CURES EFFECTED BY PSYCHOTHERAPY,

THE HONGKONG DAILY PRESS, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 5TH, 1911,

Avista of the wondrous possibilities of psychotherapy is opened up, says a Londou a per by the success aɔlieved by its maxus in the case of a man named Macrae, who was taken some weeks ago to the Westministar Workhona saffering from total loss of memory. Maoise was unable to remember where he came from or whether he had any friends.

The case was taken in hand by Mr. Haydn Brown, & medical man who has made a special study of psychotherapy, with the rasult that Macrae is now on the road to rapid recovery.

Mr. Brown explained his treatment to an Express representative at Catharham.

I would like first of all to emphasise," he nid, "that I do not practise hypnotism, but payoliotherapy in its mest advanced form. I nover so the word 'hypnotisn. One might just as well speak of the most modern devolop. ments of aeronautics es tor balloons, or call diamond a piece of glass because it looks like one and because they are both crystals.

THE RUBBER SHABE POSITION,

From The Times of Marok. 6th wo take the following:--

In the present iutoresting state of tho rubber market it is useful to review briefly the general position both as regards the raw material and the shares of the companies Dealing first with laval touched last year calzinsted in prices in the raw material, it is to be noted that the high April lest of over 12s, par 15. for both Pars and plantation fine rubber, the masimum quotation being as high as 12a, 5d. par lb., compared with the price at the beginning of 1910 of 78. 73d. interesting chart of rabb r prices for the past for fae Para and 7s. 11d. for plantation. The five years published by Mesers. Gow, Wilson,

Stanton brings out many interesting facts, but although it is made clear that the record prices of 1910 were avotated with very low stocks in London and Liverpool. it is generally admitted that prions for

tie

tax material svare than carried to level which was of warranted by market coalitions. The subsequent slump in the pries of rubber resulted in the fall, Ake the riso which it followed, bang overdone, the quota- tion at one time being carried below 5s. It is not easy to predict the future of the rising market, which in the auctions that have just been held has carried the. price of Para np to ed with quotations a' the close of last year of 78. 1d. and plant tion to 78.91. per lb., compar

5s, 6d, and 65 64, per ib. The average of fine Para in 1909-1910 was âd. 111. per lb., although it is interesting to recall that two years provi andy the average price was ander 4s. por lb.

Much depends upon the relation between th increase in production and consumption. Mr. pointed to the world's annual onusumption of Arthur Lampard recently quoted figures which

This anual rate of increase ia while he is earnestly talking to a friend, or that consumption is believel to be about 10 per cent. In view of the growing production from the Middle East, it is significant that stops are trendy being taken by Brazilian growers for the market, with a view te preventing severe regulating the amount of rubber coming upon

fluctuations in the prices of the material. It is,. however, beloved by many of those associated with the trade that a considerably larger quantity of rubber could be consumed if the supply were available. The anctions which have recently largest amount of plantation rabber yet sent to taken place have, in spite of the foot that the

keon demand from American and European our sale was available, been distinguished by a uvere, and it seems clear that consumers, who have not been buying at all trṛely during recent mouths, havo by no means astivlled their present requirements,

Have you ever noticed that if you stop a ruan as he is going out of a house, and ho happens to stand on the doormat, he will wipe his boots automatically? That is the working of the subliminal" consciousnesK, the region of the brain which is concerned When this sub-conscions with memory. region is out of order and total lass of memory results, this may be due either to an accident or and this applies to the case of Macras-to some nervous disorder, inherited or acquired.

The treatment consists in training this subliminal disorder into order. As thie man was so defective in his sub-conscious state that he could remember nothing, I knew he was likely to be a difficult case, and so be proved.

The Erst treatment had prasticntis no result. Knowing that class of case so well, it did not discourage me in the slightest degree, I made suggestions, ator I raduned him in the sublim- inal statu, that his memory would gradually come back, either in his dreams or in his waking state, that he need, not worry about himself, that he would get porfoolly all right.

A POWERFUL TEST.

"The second tinte I thought I would give one of the most powerful tests that I could think of in such a zo to his autem-tie faculties. I thought by his look he had been a soldier. I gse him three words of command-harply without any waraing: Attention! Stand eney! He carried the out. Where did yost get the knowledge of this? I asked, "you must Live beau a soldier. I must have been, he replied. But he could not remember that ho had been.

"I had excited his automatic faculty, which showed me I was getting on the right track. proceeded to treat him again for an hour, and found him slightly better. This second treat ment was followed in a day or two by the reaol leotion that he had been a soldier; he had dreamt of active service and that he had fallen from his horse and had been in South Africa.

"After an interval of three weeks I treated him for the third time in the presence of two members of the board of guerilians. All present noticed that his resistance was very strong indeed, hat I had to remember that the amount of resistance is commensurate with the accident of the loss of memory.

"In automatic loss of memory as soon as you suggest to a man that he thinks the anti-auto suggestion comes in, I cannot Suggest some- thing to him and he gives active indication that the opposite will take place. He opposed me, but not wilfully. Hence as soon as ever I get over the barrior the mon is oured. I suggested for instance, that his arm would drop if he held it out. He. at once held it out stiff for an incredible length of time; it must have boon terribly hard work to keep it out straight so loug.

TREATMENT BUCČEEDINO,

I visited it for the fourth treatment on Wednesday last. How are von getting on?' I asked. Everything is coming back, he replied, a whole mass of things. I remember everything up to six years ago, and a good many things up to ten years ago. I feel as though a mist were clearing from my eyes, and I just seem as if I were coming out of a dream." Ho romamborod having had epileptio seizures, he remembered the doator who attend. ed him, and he remembered that he fell off his horse in South Africa after an epileptic seizure, "In my opinion unt only will the man recover his memory, but his whole nervous system will be greatly better. It is like making ma over agnio,

"This treatment is like unscrewing a tap that is too tight. Each treatment reduces the neurotia teusion and brings order out of chaos, The patient has nothing do between each treatment. The treatment does him good in the same way that a man's eul deve him good; he is not always eating t

"It limits the ideas to oneness, Mr. Brown explained.

"The patient becomes so sick of oneness that his annsciousness falls into ahoy anos. He is conscious, but does not want to be ¦ bothered with anything; he makes no solive thought or active mascular notion-just as when you first wake in the morning. And in the sub-conscious state your senses are far more alert han in the active; the faculties are six times more alert."

Psychotherapy has undoubtedly a great future in all cases of hallucination, epilepsy, and nervoas disorders of every kiad.

It will be noted that as compared with the prices ruling during the boom of last year the majority of the shares included in this list would show a margin for further improvement, if the market conditions which obtained last year were to be repeated. This, however, dependa проп so many factors that it would be extremely hasardous to make any profiction. The many companies dealt in by the rubber market com- prise, in addition to the regular producers and dividend-payers, well represented in the accom panying tables, a considerable anuber of under- takings which have just reached the stage of pro- duction, and may therefore to shortly expected to enter the dividõud list, while there are a large number of enterprises the prosperity of which is still in the making.

While, as already intimated, too great reliance cannot be placed upon the statistics available, it appears fairly certain that in the near future at all events thore is no possibility of Bapply overtaking demand. Looking ahead it would seem that in the course of two or three years, unless there is a material increase in consumption, the statistical position will be turning in favour of consumers. The work's requirements of rabber for 1915 are estimated at abent 15000 tons, and it is suggested, quits apart from other sources, 'that the iddle East may produce as much as 100,000 bins in that your.
