Wished to Try Hypnotism.

The Boston Herald tells a story Of a
woman who wanted to use hypnotism
as a substitute for a love philter. This
brilliant idea occurred to a woman
who had listened to a lecture on hyp-
notism by an eminent physician. Vol
unteers from the audience went upon
the platform and were thrown into
harmless frances. so this woman wrote
to the lecturer next day, stating that
she desired to consult him, r he
waited for her coming, thinking she
was a patient. ooh, no." she said. Il
am quite well, but I am very much in
love with a man who will not ask me
to marry him. Now 1 want TO invite
him and you to lunch, so you can hyp-
notice him and make aim PROPOSE
The doctor, who was immensely divert
ed by this idea, suggested hat she
should trust to her W hynotic at
fractions. and the disappointed lady
went away observing that hypnotists
are most impractical.
