IT is true enough that you cannot minister to

IT is true enough that you cannot minister to
4 mind diseased. After twenty years practice
a specialist in mental cases, and a hundred
wonderful "cures " to my credit, l still say that.
But sometimes you can put mind in the way OF
mnistering to itself; and sometimes you show
that the disease isn't disease at all, but merely
unusual activity of the brain that science does
not understand. hallucnation upon par
ticular point and which does not interfere with the
normal working of the mental faculties in the
binary matters of life, is not uncommon as lay
men think; and it must not be confused with mad
ness
The term "ha1lucination" is applied in pathology
to all mental appearances or images which have
no origin in objects of sense. 1t is supposed that
an unnatural activity of the cells of the
brain raises mental impression to such abnormal
vividness that it successfully stimulates actual
patient as reality. Most of the cases which
can undoubtedly be accounted for in this way;
but in the course of my experience have met with
a few instances entirely beyond explanation. The
most curious of these that of Edward
Payne the well-known novelist, who writes under
the name of Arthur Raymond.
l had just begun to be known a specialist when
he came to for advice. He then about
thirty, tall, strong-featured young fellow, with
keen dark eyes, and black hair prematurely streaked
with gray. Crhe gray, strange to say, has now
disappeared) He looked trihe WORN but
eminently sane and healthy, and 1 shrugged my
shoulders when he told that he suffering
from delusion.
You are an imaginative man." l told him,
land your are excited by overwork. You
have got the idea for a story into your mind, and
have been dwelling on it too much. That is all.

Then tell her that
you want a wife of flesh
and blood, not a buzzing
in your ears; and if she
does not choose to reveal
herself you're going to
have one whether she
likes it or not. Don't
just say it-mean it.
Make up your mind that
you will put it to a test
that way. Come, Payne,
be a man. You know
it is a hallucination; but
suppose it isn't, and that
the voice is the voice
of some real woman, a
good woman such as you
evidently think she is,
