". ANALYSIS.

Love worried Philip Fosdick with re-
behind the desk in his consultation
room, doing his best to give his best to
those unfortunates who sought him
cut to lay open distressed hearts and
bespeak his sympathy and healing
counsel. or whether he sat in solitude
cudgeling his wits for insight into the
mystery that shadowed the happiness
of the woman he loved.
The. problem mocked his shrewdest
efforts Practice and study. personal
contact and observation together with
close examination Of cases recorded
by others, had long since made him, as
he believed, familiar with every phase
of psychosis, hysteria and neurosis, as
well as with these psychic phenomena
which will at times develop in per-
sons of seemingly normal idiOsyncrasy,
from simple dreaming to somnambu-
lism in all its gulses. with hallucina-
ton. trance. ecstasy, telepathy and
telaesthesla and the various forms of
| hypnosis.
However nearly akin they might be
to more than one of these, what Fos-
dick for want of better name contin-
ued with Priscilla to term her
dreams" persisted in defying classifi-
cation by virtue of perverse sort Of
intrinsic uniquity. For they were in
no sense true dreams, having none of
the features peculiar to those fantastic
inventions of the mind uncensored by
waking consciousness. They were ut
terly without traceable relation to any
thing in the memory of the subject
or her personal circumstances and en-
vfronment. Nor were they, as is
every ordinary dream, tumble of con-
densed and disfgured impressions un-
ineligible but to the trained percep-
tions Of the analyst. On the contrary

sane than her well nourished, groomed

To a certainty, however, the

dick had already seen they could be
stimulated by auto-suggestion-as
when Priscilla had suffered a sense of
translated identity while puZzling over
her portrait of "Leonora." SO, too,
without question. they fell within the
definition of telaesthesia as "any d.

she was the vessel of a dual personal

but sweet with the warm delight of
youth anticipating the richness of ma

winds walked suavely beneath skies OF
velvet, purple, dense and soft. Top

"All across my back and hips were
pains, pulling and aching until I could
hardly sit up. I stayed in bed few
days. My husband had heard OF Car.
dui so told him he might get it.
AFTER l had taken Cardui a few
days, l was up. I took five bottles and
haven't been in bed since for this

take it in time.
