city contains the fun text of the last annual ad-
dress Of DR. II. H. Seelye as President Of the Hamp-
shire County Branch Of the Massachusetts Medical
Society. II il devoted 70 q very interesting dis
cusson OF the theme OF the importance of sug
geston as both means OF producing disease and
the agent for it's cure The subject has peculiar
pertnence at this time of faith cures" and Chris
uan Science healing" for IL explains the reasons
for whatever justification there may be in their

influence acting on the mind when no conscious
abnormal change has been produced on the pa
tent In hypnotsm. he explains. the sub
lection of the will Of the subject TO the desires Of
the hypnotzer is conscious that the assertion
Is made that person cannot be hypnotizcd un
consciously or against his will: but mere sugges-
ton may frequently and altogether unconsciously

geston has been intentionally made with the
expectation Of a given result and consequently

consciously, there must be in the mind of the
individual desire, longing a hope, faith,
