We have heard young andinjudicious wives say that they did not believe in the saying that the way to a man's heart is via. the sir/mach, and if they could not have a husinnd's love. pure and simple for their‘own sweet» sake. they would not give a snap of their fingers for a man. Unfortunately there is often too much sentiment in young married peo- ple. Marriage is such a stern reality. It is so different from what the fond dreams have pictured it.

The strangest room that any insti- ! tut‘ion for the care of the sick possess- located in the basement. of the New York Post. Graduate Hospital. The hoepital authorities have officially namâ€" ed it. the “Sleep Room.” To the patients it. is the room of mys- tery. It is the home of a new and , modern method of treatment, a method . union of what it means. thereis for each I eggs with an equal quantity of water. which prmnisos ‘0 becumes more many one of two things. A happy, congenial connubiality, or a. life of misery and unrest and discontent. The housewife who considem first her husband's in- terest. his welfare, his happiness, is most apt- to be blessed with the great-. est bliss that can come to Womanâ€" that of being a happy wife. Now. since it must be admitted that. a man's happiness should be the wife's first consideration. it follows that this can only come from prompt, well cook- ed. carefully selected meals. Such dishes as he likes. in infinite variety within one's means, and. especially of nourishing and digestible quality. should be the housewil'e's constant care. If your husband sits down to a. break- fast. that is appetizing. digestible, and set before him in such a way as . to ease and satisfy. do you not think at when he goes forth from the home. to earn the bread of that day, that Le be the better for it? That his mind will be clearer, his energies more pronounced, his success greater? Is not: this the very basis of your exis- tence? It. matters not whether his in- come be ten hundred dollars a week or ten_dollars. It will depend upon how he is fed. Can you not; see that your thoughtfulness in this way may be:â€" nav. tarâ€"beyond question, blessed again and again in his inner consciousness. it. would be well if women could realize this, that often and often the husband far away from home, in the battle of life. allows his mind to reflect for a moment upon the face of his loved one who is enshrined in his heart, and whom he knows awaits his homeâ€"coming With a smile and a kiss. The wife should strivo~by all means In her power. to be past mistress of you only can prepare to his mind with inst that, delicacy and flavor. This is the open sesame to a man's heart, and it is a mighty power for t00d if the loving wife will only use If you are not competent in this. try. with all your strength to learn and perfect yourself. If you are still young. so much the better, but if, un- ortunately you have matured inyears. without the knowledge, do not think it. too late. to begin. Remember, especially if you have a family. that it. is at the table where the most delightful meeting should al- ways take place. Day after day, you will all meet. of meal time. and then the spirit of love and harmony should flow freely. Then is the time for the enjoyment of each other’s society when conversation is light and happy. and mith and laughter abound, and noth- ing is so conducive to this as a well-pre- pared meal. You know. and we believe thoroare few exceptions. that. cares and duties and pleasures. of yourselves or of the children, separate you again as soon as the meal is done. Therefore, as the meal hour is the time of the fam- ily's daily reunion. make the most of it at all times.

The combination of awoman and a pistol is not peculiar to the modern and distinctively burglar-capturing period. It was seen. indeed, so long ago as 1792, more than a century ago. And no one who read of the circumstances of the case could doubt the justification of the combat which then took place. A Mrs. Elphinstone. who visited one day, the Lady Almeria Braddock. under- stood to perfection the art of gentle- voiced and ladylike abuse. "You have been a very beautiful woman,” she ob- served to Lady Almeria. who consider- ed herself yet a girl. "You have a very good autumnal face even now," Mrs. Elphinstone went on. "but you must. acknowledge that the lilim and roses years ago. 1 am told, a young fellow. could hardly gaze upon you with impunity." Whereat her ladyship declared she was not yet thirty. Mrs. Elphmstonc ctted author- ities to prove this figure was thirty years out of the way. and there was then nothing to do but go to Hyde Park and have it out With pistols. \Vomen. then. however, were not the shots they are to-day. and the bloodâ€"thirsty oom- txuants fired at. each other for awhile without either becoming wounded. '1 hey would not hear of a reconciliation. and drew their swords. Mrs. ‘Elphmstone shortly after received a slight wound in the sword arm. This was deemed sufficient to dectde the contest. and the ladies. feeling that the insults had ecu so far as possible wiped out. "quit- ted the field with honor." E years one of the greatest aids to medical {science that has ever been conceived: i It is here that the much scoffed at ,hypnotic power proves to be a blessing Ho the afflicted.

The doctors say that people, asa rule, havea very erroneous idea of hypnotism throw in the cantaloupe; take it outlwofii’i I‘NSAANNier.RxYH.SP and its effects. ,AS a matter of fact, hypnotism is like all other powerful influences, capable of being diverted in- to channels of evil as well as those of good. Hypnotic Buggwtion; when abrought about. by the proper person, is NEVER INJURIOUS in its effects, because great care is tak- en in selecting a subject to ascertain ifghe or she is of such temperament. as would suffer from hypnotic influ- emce. If it. is learned that nature has so constructed the patient that. evil: might. follow hypnotic suggestion, some other method is tried; The officials of (the Post. Graduate Hospital were rather in doubt when the hypnotic idea. was first. seriously con- sidered as to how the public in general would regard their "Sleep Room." It was the first experiment of the kind to be tried in New mistakes of others; Every action must; stand on its own basis. That is why the matter has been kept from the pub- lic" as much" as possible, and this is the first. time the story has been publicly told. Dr. William P. lWilki-n, a man of much learning, and exceedingly well versed in modern thought, as it; relates to medical scienw, has made a special study of the “Sleep Room" and its efâ€" fects, which his regular attendance at. the hospital has given him ample op- portunity to mveswgabe. The facts that are stated in this article, so far as re- gards the technical details of the treat- ment, were told the writer by m. W11- K111. I 'llhcy are strange, indeed, illu- strating as they do what; was long'conâ€" sidercd the fanciful theory that the in- fluence_ot' mind over matter, and mind over mmd, could be brought to the aid of the disciples of Galen; There is nothing in the first glance at the sleep room which indicates that anything 01 an unusual nature happens there. It; is very plainly furnished, be- ing practically bare of everything but benches along the wall, a few comfort.- able chairs, and several screens. A llvlSTINC/l‘ METHOD lies in this plainness, for exceeding care is taken that there shall be nothing In the room to distract. the patients attention In the least from the person from whom [the hypnotic suggtsuon comes. it is a. wml known essential of successful hypnousm to concentrate the patients attention. This is the central idea. of the entire arrangement of the room. Just how the patient is treated, just how liypnotis‘m ts regard- ed by the medical- profession, is explain- ed in Dr. Wilkins own story as he told it. to the writer; . - "I may say," said Dr. Wilkim, "that. my experience in treating a certain line of diseases has been such that the pre- judice first fell: in employing Uhis meth- od, a prejudice quite prevalent among the profession in this country, has been entirely removed, and 1 fully believe in the lxrnefns to be derived by hyp- notic suggestion propsrly employed. Hypno‘tlsm has great. value in treating certain disuasas, though its place in therapeutics is peculiar. My leelimg is that its value is more. striking in its effects than wide in applicability. "There are. many conditions, mental, moral and physical, to be met among the sick, and to be. cornbatxul by one method or another. These conditions, some of them, can not be mot by the ordinary therapeutisal reamrces, and of a case ofttim.s most. wrploxing.‘ "The physicians alt-ending tho. clinics at the [met-graduate, and who may be. taken as reasonably rupr.-.~:cnting the attitude of the. profusion at large. have evinced an active interest in this method of treatment, bul, at. the some time, have also deployed only a slight understanding of it. both as regards the met hod of employing it and the bene- fits to be derived from it. "The. method 1 Hindu}; for inducing ' the. hypnotic slurp is the one in most general use, and Is ('xmlmonly referred to as ‘ tlicy make the sucmsozfu‘l‘ tnanagtment‘ 'BERN E El M'S M E'I'HODZ' it is very simple. la the first plum, it is so arranged, as far as possibln, that. every condition will favor the dc- velopmcnt of the (thought “'(‘ wish should dominate the patLent, namely, that he go to Bitff‘p. To this end, then, must be consid.~ml the. mental state of the patient, the. attitude of the operaâ€" tor and the. environment‘ It is my opinion that revolving disks, or any methods of Scouting mystery. employed for the purpose of inducing the hypno- tic slmp, are an imposition on the pa- tient. I prefer to influence him by appealing only to his confidence and In- telligence. _ ' ~ .

There should be no more favorable to ve the room some- what darkened; “Then the patient is placed in a chair sufficiently easy to produce. no physical constraint; his head rcsts against the hack of the chair, or against. the wall; he is directed to fix his eyes upon some object which is held up before his face, or upon any object in the room. And so, having the patient in a mental and physzcul condittcn favorable to the hyp- notic state, he is told quietly, repeated- ly and firmly to ‘go to slwp.’ Hts brow is usually stroked. In a short lune his eyes look slcepv, his eyelids become heavy and tremtflous. He is then oom- manded to close his eyes. The hand of the. operator is passed gently over his eyelids, and the patient. is informed that he first stage of hypnotic sloop. _ "No exprimezntmg wtth Ik’lllt‘llts, sun- ply to satisfy the curiosity of the. spe â€" tutors or the opsrator, is ever_do.nc.
