labor to fix it; If. it only needs regu-
lating it is easy. It's the same way
with a man who is out of health; his
treatment depends on his condition.
We are finding along new lines new
methods of dealing with mental and
moral ills, and one of the most sur
prising Is thu of regulating them while
they sleep.
IF YOU could get at a man while he
was not on guard you could influence
his subconscious mind n make it
obey you; that is, IL your influence was
good. for then his -subconscious mind
would be inclined to cooperate with
you. You could not influence him to-
ward evil any more than If he was
wide-awake, for he a the same power
to resist. Sometimes a mans con-
scious mind is perverted or weak; you
must get beyond that to his sub
conscious mind. the influence of which
is greater than the conscious, If got at
in the right way
THAT is why sleep was ordained. we
have always known of its toning, re-
generating properties. Now we've dis
covered another property. h the
conscious mind is asleep and paying no
attention, you nave a splendid oppor-
tunity to get at the ~subconscious mind,
which is always amenable to sugges
ton. Hypnotism revealed that peo-
nile can hear and receive impressions
and obey when asleep. A whisper is as
potent to the .~subconscious mind as a
shout"
Thine ard again Jesus healed people
by talking to them when they were
asleep. He also said If We have
faith, We can do anything
1.-THE underlying part of the mind Is
always awake: hat means that the
same organs with which we reach the
conscious mind can be used to reach
the subconscious. We are still In the
early stages of experiment, and must
do more than think thoughts toward it.
When we use the voice the sound trav-
els along the auditory nerve to the
brain. which receives the impression
and acts upon it, subconsciously, like
it would If the subject were wide
awake.
1.-THE operator must have faith in his
ability to do this, for the subconscious
mind knows whether you have faith or
not. You cannot get results If you do
these things in a joking spirit. Your

will get wonderful results.
ideas are forces; they act upon the
mind like microbes on water. Put in
good ideas and they'll dominate. The
best time is at night, for the Idea has
five or six. or even seven, hours In
which to saturate the brain. The sub
ject fnds himself changed after a
while, without knowing why.
ut is not wise to tell a patient wha'
you are doing, for it is apt to put him
on his guard, and make his resistance
great, even when he Is asleep. children
are very amenable to this form of sug-
gestion. Today hundreds are being
brought up In this way. This mus
not take the place of parental instruc-
ton or example. 1t is merely supple
mentary.
"Of 100 child cases treated by DR.
Worcester only twelve failed to re-
spond. Forty-five were greatly helped
and thirty-1ve were completely cured.
adults are every bit as amenable
to the treatment as children"
