believe that the statements are true,

was extended from a 10-year sentence
to a life imprisonment.

rigors of his confinement as Well as he
did, though he was treated with every
consideration compared to the other un-

already been broken by the wild life that
he led, and it was thought that his con-

their will and becoming the dupes of
unscrupulous persons. Hypnotism will
not render person less capable of eX-

-4 HE, TELEPHONE has become an
object of suspicion, and in the
future those who are liable to
hypnotic influence had better
give the transmtter a wide berth. Until
within a few days ago it has always been
believed that the telephone was entirely
innocent and harmless and that the Only
mesmeric influence attached to it lurked
in the golden tones of Centrals sweet
''Hello," and What NUMBER"
The discoveries of Joseph G. Lang, OF
this city, have opened up new possibiH-
ties for the telephone and have disclosed
the fact that hypnotic Influences can lie
exerted over the wire, regardless Of dis
tance, and that a subject can be put to
sleep just as effectively as if by actual
contact.
Mr.. Langs experiment was one of the
most remarkable recorded in the annals
of hypnotism and is attracting wide
spread attention in Waterbury and vicin-
itv.
In the presence of reputable witnesses
Mr.. Lang hypnotiZed three subjects,
three miles away, by simply talking to
them over the phone. All three remain-
ed under the influence for over an hour
performed all sorts of impossible feats
subjected without fiinching to the sever
est tests and did not finally recover con-
sciousness until Mr.. Lang journeyed to
the drug store where they We're and or.
dered them to wake up.
The feat is thoroughly authenticated,
the character of the witnesses being an
absolute guarantee against any fraud
Moreover, MIR. Lang is an amateur and
would have nothing to gain by any no.
toriety. He is an employe of the SEQ
vile Manufacturing company and stands
high in the esteem of the entire com.
munity.

PARALYSIS AND COFFEE.
Symptoms Disappear When Drug is
 Abandoned


 '"Tea and coffee were forbidden 1S- my physician, for I had symptoms of paralysis and it was plain that the coffee was the cause of the trouble. I began using Pos tum Food Coffee and am now a stee$y ad- vertisement for Postum. The old symp- toms of paralysis disappeared in a very brief time after I began the use of Postum and quit the use of coffee. Do not use my name publicly if you please" Morrow, O. The above name can be given by the Postum Cereal Co.,, Ltd, Battle Creek, Mich.
 Coffee is such a direct poison to the nerve centers of many highly organized people that it produces all sorts of dis orders, from stomach and bowel troubles, palpitation of the heart, kidney troubles, etc, etc., up to more intricate nervous troubles, such as paralysis. The way to keep well is to leave off coffee or any nerve destroyer of that sort, and use Postum Food Coffee, which is direct re- builder of the nerve centers. Sure and well defined improvement in health will follow this course, can be proven by any person who will make the trial.
