People who are slow to accept new ideas
unless accompanied by all but mathe-
NAUTICAL proof of their soundness are par
ticuiarly skeptical of ideas that have to do
with the occult. The so-called science or
art of hypnotism, for instance, they regard
with distrust and scorn. They decline to
believe in it, and sniff contemptuously at
the phenomena pointed out by its support
ers as convincing evidence of its genuine
ness The man who goes upon the stage at
a public demonstration Of the art, is put to
Sleep" laid out stiff, with his feet in one
chair and his head in another, and has
pins stuck into him without fiinching,
proves nothing to these doubters but fraud.
The plea sometimes put up by thief that
he was hypnotized by a wicked companion
into the commission of the crime is re-
ceived by them with a disdainful smile.
Nevertheless these scorners art not beyond
the influence of weighty evidence. If there
really is such a thing as hypnotism they
are willing to know it, but the proof must
be powerful 1t is proof of this kind that
is offered them in an occurrence that has
taken place at the classic town of Hacken-
sack, n. j. Mrs. Humphrey Smith-Piper,
a lady of much force of character, was on
trial in the courts of Hackensack last week
on the disagreeable charge of bigamy. She
had, it seems. married Piper without the
necessary legal preliminary of getting rid
of Smith--Humphrey, since he did not APP
pear in the case. being presumably dead or
divorced. She had lived with her second
husband six years, and there was no lack
of testimony showing that the marriage
ceremony had been duly performed, but
Mrs MISUNDERSTANDING Piper went before
the jury and solemnly assured that body
that the ceremony and the entire period of
six years were a total blank to her, and
declared her belief that she was in a
hypnotic state during all that time, and
was consequently wholly innocent of blame
when she contracted a third marriage after
coming out of her six years trance. Now,
Mrs. Pipers declaration is not offered here
as proof of the truth of hypnotism; far
from it, The Journal freely admits that the
declaration of the gifted lady, put into cold
tyne and considered at a distance from her
obviously agreeable presence, is by no
means convincing. 1t has it's weak points.
No one can fairly be accused Of unreason-
