MENTAL SUGGESTION.
Freaks of the Mind ns Witnessed by
Doctors.
From the Medical Record.

From the Medical Record.
If an individual has faith in a medicine
or in a treatment, ne wiI assuredly derive
more benefit from that medicine or treat
ment than if he were skeptical as to lis
merits There can be lille doubt that the
sympathetic physician is the one best ca =
culated to lead his patient TO recovery.
Again, in many diseases the good that may
be wrought 10 the sufferer by the agency
of mental suggestion is undeniable. Prof
]. NJ. Baldwin, referring 10 this fact in
connection with insomnia, says: In ex-
perimentiug upon the possibility of sug-
costing sleep to another, l have found GER
tain strong reactive influences upon my
own mental condition. Such an effort
which involves The picturing of another as
asleep is strong auto-suggestion of sleep.
taking effect in my own case in about five
minutes if the conditions be kept con
slant The more clearly the patients
sleep Is pictured the stronger becomes the
subjective feeling of drowsiness. An I'M
failing cure for insomnia, speaking for my
self, is the persistent effort to put soma
one else asleep by hard thinking of the end
in view, with a continued gentle move
ment, such as stroking the other with the
hand"
Dr. Z. c. Spitkza of New York has re-
Gently given some really remarkable iu-
stances OF the power of mental suggestion.
He cites the well-known fact that the NOR
tality from wounds and diseases in a de-
feared army, compared with a victorious
army, is as four to three, and even three
to two. He also refers 70 the incontro-
vertible fact that persons In robust heath
have been known TO die apparently of
starvation after being without food for
from three to five days. DR.. Spitzka is Of
the opinion that these individuals did not
die of actual starvation, but from the
physical effects of hunger. The proof of
this contention lies in the fact that per-
sons have been known to fast of their own
free will for more than forty days without
injuring their constitutions to any appre-
ciable extent. Many examples establish
ing the truth of this statement might be
given, but il viii be sufficient TO quote one
from DR.. Spitzka's paper He says: an
the grayer forms of hysteria, when loss Of
sensation occurs in exactly one-half Of the
body you can lay piece of tinted paper
on the sensitive side; then, suggesting il
to be mustard plaster, a red area will APP
pear on the corresponding unsensitive
side. Blisters of such a character that
scars have permanently remained from
them have been produced in similar cas- s
by the same method" The medical pro
fession, il appears more than likely. have
not as yet wholly appreciated the advan-
tages TO be derived from the employment
Of mental suggestion.

giving Catron hurried but critical

seven Soldiers KILLED

While resting in the Office Catron's COM
panion called attention to a placard offer
ing S10009 reward for the arrest of
stage robber. The description almost ex-
actly fitted Catron. His companion re-
marked this. ard both laughingly COM

camp. Just here followed something
strange, resulting in seven dead soldiers,
one dead and one wounded civilian, and
after inquiry by the war department., and
several transfers Of officers from Fort
Garland. Although only sixteen years

Catron says they were riding along talk

robber, when they heard the command

what almost amounted to a voley from
the carbines of troop of soldiers drawn
up across the road. Catron's companion
fell over the pommel of his saddle, but
not before he had drawn mis- six-shooter
Catron out with both of his, and together
they charged the soldiers Catron's part

half way through. Catron succeeded in
making his way clear, getting five. while
his partner got two.

cause of the attack. The result of the
