The Normal Badger for February
is on our desk and we are pleased to
say a good word for the character of
the number. 1t is very good in it's
entirety and has several pieces Of ex-
ceptional excellence. The article,
1.-THE Gibraltar Of America" by Miss
Anna Fortune, is very prettily writ
ten and is interesting from the value
of the information given. The re-
port Of Remnants lecture is also very
well written.
Dave Picket's Ministries gave a
very satisfactory entertainment at
Opera Hall Friday and Saturday
nights. Picket's Minstrel show is a
very good one of it's class, in fact it is
a high grade one in general. Picket
himself is a genius, a versatile imper-
senator, a practical shuttle and clog
dancer and one of the best banjo
players in the country. The Johnson
brothers of Winona, Mimi, with this
show add much to it's character by
their excellent music. They can
make instruments talk, and are
equally familiar with the piano,
guitar, violin, flute, and piccolo.
j. D. Quackenbos, in the February
number of Harper's Magazine, claims
the credit of moral and physical cures
through hypnotic means. He says
that not only is hypnotic suggestion
effective in the treatment Of func-
tional disorder of digestion, ABSORB
zion and circulation but has recently
assumed importance as an appropri-
ate instrumentality for ~effecting
character change ia cases of moral
obliqulty. Criminal impulses are re-
moved and conscience sensitiyeness
substituted for moral an@sthesia
among young criminals. The drink
and tobacco habits are readily amen
able TO hypnotic suggestion.

ed with his %bretheren in Ellsworth
