SUGGESTION IN THE

SUGGESTION IN THE
 CURE OF DISEASE.
 The sudden recovery of little Helen Scott from paralysis, so instantaneous as to seem miraculous to those who had been praying for her cure, was given much space in New York pa pers. The case affords a spectacular but by no means rare example of the power of suggestion. Cures of this character come frequently without the experience of physicians and physical culturists, but Jas they have been ac- complished without recourse to any method that might suggest supernat- ural intervention, they do not attract special attention. During a long ill., ness, especially of a. neurasthenic char acter, most people form mental hab- it of believing themselves afflicted with one or more serious organic diseases. Even after exercise and proper food and right living and scientific medica- tion have restored their bodily health, they may for a time continue to con- sider themselves i'll. In such cases
