BIS sensitiveness of the skin was
made to disappear by the hypnotic
process; but any touch or puncture of
of a pin or needle on the
outside edge of the phosphores-
cent or luminous coating per-
ceived by AS eyes was Immediately
perceived by Il. His body did not feel
the prick of n needle. but the outer
ede of his luminous effluvia" several
feet away from the skin, had acquired
this sensitiveness lost by the body.
And here appears n wonderful fact.
The water in the tumbler removed to
the end of the room had acquired that
same sensitivenss. If you pinch the
water with your fingers or touch it with
a pin b will scream that you pinch or
prick him. But r will not feel the ac-
ton if performed by a person who
has no magnetic relation with him.
In other words the action of the mag
neither alone will be felt in the water
by the subject. We must conclude
that the nervous sensitivenss of BIS
flesh had been carried further than the
surface of his body, and communica-
ted to objects saturated and impreg
mated by his luminous effluvia;' also
that the sensitiveness of those OBJ
jects remained in them for while,

says de Rochas, loads itself with sen,

and the energy received radiates
from it till it has returned all it has
received; in other words, till it is
spent or emptied.
The extent of the luminous atmos-
phere around Is and the force of the
luminous flames which flow from his
nose, and eyes and mouth and ears, ap-
pear different to A at different stages,
depending upon the depth of the hyp-
notic sleep into which b has plunged.
When the sleep is light his surround

The Colonel immersed 4 small wax
statue of man in this "lfe" of Il
that was surrounding his body, and
found that when he pricked this stat
lie with pin, concealed from B's eyes,
could exactly locate the pin pricks
on his own body. and would exclaim:
you are pricking my arm," or you
arc pricking my face with pin" The
Colonel could not find that this SEN
sitiveness of B extended more than
fifteen or twenty feet from his body
except in extraordinary cases.
This so-called "cxteriorization" and
transfer of Il mans sense of feeling to
inanimate objects has q wonderful
bearing on the subject of contagion
in disease. Still another bearing of
the same discovery was Illustrated by
Colonel de Rochas in an experiment,
with a magnetiZed metallic crown.
This magnetized crown had been origi-
nally used for the treatment of Il pa
tient in one of the hospitals. When
subsequently placed upon the head of
healthy subject in the state of hyp-
notic lcthargy, this subject showed
every symptom of the disease from
which the patient who originally wore
the crown. suffered. In other words,
the luminous effiuvia' of the sick pa
tient had so permeated the crown that
when it was placed on the head of
well man, and the man hypnotized, he
caught the disease from the crown.
These Investigations appear to be
proof positive of Il theory of my own,
which have been led to form from re-
suits attained in various directions.
