SELF-INDUCED HYPNoTlsM,
Prof. Bernard While in This State Endures
Surgical Tests.

San Francisco, Jan. 2S.-Prof. P. A.
Bernard Of Des Moines, Ia, sought to
demonstrate to those present at the San
Francisco College Of Suggestive Their
apeutics last evening, that the ad-
mlnistration of an esthetic for the per-
Torrance Of a surgical operation is I'M
necessary. He did this by throwing
himself into a self-induced state of
hypnotism, and submitting to such
surgical tests as completely removed all
doubts as to his utter lack of any feel
ing while in that state. Prof. Bernard
has only recently come to San Fran
CISCO He is connected with the college
in the instruction of trained occuItism.
In the exhibition of scientific hypnotism
he was assisted by E. Mansfield VIII
iams, who acted as his subject in his
various tests. Before beginning his ex-
hibition, Prof. Bernard said he was
willing to submit to any test that was
within the bounds of human reason, and
that could be found in any book of hyp-
notism.
Prof. Bernard sat in chair and com
posed himself. In short time he was
asleep. DR.. Mcmillan then took a nee
die and thread and sewed his ear to his
cheek. He next sewed his upper lin
to his nose, and then pulled his tongue
out and ran a large hat pin through it.
Those present were permitted to exam
inc the test most closely. After the
pin and threads had been removed,
Frof. Bernard awoke. For a few
moments he appeared dazed, but was
soon himself. A towel that he had
placed around his neck was saturated
with blood, but he declared that he felt
no pain or soreness in his face.

WRONG SMITH APPOINTED.
a Post Office Nomination Brought About
BY Forgery.

oneota, N. Y, Jan. 2S. When Presi-
dent Mckinley on January q nominated
David Sands Smith, as postmaster of
Worcester, n. Y, it caused general sur
prise in this county as it was not known
that this Mr. Smith was candidate.
However, Henry H. Smith had had a
petition signed by a majority of the
republican patrons of the post Office
He had the endorsement of the republi-
can leader, supreme court Justice Mat
tice, the county committee and others.
Justice Mattice at once wired Con-
gresham David r. Wilbur tc meet
Senator Platt and himself in New York.
There 1t was discovered that neither the
senator nor the congressman knew any
thing about the appointment, or how it
came to be made. Justice Mattice and
Congressman Wilbur went to Washing
ton and had an interview with the post
master general, and saw the papers up
on which the president acted. The pc
tition had not single signature from
worcester but about 40 names of Wash
ington men.
The papers also contained what pur-
ported to be a letter from Congressman
Wilbur to the president, recommending
David Sands Smith for the place. The
congressman pronounced the letter a
forgery and suspicion pointed 10 one
Patrick, who had been employed by the
congressman as clerk, and whom he
had taken from a trainingship. Patrick
was confronted with the evidence of his
guilt, and confessed that ne had COM

as joke. Patrick left the city that
night and has not since been seen.
Posmaster General Gary assured Jus

that the name of David S. Smith would

A NECKLACE OF PEARLS

Is beautiful possession. If u woman owns
one, and if a single pearl drops off the string,
she makes haste to find and restore it.
Good health is more valuable possession
than necklace of the most beautiful pearls,
yet one by one the jewels of health slip away,
and women seem Indifferent until tits almost
too late, and they cannot be restored.
To die before you are really old is to suffer
premature death, and that is a sin. 1t is a sin
because it is the result of repeated violations
of natures laws.
Pain, lasSitude and WEAKNESS, inability to
sleep, dreadful dreams starting violently from
sleep, are all symptoms of nerve trouble.
You cannot have nerve trouble and keep
your health. In ninety-nine cases out of a
hundred the womb, the ovaries and the bladder
are affected. They are not vital organs, hence
they give out soonest.
