A French Writer’s Theory of How It May Be Exuded by Man. Dr. Georges Dumas is the aqtbor of an article In the Kevue de Paris on “The Odor of Sanctity." The writer accepts as true the numerous reported Instances of saints and mystics of the Catholic church whose bodies after deuth or during moments of ecstasy emitted peculiarly pleasing odors of various kinds. Then men and women with whom such legends deal, argues Dr. Dumas, were neurasthenes. and It is not impossible that the aroma of sanctity which surrounded them was the product of strictly physiological and chemical changes common to all men, but present in highly intensified form in subjects who. so to si»eak. burned up the eandla^f their existence at an unusually rapid vate. Ho says in part: “So far, then, we have come across a great variety of perfumes—cinnamon, clove, orange, pineapple, rose, violet, illy of tho valley, yellow amber and benzoin. Now. the natural constitu tion of all uf these is well known, and chemistry produces them daily for com mercial purposes. We may therefore .substitute t! prossp :: : j h.i \ <• ■ ;• ; pet'fu’ii aroma. : hois, jiiii pineapp! * <•< poum struction of organic matter, which Is tho constant condition of life, in par ticular acetones and the volatile fatty acids, butyric, formic, acetic, etc. If the process of combustion is normal all these constituents are burned up. com pletely oxidized, and give as a residue water, carbonic acid and urea. But let some slackening occur in the inmost nutrition of the tissues and the same constituents will, escape through the breath, perspiration and the skin.” ANY ONE CAN HYPNOTIZE.

Of course, whoever wants to hypno tize— in fart, no one but a physician ought to do ir must learn tin* tech nique and apply ir patiently and skill fully. -And certainly then* are individ ual differences. Not every one can I# deeply hypnotized. With not a few the inhibition goes no farther than the inability to open the eyes, while only one out of four enters into strong hypnotic hallucinations. Further, not every one Is well prepared to awaken that confidence which is essential and that feeling of repose which guides one over to the dreamy state. The look, the voice, the gestures, the phrases, the behavior, of certain persons make them poor hypuotizrrs, however well they may understand the tricks. But in principle everybody can hypnotize ami ran be hypnotized, just as in principle everybody can love and can be loved, and no special mysterious power is needed to fall in love or to awaken love. Yet. while thus every one can exert hypnotic influence, no one can do it by a mere glance.

Now and then mirrors of a curious kind are seen in Europe. They are called “magic mirrors’’ and are of Jap anese origin, made not of glass silver ed, but of cast bronze, polished on the face and bearing on the back raised patterns, inscriptions, symbolical de signs, crests or pictures. When ex posed to a bright beam of light from The sun or from an electric lamp they reflect In the light froiq their polished face the image of the pattern on their hacks. This is a purely optical property and has of course nothing in common with the fortune telling magic crystals of the astrologer or the alleged magic mirrors of necromancy, yet It long puz zled the scientific optician and even now is little known or believed. The researches of various scientific men have established the fact that the phe nomenon is due to very minute differ ences of curvature in the polished face, differences so minute that they do not affect the ordinary use of the mirror as a looking glass and that can be de tected only by delicate optical tests. The only remaining mystery has been as to how these delicate differ ences of curvature were produced In exact correspondence to the pattern on the back. The makers themselves are often in ignorance of the magic prop erty and do not know which of their mirrors possess it and which do not. The mirrors are cast in molds and aft erward polished by hand, and it is held by scientific men that the differ ence of curvature is caused by the met al’s yielding unequally under that pres sure of the tools used in scraping and polishing, the thin parts naturally bonding more than the thick. This ac counts for the mirrors’ incoming magic. Chicago News. Cook Auction Back In 1732. John Moirtgomerir. governor *f tin* province of New York, dieii on July t i7.il.
