Sir Robert spoke upon the effect of emotion on the physical system and the organic functions of the body, these being suflicicat in many cass" to produce fatal effect. Herelated maur instances where dar- ing the war an extraordinary effect was pro- daced of inen being so afraid of being afraid and failing in an emergency, that they developed what was called shell shock. In a large number of those cases they were cured by suggestion. In the same way beneficial effects might be pro- daes by the station we lourdes firmly wrought, for in- crowds going to convited that they would be held. In the report of the committee mentioned there was an insistener that spirtual heal ing was

dae to faith in the Almighty. The effect given by such faith was not to be RUSSO-ASIATIC BANK regarded in any way as being supernatur

It was emphasized that in the case of organic disease there should be no attempt to disperse with medical healing. The two might go together and the effect on the mind would readily assist the borly: but the committee werd omphatic that sick persians could not look to the clergy to do dcctors' work.
