Show SAYS HYPNOTISM IS EASY Prof. Munsterberg Declares He Can Bring Anybody He Ever Met Under Complete Subjection. Prof. Hugo Muensterberg, the Harvard Har-vard psychologist, says he can hypnotize hypno-tize anybody he ever met, according to a Cambridge (Mass.) dispatch to the New York Evening Telegram. Ha knows Kaiser Wilhelm very well, and said he would not except the kaiser. The Harvard summer school students were told how easy it is to hypnotize anybody, almost as easy as "rolling off a log." The professor predicted a great field in the future for the expert In mind control. He said: "Hypnotism presents a vast field for the expert. It is so easy to produce the hypnotic trance that anyone can do 't on others, but it is exceedingly dangerous when thoughtlessly or ig-norantly ig-norantly used. It is simply a case of increasing the suggestibility of the mind, and it can be used in medicine to cure the morphine fiend, the alcoholic alco-holic fiend and all who have abnormal desires. Often only a slight hypnosis Is necessary to effect a cure for nervous nerv-ous disorders. "Medicine, equally with law, is to be the food for the psychologist of the future. Every .mental trait can be measured exactly by almost perfect standards. The old methods are obsolete ob-solete and the whole science of diagnosis diag-nosis has been carried into the field of experiment. Psycho-analysis has a great future." . |
