They Can Not Only Hyp- notize, but Can Be Hyp- notized By GARRETT P. SERVISS. Not all the eloquence of enthusiastic naturalists describing the beauty of col- oring and the grace of motion that characterize many serpents oan persuade the average person to admire those reptiles or even willingly to put up {with their pres- | ence. There ia no doubt that the choloe ot the serpent to rep- resent the - de- stroyer of man's happiness in the Garden of Rden was based upon in- stinctive repug- nance for the lurk- ing, malignant na- ture of the ophi- dian, whose lethal weapon is poison. To the questionable sort of compensa- tion which nature bestowed upon the serpant in ita fangs was added another gift by way of corollary, the power of fascination. The existence of such a power has been strongly denfed, and no doubt its manifestations have been ex- aggerated; nevertheless its reality seoms to have been established. Cases of fas- cination by serpents of birds and other small anim have been too frequently reported to admit of serious doubt on the subject Bvidently it is simply a kind of hypnotism, and based, like human Lypotism, on the effects of raythmical {mpressions made upon the nervous sys- tem. Kxperiment has proved that the monotonous swinging of a glittering ob. jeot before the eyes will throw many men and women into hypnotic sleep. When a serpent charmas, or fascinates a bird or small quadruped it employs & similar method. It aways ita head with glittering eyes, or sets the brilllantly colored colls into silent rhythmic move- ment, within sight of its victim, and the latter gradually y'elds to the Influence. But the most dangerous serpents are themselves subject to this very hypnotic control, a fact which is the basls of the proceedings of the serpent charmers of India, and those of other countries where venomets snakes abound. Music, or the monotonous reptition of musical notes, appears to be the most ef- & new in the way of a bolero ement, and Paquin has suc- eline de sole embroidered in ero, .By Gouverneur Morris and Charles W.
