Nothing can so stimulate the student to a desire to become intimately acquainted with a language and its literature as contact with a master of the language.

Hypnotism, or artificial somnambulism, has now attained a scientific recognition. It is the mesmeric trance in which the so-called spiritualistic phenomena arise...
