The method of influ- encing, (f reaching the mind through one of these senses is called sugges- tion. For a long time I thought that the general public should not be made familiar with the science of hypno- tism. I thought then, “Observandum sed non imitandum”-â€"-“ Investigate, but do n0t experiment”â€"is to be ap- plied to both the scientiSt and the public at large, believing that it is a very dangerous subject and could be used in a harmful way. But in the course of time I came to the conclu- sion, by study and practice, that hypnotism should be studied, not only by a few professional men, but that it should be known by everybody. Indeed, no educated person should be ignorant of it, and, above all, no phy- sician should pass it by, The influ- ence of suggestion. which underlies hypnotism, is of such vital import- ance to all men in everyday life that everybody should be made familiar with it.

In 1841 Dr. James Braid of Manchester interested himself in the question and discovered at last the germs of truth and gave the name Hypnotiam to it.

The wonderful physical phenomena that are known under the name of hypnotism as a fact are as old as the world itself. From the earliest times they were used in the service of mys- ticism. pronostication. and religion, by the priests of ancient Egypt as well as by the old Indian {akin-s. the Greek oracles. and various magicians. Hyptomism as a science is compara- tively new. Mesmer appeared in the An English hygenic publication, Heslth. hes begun a series of articles on Hypnotism.

This has passed away one of the grandest and noblest pioneer preach- ers the Methodist Church has ever known, in the person of the Rev. Joseph Hilts. He traversed hundreds of miles of trackless forests in North. ern Ontario in the early days, preach- ing where and when he could, and bringing comfort and consolation to many sorrowing homes. His visits were eagerly looked for by the pio- neer settlers, and he was right royal- ly welcomed at every fireside by young and old alike. He had a smile and a kind word for all, and his great warm heart made him friends wherever he went. He labored when salaries as people understand them today were an unknown and very uncertain quantity. His was, in- deed, a “labor of love " for Christ and humanity; and if in heaven there are some crowns brighter and better than others, the Rev. Joseph Hilts has surely heirship to one of the brightest and best. Full of years, and leaving behind him the glorious record of a blameless and most active life, he has gone to his reward.
