MASTER OF MIRTH.

The Great Graves, hypnotist, who comes to the Gayety Airdome for the week commencing Monday, June 19, has the enviable .eiputation of being able to drive dull care out of the minds of the people who compose his audience. This is not done by hypnotising the people in his audience; far from that. Graves does it by giving his audience something to thing about, also something to laugh about from the minute the curtain goes up to the last demonstration performed by his class. To see a class of persons from every-day walks of life hypnotised and caused to wade a stream in mid-winter or to think that they are fishing on the banks of some pleasant stream in t'he month of July or August, or furthermore, made to do other laughable and unseasonable acts before the audience, never fails to bring about a •mion of laughable hysterics and absolute mental abandon among the people behind the footlights. It is fun from start to finish and every amusement seeker should reserve seats early.
