Paris. A strange cure, of u psychic
nature, has Just IKH)Ii achieved before
a number of docMrs and a few experi
menters along the lines of psychiatry.
The patient was a young woman of
hysterical tendency, who for seven
'years had been possessed with an antl
religious mania. During this time the
sight of a priest, the act of passing
near a church, the pronunciation of a
religious formula nil have brought on
either nttacks of violence or spells of
dumbness. The association of ideas
which precipitate these crises were of
the most fantastic kind a piece of
white pnpor suggested the host, ro
maluc salad turned her mind toward
the Itoman church, a glass of char
treuse the brotherhood of Carthusian
monks. At these suggestions she
would tremble and faint. To nourish
a patient under these conditions dally
became more and more of a problem.
Takea Extreme Measures.
In Paris Inst autumn the doctors
whom her husband consulted advised
him to Incarcerate her. Deciding to
try everything else before resorting to
this extreme measure, her husband, on
the ndvco of an eminent chemist, final
ly put her under the treatment of a
well-known specialist In psycotherapy,
M. Mnngln. Six months of treatment,
consisting In psychic re-education,
either in n state of waking or by super
ficial hypnosis, gnvo only results of
short duration. The 'Easter festivities
exasperated the patient to the point of
frenzy. This decided Mr. Mnngln to
go to cxtrcmo measures. lie began a
tireless search for a subject suitable
for tho experiment of a transference
of tho mnlndy, with all Its anguish nnd
strange manifestations. This was a
difficult task, for tho subject must be
of such a delicate nnd perfect suggest
ibility as to be nblo Inter to bo freed' In
turn from these samo miseries.

young artist, offered herself for this

put to sleep the subject's hand wns
placed In the hand of the aflllcted
woman. In a few moments the subject
underwent an Indescribable transfor

ing convulsions. The patient, however,
grasped t,ho hand of tho doctor, declar
ing with emotion that she was "liber

On the order of M. Mnngln, the lat
ter uttered a stream of words touch
ing the church, words which for seven
years she had refused to utter under
all kinds of compulsion. In the mean
while, the young artist threw herself
on the tlnor and attempted to heat her
head against the wall, crying out In
the Niuiio manner In which the patient
was wont to do. The latter, pnwflng
from words to acts, touched n holy
medal, handled a crucifix and made a
short prayer, all this quietly and with
out any hesitation, while the subject
moaned and threw herself about more
and more.
Being assured of the complete "lib

Mnngln lot the subject sleep while ho
made suggestions of a soothing nature

women were In a perfectly tranquil
state. Since this time the young wife
