A School of Hypnotism

By Editor

A School of Hypnotism.—The newspaper report is that Prof. J. J. Hyslop, of Columbia University, New York, has been offered $100,000 towards founding an institute for the special study of Hypnotism. The professor thinks such an institute should be broader than Hypnotism; it should include the whole subject of abnormal mental phenomena, apparitions of the dead, etc. For this he thinks a million dollars would be required. Such an institute as this would be pleasing to the devil, and it is safe to say that the deceiver of the world would be instructor-in-chief. He who studies God's Word will get a better knowledge of the true inwardness of Hypnotism and kindred phenomena than can ever be found elsewhere.
