It Invariably icslst with all their
stiength anil hang li.uk In nn agony of
tlie.nl and repulsion. They don't want
to kill themselves, but some power
sttonger than will, stionser even than
love of life, dtuw.s them Ineslstlblv
over the blink.
"People with this singular Inllitnlty,"
t ontlnued the doctor, "should never ex
pose themselves to danger, becuuse the
Impulse aits autoniatlt.illy and may at
any moment pass beyond cnnttol. On
one occasion, when I was cnnsldotably
younger than 1 am at present, I under
took lo cure a patient v lit couldn't
look fiom a lu iglit, ami the expeilettce
bit an i U'lhiMlUK Itnptesslon on my
mini!, lie was a big, strapping fellow
of thhtv-ilve or so, a cabinetmaker by
trade, anil the last man, appaiently. to
be bothered by netvnus fancies, I had
an Idea that by making him look per
sistently Into space for a certain length
of time each day 1 could drive away
the dread and the Impulse. So T took
hliu to the top of a six-slot y building
that had a Hat loot' and told him to lie
down on his stomach so only tho upper
pait of his luce piojectetl over the
edge, and look at the street. He was
very teluctant to tty It. Tin aftnltl
to, doctor.' he said earnestly, if 1 do,
my legs will fly up In the air and I'll
go over sine.'
" 'Oh. nonsense.' 1 said, laughing.
'How In the world could our legs fly
up In the nit'.' How can you possibly
fall when your whole body Is stretched
out Hat on the roof'.''
" i tlon't care,' he Insisted, doggedly,
I know my legs will liy up In the air
If I try to look over the edge.'
"After a great deal of persuasion I
finally Induced him to lie down as 1
had tlliected, telling him to shut his
eyes until he became composed. As
soon ns he opened them and looked
Into the stieet a strong shudder lan
tluough his whole body and I knew he
must be suffering moitnl agony, but 1
was determined to go through the les
son, nnd urged him stiongly not to
draw back. Possibly a minute elapsad.
and then a shoiklng thing occupied
Suddenly and without the slightest
warning he seized the edge of the
parapet with both hands, tlt.vv his
body violently forwnid. at the saute
lime llluglug up his legs, ami would
undoubtedly have gone oel lite ledgt
ir I had not tluown myself lnsuintij
on his back.
"The movement was puielv i omuls
Ive nnd Involuntary. He could no mote
help It than he could help breathing,
but It made my blood tun cold to think
what might have happened. How could
I have explained myself had he fallen?
I might readily have been suspected of
murder. 1 diagged him back and wo
went tlownstalis, a ptetty badly agl
tnted couple. Since then 1 have tried
no mote expeilments ulong that line,"
