One of the most remarkable cases of hypnotism yet reported is attiae.iug the atteutlon of medical men here, says the Baltimore Suu. The victim, too. fur a time made things lively tor about twenty persons who were attending a tea in the West End last evening. The scene of the singular actions of the vic tim of hypnotism was at the residence of W. J. Gilman, No. 922 West Marsh all street. The subject of the hypno tists was Johu Sweeney, the son of a well-known livery man. During the evening it was suggested as an additional means of entertain ing the guests that some one be hypno tized. Young Sweeney, who is quite i powerful young man, offered his serv ices, and was soon under the influence jf a young operator named Cook. In a few moments ft was seen that theyoung man was completely under Cook's in fluence. The company became annoy ed and suggested that the spell be broken and the victim released. This was attempted, but in vain. The young man cut up ail sorts of antice. In his efforts to release his patient the opera tor was terribly slugged and several of his front teeth knocked out. Sweeney manifested wonderful feats of strength. At times half a dozen or more men at tempted to seize and bind him, but could not do so. "The services of a stal wart policeman were called upon. When he got within reach of the latter’s fist he received a terrific blow, which sent him spinning away more than twenty feet. Sweeney, under the peculiar in fluences. appeared to imagine himself a prize-fighter, and for a time it was well that few disputed this point with him. A physician was finally summoned, and after a long struggle the young tnan was handcuffed. He was removed to a hospital for treatment. Sweeney remained in a stupor until the nex! morning about 8 o’clock. The medicine taken by Mrs. Ida E. Ward, Cove Point, Md.. was Hood’s Sar saparilla. She writes: “1 had a disagree able itching on my arms which I com hided was salt rheum. I began taking Hood’s Sarsaparilla and in two days felt better.

The liability to disease is greatly lessened when the blood is in good con dition, and the circulation healthy and vigorous. For then all refuse matter is promptly carried out of the system ; otherwise it would rapidly accumulate — fermentation would take place, the blood become polluted and the consti tution so weakened that a simple malady might result seriously. A healthy, active circulation means good digestion and strong, healthy nerves. As a blood purifier and tonic S. S. S. has no equal. It is the safest and best remedy for old people and children because it contains no minerals, but is made exclusively of roots and herbs. No other remedy 60 thoroughly and effectually cleanses the blood of im- purities. At the same time it builds up the weak and de- bilitated, and reno- vates the entire sys tem.

In “Travels in New England and New York” President Dwight of Yale Col lege tells a good story of Indian wii and friendship. In the early days of Litchfield, Conn., an Indian called at the tavern and ask ed tlie landlady for food, frankly stat ing that he had no money with which to pay for it. She refused him harshly, but a white man who sat by noted the red man's half-famished state and of- fered to pay for his supper. The meal was furnished and the In dian. his hunger satisfied, returned to the fire and told his benefactor a story. •'You know the Bible?” said the red- skin. The man assented. "Well,” said the Indian, “tlie Bible say, God made world, and then lie took liliu and look at him and say. 'He good very good.’ He made light and he took him and look at him and say. 'He good, very good.” Then he made dry land and water and suu and moon and grass and trees, and took him and look at him and say. 'He good, very good. Then he made benst and birds and fishes, and took him and look at him and say, 'He good, very good.’ “Then he made man and took him and look at him and say, ‘He good, very good.’ Then he made woman, and took him and look at him. and he no dare say one such word!” That last conclusion was uttered with a meaning glance at the landlady. Some years after this occurrence tlie man who paid for the Indian's supper was captured by redskins and carried to Canada, where lie was made to work like a slave. One day an Indian came to him, recalled to his mind the occur rence at the Litchfield tavern, and end ed by saying: "I that Indian. Now my turn pay. I see you home. Come with me.” And the redskin guided tbe man back to Litchfield. The Barber Shaved the Floor. A man entered “Bobby” Urlcho’s ton- sorlal paradise the other day and asked for a bottle of hair restorer. Robert affably sold him one, remarking as he accepted tbe 50 cents it cost that It would be well to dilute it. as it made hair grow so fast that it kept its users awake at nights cutting tbe capillary excrescence back. Just as tbe custom er was going out of the door tbe bottle slipped and fell to the ground, scatter ing the valuable fluid In all directions. Robert refused to give back the 50 cents. "Tell you what I’ll do," said he. with a magnanimous air. “I’ll sell you an other bottle at cost price. 13 cents.” “Dinged if you will.” said the bald man. and in the presence of a curious crowd he got down on the floor and proceeded to rub bls head In the pool of restorer. After It was well soaked he got up and went out. Uricho now puts In all his spare time shaving the floor where the restorer was spilled.— Cincinnati Enquirer. LoKi<-. ...WHISKY...
