I venture to call attention to the grim smile worn by Charles Kingsley in the portrait which prefaces the large edition of his Life and Letters. Charles Kingsley suffered from frequent fits of exhaustion; these are often the results of excessive hypnotism after the limit (at the fifth or sixth effort) of the hypnotist's power has been reached. His brother Henry, we learn from Mr. Kegan Paul's Memoirs, was excessively hypnotisable. His char acter was weaker perhaps than Charles's, but the geniality of his writings bears testimony to his remarkable ability.
