The 'Mnste.rton : " Age," referring to Professor Braemar's appearance .in Mastei-ton, says: Professor Braemar, the hypnotist, introduced find demonstrated with subjects, a number being from the audience, mesmerism, catalepsy and hypnotism. Having trained the" necessary

power over his subjects, th© professor suggested that they go through a number of roles, iand in each case thp- desired effect was gained. In two or three instances the audience was roused to fits of lauorhter by tho antics cut by tho

subifi-crs. who, in being awakened by ci snap of the fingers, appeared to feel sorry for .themselves. In one instance they are made to holieve that they have somehow or other been transferred to a j particularly fine strawberry bed, where ttjo Tnioat'lndCormis 7>eilfrornmnctV '?» enacted as they fonst amongst the fruit ■which is not there. In another stagetho subjects are made to .ride on brooms, which they appenr to think are horses. Th c manner in1 which they career round the stage- with their inififrinary steeds is funny in the extreme, while v suppmed dog" fight is also witnessed by the, subjects, who appear deeply imnrosasd. ! « The "performance is . interesting till t through, and woll worth seeing. |
