WIFE-HYPNOSIS.
HUSBANDS HAVE THE RIGHT. if wifeTxinsents. London, Sept. 9. May a husband hypnotise his wife with her consent? lhe Vienna courts have decided that he may. In a case in which clairvoyance was used for the detection of a thief a husband was charged with causing bodily harm to his wife, who, however, declared that she felt better after a trance. An expert gave evidence that hypnosis was not dangerous unless repeated at short intervals. The police and the doctors are striving to suppress amateur hypnotism in Vienna, where it is extensively practised.
