fiaiulow made a spring that earned

with his right hand. He may be

'Do you think you are strong

the doctor.
"Yes," answered SandoWi with a

"Do you think you could push any

"Yes."
"You can't push me over. Try It."
He did try. He put bis bands
against the shoulders of the slender
physician and seemed to push with
all his strength, but the other did not
budge.
"You haven't the strength of a

After this be was told to return to

Hypnotism baa been defined as
