In 1(102 at Snlem, Mums., a number of young girl vent into fit and ac cused several persons of bavin bo witched thetu. This stnrtod the fa mous witchcraft delusion. Wbllo the frenxy was at Its height n woman about forty year old was brought before tho court, a court that hnd comlemued per- sons for vomiting crooked pins and sailing In sieves, but a court couatltut- ed In exactly the same form as our courts of the present day. There was the prosecutor, the advocate, tho Judge and a jury of twelve good and true men. Tho Judge was a venerable mnu nenrltig threescore year and ten He was dlKiillled, ns all Judges are sup posed to be. nnd made au Impressive appearance lu his roles of otllce. Tho prisoner wan necused of healing the sick miraculously and therefor with the help of the devil. "How do you effect your cure?" asked the prosecuting attorney. "I have a charm which I bang about the neck of the sick person." "Let me see It." The woman produced a bit of rolled paper and bunded it to the attorney. Fie unrolled it. uncovering some ml. I characters scratched upou It. Then he gave It to the jury for lnxpectlon. A each juryman looked nt It the poor woman's doom might be read la his ominous look. When the examination had been finished tho prosecutor turn ed again to the prisoner. "Did Satan give you the charm T' "I don't know. It was used upon me wheu I was a little girl. One day a young stranger cam to my mother's house and asked for lodging. I was ill with the chills at the time, and the stranger asked my mother why she permitted me to remain ikk when I could so easily be made well, where upon my mother asked him to cure me Then the young man took that bit of paper, scratched upon It the charac ters, and bung it about my nock. He told my mother that the next morning I would be well. What he Raid came to pass. 1 never bad another chill from that day to this." "And does the charm always curet" "Not always; usually. Some have faith and some are doubtful. I have noticed that the doubtful are seldom helped." "Describe the young man who gave It you." "He was about the height of hi worship, ami with features something like, only, Mng young, be was much handsomer." "Come now, mlatress, confess, as you hope for mercy for your slu, did you see horn 011 the young man' bead or a cloveu foot?" "Ills brow was smooth, but as for bis feet I could not see, since be wore boots to his knees." "Did you believe him to be the devil r "I did not. else I would not hav worn his charm or used it upon others." The prosecutor turned to the jury and said: That thin womau received the charm from the devil I proved In this: That she has healed a number of persons with It who are ready to tes tify to the fact. We shall show that be healed one Iilraui Oldersbaw, one Annie Gaunt nnd Margaret Sherwood the first of a pnlgy, the second of a fe ver and the hist of chills. Healing by divine power hus not been possible lu fifteen centuries. All healing la by divine power or by the devil, ergo this charm caiuo from the devil. But Satan first bewitched the child to whom he gave it, ami she has been possessed ever since. There Is but one way to stamp out these works of hell that are being worked among us." Meanwhile tho judge sat looking fix- edly at the prisoner. He seemed to be in a revery, to be reaching back a through a mist for some bygone scene. When the prosecutor ceased be asked for the charm. It was handed him, and a singular expression came upon bis features. Then he looked up aa If trying to extricate himself from a dream. "Let the prosecutor," be said, "and the attorneys and the jury listen. For ty years ngo I was a young attorney of Boston. I came to this town to try a case, and my client bad no money with which to pay me. I was without a farthing to take me back to Boston. I went to an inn and asked for meat and drink and lodging. By the chimney sat a girl, shaking with a chill. It occurred to me to pay my reckoning by pretending to cure her. I asked her mother why she was not healed and when she begged me to heal her 1 scratched these characters on this pa per and bung It about her neck, telling J her that she would lie well. I did not dream that she would, but I hoped that she might at least mend. To my surprise, her chill did not return. In a few days asked my hostess for the reckoning. "It is I who owe you,' she said, 'for curing my daughter, not you who owe me. "It was 1, not the devil, who gave this child this charm. Why It cured her and why it has cured others I am Ignorant But it shows that these things we are attributing to the devil have some hidden cause that has not yet been revealed to us. The prisoner is discharged." More than two centuries have elapsed since this reference to a hidden cause. It has come to light. It Is the marvel ous effect of mind over matter. How many years more shall elapse before the medical profession have harnessed 1 it as electricity has been harnessed an apply it In place of drugs? . SILVIA LEWIS BALDWIN.
