The improper use of hypnotic power
may induce mental deterioration or
even insanity. This power, which may
yield specialist important results and
do the subject no harm. easily worka
serious mischief when ignorant or de-
signing men make 1t serve their pleas

ment does not control and limit the ap-
plication Of hypnotic influence, the Law
ought to intervene to restrict its exer-
