Those selected for the hypnotism were now drawn up in an irregular line in front of the stage, their eyes fixed on vacancy, their heads bent forward, perfectly motionless. Each was then given a suggestion. One was to be a newsboy, and sell papers. Another was given a broomstick and told to hunt game in the woods before him.Another was given a large rag doll and told that it was an infant, and that he must look among the audience and discover the father. He was informed that he could tell who the father was by the similarity and the color of the eyes.
These hypnotic suggestions were made in a loud tone, Miss Flint being no nearerone subject than another. The bare suggestion was given, as, "Now, thinkthat you are a newsboy, and are selling papers," or, "Now think that youare hunting and are going into the woods to shoot birds."
