ACTRESS MADE A STAR BY
HYPNOTISM
Under the Spell She Carried
the Audience BY Storm...
Famous il a Night

DIR. John d. Quackenbos, professor
In Columbia University IN New York,
astonished his associates at the Medi-
co-Legal Society the other night by
telling them how young actress
bounded into fame In a single night
under the hypnotic sre'l. II is the
case OF Trilby In real life; not the
trick of a charlatan, but sober, actual
accomplishment of latter day science.
The new Trilby is favorite with the.
atre.goers. Her first appearance on
the stage was made at New York
Theatre, when, under the hypnotic
spell, she carried the audience by
storm. She was called before the cur
tain again and again-at bound she
was famous. The press of the city
united In applauding her splendid
work. 1t Is only one of the many mar.
wells of this wonderful power.
The New York Institute of Science,
of Rochester, N. Y. has recently issued
4 new book which is being distributed
free throughout the country for the
purpose OF educating and protecting
the public. 1t is one Of the most weird
and fascinating works ever written, 1t
cravings and Its vivid descriptions of
the practical uses and possibilities of
this marvellous mind.power fll one
with awe and amazement. Among the
many intensely interesting subjects
are: How to hypnotic instantaneous
ly; how to influence person secretly
without his knowledge how to develop
personal magnetism and use II In bus.
mess, society, ETC.. power of the hui
man will; how to cure the most OBJ.
stinate diseases and bad habits by
magnetic forces without drugs or med
icines; how to make people like you;
how to win In business. In society, in
love; any one can develop personal
magnetism; rules which will absolute
~ develop this power within a short
time; the transmission of thought; the
development Of soul power; how to
make a business man listen to you
when he would send anyone else away;
how to sell man goods when he does
not want to buy; q legitimate way to
double your salary; how to keep peo-
pie from influencing you; hundreds
secretly influenced and controlled In
body and mind without their knowl-
edge; how to implant a suggestion or
command In a subjects mind that he
will carry out a week, month or year
hence, just as the hypnotist may wish;
how to hypnotic by mail or by tel.
ephone; how to develop within your.
self that inward power, that force of
character, which instantly gives you
control over people without saying
word or making single gesture.

Main street and it happened ono sum
mer morning. I think that you
were in Europe at the time and you
may never have heard of the incident.
I infer that you have never learned OF
it. 1t happened thus:
A horse came tearing down the
street, mad with fright and plunsing
wildly. He drew a carriage in which
sat q helpless woman and two chill
dren. pale with fright. The woman
had lost all control of the beast and
all the occupants of the carriage we're
in imminent peril. Men tried TO
stop the runaway but their efforts only
increased the stupid terror Of tho
frightened animal and aggravated the
danger of the woman and children.
Finally II man, a friend of mine,
dashed from the sidewalk. He seized
the loose rein as the horse rushed on.
All Of them sped on. the horse plung-
ing and jerking the rescuer from his
feet time and again. Still he held on.
| saw him down; still he held on. He
seemed under the horse, almost under
the carriage and his body was dashed
against the pavement for almost a

block as the mad rush went on. He
was bruised and his clothes were torn
but he held on, and just as he was
dashed against the curb with cruel
force which may have left its mark TO
this day, he gained control. The
horse was stopped and the people in
the carriage saved.
Time has passed on and the incident
passed out of mind. Yet it was only
a few years ago. Strangely enough it
was recalled TO my mind by a recent
speech of yours.
Mr.. Foster, the nj in that car

Postmaster General Issues a State
nent pisciaining Government
Ownership.

Washington, D. G., Dec. 16. At
tention of the p%ostof1ice department
has been called to a widespread BELIEF
that rural route mail boxes, eve
though purchased by the individual
patrons, become the property of the
government. The postmaster general
authorizes the statement that no or
der ever has been issued by his de-
partment claiming ownership of the
rural mail boxes.
It is explained that the erroneous
impression probably arose from the
fact that the postofice department
will not permit mail boxes erected on
rural mail routes to be used for any
other purpose than the receipt and
dispatch Of mail matter. The position
taken by the department is that While
the rural mail boxes are ~thesproperty
of; the patrons buying them, they are
erected exclusively for the receipt and
dispatch of mail and matter placed in
the boxes is construed to be i'll the
mails and subject to the laws and reg.
ulations governing mail matter, in
Guiding the payment of postage.
The postcfice department has an
ncunced the appointment ot F1emon
NJ. Mathews as postmaster at Udell
Appapoose county, vice T. G. Mauson
resigned.
