THE NORWOODS.

ANOTHER CROWDED JFTOUSE. If Professor Norwood has not hypnotised everybody in iMasterton, he has magnetised the great majority of the public. For the last couple of nights they have just been falling over one another to get to the Town Hall in time fo secure a seat. La«t Night the building was full to suffo-' cation. There was not seating room for a midget after eighti o'clock; *As on the opening night, the Professor and Miss Winifrid Norwood simply paralysed the audience. It was not so much what they did, as the way they did it. Hypnotism may be a science and mental telepathy an art; but unless they are demonstrated by those who know their business, they are stale and unprofitable. Professor Norwood knows his business. He knows just how to hypnotise, and galvanise, and humorise the people. And he does it right there without an apparent effort. He keeps them in a state of intense hilarity from the time that he passes his hands deftly over the smiling profiles of his subjects until ho says "good-night, and call again to-morrdw." The Professor will appear to-night for a last time, when he will present an entire change of programme, features in which will bo the hypnotic statuary, the serenade, the hypnotic sleigh-ride, etc. The hall will again be crowded.
