Healing Value of Hypnotism,

Berlin, Jan 3o.--The commission of eS-
perts In mental diseases appointed by
the ministry of education to Investigate
the healing value Of hypnotism, report
that It Is essentially worthless, The
commission, which Is composed OF Prof.
Mendall and Doctors. Cock. Munter aud
Ashenborn, was appointed during the
faith healing excitement here a year
ago. The report declares hypnotism
cannot produce organic changes nor
cure epilepsy nor hysterla. but can be
used helpfully in some Instances by re-
moving symptoms through suggestion.
No good physician would leave out Of
account the influence of suggestion up-
on patients, but hypnotic suggestion
may intensity disease when laymen APP
ply II who do not know when 20 use
1t and when not to do so. The Influence
Of hypnotic suggestion diminished in
proportion to popular knowledge of 1t.
1t Is most powerful when regarded by
subject as marvellous and supcrnat-
ural, The commission also notes that
hypnotism is less used than formerly.
