The United States consular service
has often been compared discreditably

asserts that the American consuls are
better provided for, their duties sim
pier and they perform better and more
appreciated work than his majesty's
consular officers.

Il SONG OF Cine

Oh, when shall erring SOM of earth
Begin to learn to know
The simple truth, that mortal man
Makes haste by going slow?
He who takes time 10 think will learn
To quickly think in time;
He who takes time to act may soon
Be acting parts sublime.
Observe the language of the saints,
of sages, and of seers,
Who weighed their words-their words
had weight,
Nor lose it through the years.
Time There is time, and will be time,
In future as of yore-
To think, to act; to live, to die
Till time shall be no more.

MEDloAL mdu WIN Hdo udO-
"a bled somewhat in Psychologist
"a al matters advises mothers to
hypnotic" their children into
being good. He tells them how to con-
duct the process Of hypnotism on the
unconscious infants. Let not mothers
dare to hypnotic their children! The
doctor is guilty of a crime in giving
such advice. He is simply telling a
mother how to paralyze her children's
free will and eventually destroy it for
life. Annie Besant, who knows more
of occult psychology than any smat-
terer who trifies with it out of curios-
ity, said once in a lecture terrible in
its vividness. Better q drunkard
should die of delirium tremens a thou
sand times over than that he should
be cured by hypnotism." When opium
is given to stop pain the nerve centers
are merely paralyzed for the time, so
that they do not feel pain. If the dos
ing is continued long enough and in
sufficient quantity the nerves are dead
ened permanently, and the subject dies.
Precisely the same thing happens on the
mental plane in case of hypnotization.
The will, the highest, royalest faculty
of the intellect, is dwarfed, stunted
and finally destroyed by repeated hyp-
nothing. The subject becomes semi
imbecile, an automaton in the hands Of
the %hypnotist. There is danger in SUBJ
hitting even once to the h%ypnotist. A
small part of his subjects will is there
by given into his hands, and he holds
it ever after. The who lets
herself be ~hypnotized ever 'for fun
knows not what she is doing. If l
had space to tell you some of the facts
known to me on this subject! One
thing, however, be assured of-no hu-
man being can be hypnotized against
his or her will. You have simply to
set that king and emperor, your will,
against the process. Hold your indi-
viduality against those who try to
draw you into their societies or sects,
into matrimony or doubtful financial
enterprises.
