As a matter of fact he did not mesmerize Helen, and she knew perfectly well how the trick was done. Those who have read previous books of this series are also in the secret. Joe waved his hands in front of Helen's face. She swayed slightly in her chair. Then her eyes closed as though against her will, and she seemed to sleep. "She is now in the proper condition for the trick," said Joe.
"It's all very well for you to snort and laugh, Si Klegg," persisted Shorty. "You don't know her. I sneered at her, too, at first, but when I was left alone with her she seemed to mesmerize me. I found myself talkin' about marryin' her before I knowed it, and the next thing I was on the p'int o' actually marryin' her.
All he did was to mesmerize them two or three times, and they soon recognized his power and obeyed him. The thing seems simple and easy enough, now that we understand it, and we have a mysterious impression that we could walk out into a jungle and subdue the first tiger we met by making a few passes at him with our hands.
If my conscience would allow me to make a change, but that is out of the question. I wonder what he's making those passes in the air for, with his hands. I seem to be the object of them. Can he be trying to mesmerize me? I don't quite like it. There's something uncanny about it." The colonel muttered to himself, "It has an effect on him, I can see it myself. That's enough for one time, I reckon.
When he reached a safe distance he turned around, shook a fist at them, and screamed back: "My papa is going to have you all arrested and locked up in the calaboose." "Calaboose, nothing!" jeered Jimmy. "You all time wanting to put somebody in the calaboose 'cause they mesmerize you. You got to be mesmerized 'cause it's in the Bible."
As she knew the truth, she was telling it to him, as surely as she was doing her skillful best to mesmerize him. But the Secret Service is made up of men trained against that. "Come!" she said, and stepping down she took his arm.
"You remember that Jacob Meyer wanted to mesmerize you?" "I am not likely to forget it," she answered. "Well, last night he did mesmerize you." "What?" she said. "What? Oh! how dreadful! Now I understand it all. But when?" "When you were sound asleep, I suppose.
Those possessing them, and thereby having the power to mesmerize, may subjugate the will of those who are susceptible to mesmeric influences, and hold them in a complete and terrible slavery. The oftener the victim yields to the will of the mesmerist, the stronger will his power become. There is only one means by which the person under this influence can be free.
Miss Clifford, you must let me mesmerize you once again for a few minutes only, for then we will waste no time on past histories, and we shall find the gold. Unless, indeed," he added by an afterthought, and looking at her sharply, "you know already where it is; in which case I need not trouble you." "I do not know, Mr. Meyer. I remember nothing about the gold." "Which proves my theory.
Old Mother Shattuck keeps roomers, but she won't have a woman in the house. I reckon you 'll have to try it at the hotel I'll get you in there if I have to mesmerize the clerk you'll find it a bit noisy though." "Oh, I thank you so much. I don't mind the noise, so it is respectable." He laughed, good humoredly.
