Vandraken got up and walked about
the room.
ut sounds logical, and as far as it
goes it is all right. If bat about, the
other man will get to look dissipated,
and he will have my conscience, which
don't envy him. But what want Is
to able to drink all I want, smoke all
want, and all that sort Of thing.
Now, what want to know, Is this:
Will the other chap get drunk when
drink too much, or will I? And
paresis, and all that sort of thing
how about that?"
"Ah, my friend, for that have

| You have heard Of Mental Science?
Well, that is great half-truth in the
wrong hands They say matter does
not exist. Well, there is such world,
but it is not this world. Like every
other religion or theory which has
taken hold Of many people, there Is
some truth in it. Ormuz, the Chal-
dean, he was himself almost Mental
Scientist, for he knew that if a man
could make himself believe that he
had no pain in his head, he would
have no pain in his head. And how
could he do this? Because the mind
has power over matter, and by hypno-
tism he could gain this power. And
so, If you believe that you can drink
bottle of whiskey and it shall not
make you drunk, and spend the night
in revelry and not be tired, you shall
not be drunk, you shall not be tired.
The Mental Scientist says there is no
such thing as disease, and to be drunk
Is disease-result of alcoholic poi
son. You cannot have what does not
exist-you cannot have disease-you
cannot get disease"

"But how to believe strongly
enough, that is the difficulty. Yet by
hypnotism, carried to the point where
can carry it, it is quite simple.

years you can feel no physical effects

control of another man. whether
through the fusion of these auras and
planetary vibrations, or under the
name Of hypnotism-whatm matters the
name? OF hypnotism you have seen
the effect. It would take years to
teach you the cause. So this say:
I put you in control of this other man
and you will that to him shall come
the consequences of each excess, and
it will be SC. You shall spend the
night drinking the red wine, living
the red life in the arms Of the so won

draw about you; yes, you shall have
all the love that money can buy, more
than all the sultans Of the East, and
