In speech delivered in Mime

In a speech delivered in Mime
apolis last summer, Vice Presi-
dent Roosevelt said:
I'VE shall find it necessary 10 the
future to shackle cunning, as in the past
we have shackled force. The
vast individual and corporate fortunes,
the vast combinations of capital which
have marked the development of our
industrial system, create new conditions
and uecessitate a change from the old
attitude of state and nation toward pro-
perty."
But since Mr.. Roosevelt became
president of the United States, he
has done nothing to ''shackle
cunning as in the past we have
shaekled force" He has chosen
for his attorney general, upon
whose activity and zeal depend
the enforcement of the antitrust
laws, a man who was attorney for
one of the largest of trusts. In
his message to congress, Mr..
Roosevelt ADVOCATED the control
| rather than the abolition of trusts;
and in selecting men to represent
this government at the coronation
ceremonies of the king of Eng
land, Mr.. Roosevelt chose the son
of j. Pierpont Morgan as one of
the secretaries. Can it be that
Mr.. Roosevelt's views on the trust
question have undergone radical
changes since he became president
of the United States? If he now
entertains the same views ax-
pressed at Minneapolis. when will
he begin the work of "shackling
Cunning as in the past we have
shaeklei force?" The American
people are interested in this ques.
ton.

The thin man looked just as if everybody
IN the world imposed ON him. Even his
mustache grew crooked. He came into the
car of the suburban train sidewise, depos-
tied his basket gingerly and slid into the
seat beside it. As soon as the train cleared
the tunnel the basket meowed The thin
. man smiled back at the man across the
aisle, and gave, the basket shake An
other meow. little girl in the seat in
front stood up on the cushion and peered
at the basket, relates the New York Post.

:. Yep" the child answered. "Lemme see
NO; it might get away" the thin man
said, with another smile.
The basket preserved silence for several
minutes, then it began to cluck. The
child's eyes opened wide.
Like caickens?" the thin man asked.
Before the child could reply re basket

the aisle, whose face was as puzzled as the
child's, asked:

juvenates the nerves and brain.

CURES BY HYPNOTISM.
Interesting Account of Experiments
in an English Insane Asylum
During Ten Years

In lecture lately delivered before
the Kings College Medical society DR..
Milne Bramwell gave an interesting
sketch of the subject of hypnotism, re-
ports the London Hospital. Describ-
ing the experiments of Florel, who till
recently was the medical director of
the BurghOli asylum and one of the
professors of the University of Zurich,
he said that he had succeeded in hyp-
nothing nearly all his asylum attend
ants both male and female, a large
proportion of them becoming pro-
found somnambules. For ten years ex-
perlments were made in regard to the
use of hypnotism in the night watch
ing of dangerous lunatics. Warders
were hypnotized and trained to sleep
by the bedside of these patients and to
awake the instant they heard them
attempt to get out of bed, the hypnotic
suggestion being made use of to in
hibit all sounds, which made no refer
ence to the duty laid upon them, and it
was found that warders so hypnotized
could perform night duty for six
months and work hard all day with
out showing signs of fatigue. The re-
suit of these experiments were, it is
SAID, uniformly successful, and no &C.
cident of any kind occurred.
In regard to this and other applica.
lions Of hypnotism DR.. Bramwell re.
ters to the method of Wetterstrand.
who instead of restricting himself to
suggestions made in the course of
short hypnotic trance, advocated the
of bpc iX-a off,
hypnotic sleep. Wetterstrand treated
epilepsy and grave forms of nervous
disorder by keeping the patients in
the hypnotic trance for three or four
weeks. Without rousing them, the
patients were fed at stated intervals.
and the actions of the bowel and blad-
der were regulated by suggestion and
thus mental as we'll as physical rest
was given, in addition to such thera-
peutlc advantages as might be gained
by aid of suggestion.
DR.. Milne Bramwell says that. al
though everyone cannot be deeply
hypnotized, profound states are not
necessary for the successful EMPLOY
ment of suggestion, and the number
of persons insusceptible to some degree
of hypnotic influence is extremely
small Among other diseases he gives
the following as those in which hypno-
tism has given good "Hysteria.
neurasthenia, dipsomania, and other
drug habits, obsessions, moral per-
versities and nervous tricks in chill
dren." We may add that, as far as the
treatment of dipsomania is concerned
it seems not entirly impossible that
some of the startling results which are
said to have been obtained at certain
institutions for the treatment of this
condition may haze been the outcome
of an unacknowledge but none the less
effectual application of hypnotic sug-
gestion.
