'Are you nt nil Interested in the subject of hypnot ism?" she asked. "No," he replied. "I never have given it n thought." "Rut you should," she fild. "'Hut I don't, know how to try It," ho returned regretfully. "Oh, I can show you that," who snld. "You tnko something bright n piece of sliver or anything like that nnd hold It directly In front of the subject's eyes. Then you tell him to concen trate his gnze nnd thought on that bright object, while you concentrate your thoughts on subjugntlng his will to yours. I'm sure n mnn of your force of character nnd Intensity of purpose would soon be In complete control of the subject. You might try It with mo nnd see if you umlnrstnnd."

He hiul been looking that matter up and bad discovered that ho hart over looked a most Important tost. Tho ex periment wns more protracted on this occasion, but it failed to bring him nny nearer tho goal of his desire nnd hers. To have n hypnotized girl was a decided luxury In Its way, but It did not give him the courage he need ed when Bho was In her right conscious ness. The third evening she protested. "What do you do when I nm under the Influence of your will?" she de manded, "I why, I that Is, I don't do any thing," he nnswercd, but If ever false hood showed in n mnn's face, It did In his when he snld: "I I simply make you do various things to demonstrate my control over your will nnd notions.'1 "I'd like to know what they are'," she Insisted. ''Suppose you Just pretend i nm hypnotized and tell me whnt to do! I'll promise to do It Just ns I would In my Irresponsible state. I want to learn the nnturo of your experiments." "Hut but thnt wouldn't demonstrate anything," he argued. Foolish man I It would have demon strated more thnn nil Ms hypnotic ex periments combined. "Oh, well," she snld resignedly, "If It Is of nny Intellectunl or other ad vantage to you, go ahead. But really I think It would be ever so much bet ter If I were conscious of what was happening; don't you?" TIo winced, and bin fnco fairly burn. ed. In fact, he was so disconcerted thnt ho fulled to notlco the gleam o triumph In her eyes ns ho began Jils usual experiments. Jf he nnd, possibly ho would huvcy been better prepared for what happened when It was over. Ho hail scarcely, us he thought, re moved tho spell, when she suddenly e claimed: "Why, what's that on your coat?"
