The so-called Nancy school, on the other hand, led by Bernheim, deny the pathological character of Hypnosis altogether, claiming that the hypnotic condition is nothing more than a special form of ordinary sleep brought on artificially by suggestion. Hypnotic suggestion, say they, is only an exaggeration of an influence to which all persons are normally subject.
"You are most kind, Colonel Bernheim," she said, in her sweetest tones, as she passed him; "I owe you many thanks." "You owe me none, madame," was the rather gruff answer. Then he went out, and closed the door with altogether unnecessary vigor. She turned and looked after him. "What a great bear he is, Armand," she said, with a confidential air. I stiffened. "You wished to see me, Mrs.
Moore stopped with his shirt half off and did the same. "There is only one better in Valeria," said Bernheim. "So!" said I. "And he?" The grey eyes twinkled and he actually smiled as he answered. "Colonel Moore, of Your Highness's Personal Staff." It was my turn to be surprised. "Then, he is a very modest gentleman," I said. "Like master like man," was the ready Irish reply.
I had liked Bernheim's manner, and I was willing to risk an Irishman's faith to his chief. I asked, only, whether either was an intimate of the Duke of Lotzen. "That is a perfectly reasonable question," said Frederick instantly. "I know that Bernheim has never liked the Heir Presumptive and that Moore is not a favorite with the Prince." "Then, I am quite content with them," said I.
I nodded. "It's the same," said I. "And what I want, is to hear all that occurs between Madame Dalberg and this visitor." Gerst smiled. "That will be easily arranged, Your Highness the place is already provided." "The concealed Gallery?" asked Bernheim, quickly? "Yes, Colonel." Then, to me, he explained: "Madame's reception room was once a part of a small, state dining-room.
Bernheim narrates a case of outrage effected in the hypnotic condition, which was brought to light by a trial in the South of France. As to the therapeutic value of hypnotism, with the exception of some minor benefits in hysteric cases and in insomnia, the authors must confess that its use in Medicine seems very limited.
He considered. "No," said he, "I understand why you want them. I'll come they will be discreet. And the Princess would wish it so. I'll bring her, myself." Then I rode to the Metzen. Bernheim had preceded me and, with the manager of the Hotel, awaited me at a side door. The corridor was dimly lighted but I drew my cape well over my face and, is a moment, we were in a small reception room.
Monsieur Bernheim ordered him to step out. 'You tell me to do what is impossible, he again replied, and he did not move. He had to be allowed to go to bed again, and the whole time the experiment lasted he maintained an obstinate and ill-tempered air."
"Very readily, sir; the gallery was so designed that its noises would not disturb those in the dining-room." "We are in good luck, Bernheim," I said. "We shall need all of it, sir, with eight spectators." And he was right. It was foolish to risk success for only a sentimental reason.
But he continued to make his hypnotic experiments on the poor population of Nancy and they finally attracted the attention of some of the leading medical men there. Bernheim became convinced and Dumont, the physiologist Beaunis joined the movement, and in the eighties we find Nancy the center of hypnotic interest to which medical men from everywhere made their pilgrimage.
