One of the strangest was Anton Mearner. In Paris he found prodigious vogue, especially amoofe women. To enter his house was an impressive experience. He had assistants who were claimed to be able to transfer magnetism from their finger tips to patients. If a female patient were in a hysterical state, Mesmer himself, In his robe of silk embroidered with gold, and with his Ivory wand, would stroke her eyebrows or her spine and calm her. The queen of France commended Mesmerism and a pension of 20,000 franca was offered Mesmer if he could prove that he had made any discovery In medicine and would communicate it to the king's physicians. Mesmer objected to the latter part of the offer and left Paris. Two royal commissions were then appointed, on one of which Beujumlti Franklin was a member. After five months of experiment a report unfavorable to Mesmer was returned, sfter which Mesmer retired to the country, with a fortune amounting to 340,(X)0 francs.
