 ssIn other words" continued the doc- tor, Tit is now quite possible to remove mental energy from one person, store it up, and then transfer it to another person after the lapse of as much or as little time as you choose. If the energy is that of happiness, then the person to whom it is transferred be- comes happy. The discovery is in its infancy yet, but it is destined, think, to be one of the most wonderful things in the world. See what it meansl You are n sufferer from that strange disease, melancholia.

Etou and zouave shapes becomingly, for there will be a considerable run upon fur garments in these cuts this autumn. Another popular fur garment will be the cape. either of fur entirely or of cloth with fur collar and second, shorter cape overlapping the longer one. Slim young women will find short, loose-fronted sealslzin coats recommended to them, but in longer garments both economy and the wish to avoid crushing weight will point to combinations of fur and cloth.
 A pelisse of black satin merveilleux is an example.
 It has Vatican folds in the back, is lined behind with rose and black bro- cade, but at the sides and in the front with squirrel lock. The square collar, like a Puritans neck bands, only broader, the inner collar coming close about the throat, and the cuffs are lined with mink.
 Sleeved or sleeveless, all fur garments have to be made roomy enough at the sides to shelter the big sleeves of the moment.
 Furs are sometimes continued, as in 8 cape of black Persian lamb with a shoulder cape edged with sable tails, and a cascade of these tails falling down the front, even below the hem. A coat and skirt costume of Persian lamb with ermine collar is another combination. May 1 humbly venture the opinion that neither of these is equal in good taste or beauty to the better combinations of velvet, cloth or satin with soft fur.

 Fur with an applique of velvet upon pale satin, in Paisley or Dresden de- signs, the satin shining beneath and between the velvet bars.

 Instantly saw what had occurred.

Within a week I had demonstrated the truth of my first theory beyond a possibility of doubt.

form one of the most bafi1ing of the mysteries of the science which prom ises to bring at once the greatest of ben efits and the greatest of dangers into modern society. But the usefulness of the discovery was at once apparent. No one thing is more important in the practice of medicine than diagnosis. Until doctor finds out what is really the matter with person it is, of course, impossible for him to properly treat that person. There are certain diseases especially some of the obscure nerv- ous complaints which seem to be the outgrowth of the present century which are very difficult to diagnose. Mistakes in diagnosis are made by the most careful physicians. But here, ap- parently, is a method which cannot fail. Apparently diseases may be expected in future to identify themselves to the person who is in a certain hypnotic state. Even the academy of medicine is Investigating it, and that means that the most conservative medical body in the world recognizes it's importance.
 And French scientists are looking into this matter also very gravely, dis cussing it as if it were one of the most important things of the time, as it doubtless is. It, too, has been consid- cred by the Academy of Medicine, and while that body has not yet sanctioned it as useful discovery, it still admits that it may become one, and has by no ueans rolegated it to the limbo to

Fur with rich green Lyons velvet, lined with old gold brocade. Fur in huge rolling collar, in a strip down the front on each side, in the tails and paws used as trimmings.
 Fur with jet, velvet, passementerie and lace, all in one garment!
 Winter will be worth while that shows us all these wonders of the street. Surely never before was a ma terial so dignifed and rich as fur used in combinations with such perishabie, delicate fabrics.
 Is 'silver-fox" offered? I have read of a dealer who says that less than two hundred silver foxes are taken in all the world in year, and that all these. practically, go to Russia to be worn by princesses A single skin is worth one hundred and thirty to three hundred dollars, and a fox is absurdly small. But dealers are enterprising. What will they do if the fur seal really be- comes extinct? Can the characteristic fur of this long suffering beast be imi- tated? I doubt if it has been yet, and for this reason seal is a pretty safe fur to buy.
 Green is Q good rich color, not quar- relsome against others, and a key to strong combinations. 4 chrysanthe- mum green cloth walking dress 1 have seen, which is a dream. The deep, square collar reveals a bit of mulberry velvet at the throat. The edging of the collar and of the cuffs is sable fur, and the tails are worked into the front of the bodice. The buttons are of sil- yer repousse, the skirt is lined with mulberry satin. The toque is of green cloth and mulberry chenille, vel vet roses of the mulberry hue, and an osprey's ravaged plumage It is the very soul of somber autumn, glowing at heart.
 What gown that would be for an autumn brides trousseaul The au- tumn bride demands her share of att tention and perhaps a little more. In actual wedding gowns there is-weu, the merest trife of change, hardly no- ticeable at a glance at the big sleeves, the medallion front, the long, plain, or lace edged train. The going-away gown and the brides reception and dinner gowns are quite otherwise, and usually represent the latest breath of fielxle fashion. Certainly this is the case with going away costume which l have been admiring in a friends trous- seau. The loose, plain bodice front buttons with big buttons, the skirt is plain, the material of all smooth. gray cloth. Over the blouse bodice, and over the big sleeves falls almost to the waist a triple cape with wide, embroi-

dered collar. Benea3h this piling of Pelion upon Ossa, the tightly cased arms from the elbow down look like pipestems. The return of the cape is calamity 10 most figures; but it cer- talnly has returned.
 l should have said that this fashion, able in the extreme garment was crowned by a hat which can only be described as an hour glass crown on very wide brim, with huge plumes and bows, all in black The steeple crown is robbed of it's full effect by the wide brin, reminding one of the contendinr and mutually nullifying principles of Ornuzd and Abriman.
 And speaking of hats, 1t may be we'll to add that the steeple crown. thop0b quite advisable, Is to be by no means common. Far more usual is the hat with no crown at all, or the mere faint indication of one, scarce rising from ite enormous brim.
 For the brims are enormous. A tiny elose-ftting crown, shallow as as aueer. insecurely supports a structure two feet wide over all and with an enor- nous sail area. Cocks plumes, ostrich feathers, steel or rhinestone ornaments. velvet and satin Dresden ribbon are in favor as garnishes.
 As to the bodies of these aspiring creations, count felt and chenille in +be lead, and add that velvet is a favored material in millinery, as 1t is with dress and cloak maker and even with the furrier.

So far have found no way of making the change permanent, but I believe that continued treat ment will have it's good effect. l cannot see that it is in any way what might be spoken of as hypnotic devel- opment To be sure my investigations in hypnotism are primarily responsible for this discovery, but still, it seems to be along the lines of pure magnetism. Certainly the will of the operator-the physician-has nothing to do with the effect which the magnet has upon the subject. Another evidence that it is entirely non-hypnotic is the fact that it seems to apply as well to people whose minds are somewhat diseased as it does to those with healthy minds. :"

As we toiled on through the heat of summer and tried to make believe that winter was really coming, there were men who divined it from afar. And so, at the first touch of September cool ness, there leaped as if by magic from a hundred hiding places the very garb of winter-fur. And at one word we have passed from the tropics to Siberia.

which most affairs not commonplace and thoroughly accepted by all the rest of the world first are sent by this distinguished but exasperatingly delib- crate group of scientists.
 Prof. Luys has found way of hypnotically administering medicines that is, he is on the path which he thinks will end in his being able to administer the influence"s of a drug without administering the drug itself. Dr. Luys more than year ago found that certain substances, placed in glass tubes. affected hypnotized sub jects strangely. even when held at distance. Just exactly what the physiological effect amounts to is one of the things which remains to be learned, but there is no question of the psychological effect. For instance. take the subject Esther. It may be well to deal with her alone in this article, although the experiments have been tried on many subjects. Fig. 1 shows her face as it appears when in a normal state.

drugs which do not exist to the person in normal sta te.
 And now we come to what have al- ready referred to when 1 said that in this article would be made the first an- nouncemcnt of one of the most amazing scientific discoveries of the time. The doctor lifted from the shelves piece of iron curved into the shape of a horse shoe big big enough to fit over a hu- man head, and fitted with straps ad- justed so that when it is in place they let it fall about as low as the temples and no lower. He placed this on his own head and came forward.

Yet can anger you and draw your anger from you to lock it up in this bit of curved iron. can please you and then steal your pleasure away to store it in this queer thing. l can find you melancholy, and with this can relieve your melancholy, can find you an optimist, and in half an hour can ffleh your good nature, transferring it, in stead, to this inanimate piece of metal.

 His private workshop is the Charity hospital, of which he is the head-is a part of his home. His study is a little room full of books. That is where he re- ceives his private patients. It opens on 2 big courtyard, and at the other side of the courtyard Is a little building apart. The courtyard which surrounds 1t is, on pleasant days, gay with the music of song birds in cages which are suspended everywhere.

Finally she came to me and asked me to see if could not do something for her I tried hypnotic treatment without avail. I did everything could to get her into healthful physical condition, so that her brain would have good influences to feed on But it did not change her strange dislike for her family and friends. I was puzzled
 Finally I had tllis big horseshoe magnet made. l had no especial plan in so doing, only feeling that magnetism thus applied might be more effective than it had been applied in the other ways which I had tried. She came to my office and placed this thing on her head. bade her wear it for half an hour and was somewhat curious to see whether there would be any result at all, and if so, what it would be. At the end of half an hour I asked her how she felt. She was so weak that 1 was alarmed. The magnet seemed to have absorbed her strength. She was in a mental state which might be de- seribed as fabby She felt no partieu- lar emotion. She was simply tired in mind and body.

 One of the first things which the doe tor discovered through his work with Esther was that to the hypnetized sub ject each human being is separated into two parts. These are identified by colors. While the subject is in the state known technically as lucid som- nambulism, the person whom she looks at is marked by yellow line which begins at the top of the head and runs down the middle, dividing the individual in half. Then, if this person be in good health, the right side Is distinguished by blue flames issuing from the right nostril, the right ear, the right eye; while the left side is similarly marked by red flames. Thus, in the parlance of ,hypnotisIn, people are now said to have their red and Gnelr Dlue Slues. nat b1lS Stfauge phenomenon meant was for long time most puzzling question.

preached with the same tube from the other side the effect is shown In Fig. 8. There is contortion of face and figure as if from pain. Fig shows the effect of tube containing ten grammes of cognac. The subject is as evidently intoxicated as she would be if she had drunk ten times that quantity of the liquor. Fig. 5 shows how tube of ordinary pepper affected her when held to the red side of her face. She is smiling. When applied to the blue side, as in Fig. 6, the pepper brought the ex- pression of frightened woman One of the most extraordinary of the many effects winch Dr. Luys has ob- tained by his impersonal presentation of drugs, is shown in Fig. T, where the essence of thyme is the drug used.
 This caused extreme fear, and added strange swelling of the thyroid gland of the neck to size more than three inches above the normal. In Fig. 8 extreme anger is caused by tube of chlorydrate of morphine. When pre- sented to the other side of the subject the same tube caused pleasant sleep.
 Extravagant fear is the expression worn by the subject when she was photographed for Fig. 9. That was caused by the action of a tube of sul- phate of sparteine. Another variety of fear, caused by sulphate of strych- nine, is shown by Fig. 10. These ex- amples could be multiplied indefinitely.

It impressed me as a strange eoinei- dence that my pilgrimage in search of tue private workshop of the greatest hypnotist in the world should take me to the same part of Paris which I had already searched in gathering photo graphs of the localities in which sTril- by, that romance of hypnotism, was born. Du Maurier's old studio and the home of Prof Buys, of the Charity hos pital. are on the same street.-the Rue Notre Dame ties Champs And the hyp- notie facts which have come out of the one are infinitely more amazing than is the hypnotic romance which came out of theother.
