The essential point of this story
are true.'
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?
