with
the man who trusted him and whose
mother trusted him.
"Man cannot control circumstances, i"
he thought, but the wise man can
assist circumstances, the fool does not. -
Once it had suited him to save that
young mans life; now it suited him to
end it.
One action was as wrong or as right
eous as the other. 1t was an exercise
of power, as when the monarch grants
an amnesty or signs death warrant.
Who blames the monarch who does but
use his power? The prerogative of SUI

rogative of monarch
His professional conscience would
have shrunk from giving the disease,
but it did not shrink from making death
certain where it was merely possible.
He did but add a stronger poison to that
which nature had already poisoned.
Men slew their rivals in duels and no
one blamed them; who should blame
him because he used the finer weapon
of science instead of the coarser weapon
of steel? He did but carry out the doc
trine of the laboratory to its just and
logical sequence.
What he felt for Veronica was not
love, but passion, and not passion
alone, but the sense of dominion. He
knew that the fair creature shranlS
from him, bat submitted to him. All
the intense instructive tyranny of his
nature longed to exercise itself on her,
the beautiful and patrician thing, SO
far above him, SO fragile and SO fair.
He knew that he would never possess
her or command her except THROUGH
fear; but this would suffice to him.
