prayer, are asked first to buy lot Of
tract literature and are then conducted
into a, parlor and told to have faith
in God and none at all in doctors.
Z Next the patient sits down in a chair
opposite a pretty American girl, who
tells him, or her, to do as she does,
close the eyes and concentrate
thoughts on the suppOsition that the
illness has disappeared and that every
thing is lovely. After ten minutes of

go home and come back next day for
another seance-provided he wants to
pay the fee.
