NEURASTrtENlA.
By Or(. ALVAH H. DOTY. Dnrlng tbe past few yeara tbe pnb- Hc have tiecooie familiar with the t«nn "neurasthenia." wtiich in medloil parlance raeaua a we&knean or ex- haaatlon of tbe nervous srstem. How¬ ever, considerable license baa tieen used in connection witb this word, for It is commonly applied to various forms of ezcitment and fatigue and otber conditions which have no sfieclal relation to a breakdown of 'these organs.
The cause of oeurastbenla is not difficult to explain, for we have already learred tlnit nitnre Is very tolerant and the resisting |>ower of the body la able to ovc^rcome the fatlgae cansed by extended mental or physical exer tlon, provided It does not last too long bat if It is continued t>«yond n certain point tbe equilibrium is dlsturb<>d nnd the functions of the various organn become impaired, sometimes seriously so. As these changes take place nlow ly, considerable time is required to develop neurasthenia and recovery is likewise delayed.
Neurasthenia is In itself a functional trouble, 1. e.. it does not necessarily In¬ volve any organic chnnge or destruc¬ tion of tissue, although the latter con ditlon mny Indirectly be the underlying canse. This* is not the type to wblcb this article referw, but, rather to tbat fonn whh'h Is very common, compara¬ tively mild and ends In complete re¬ covery provided those who are nffected will nld In se<'nrlng this result, for there is no malady the cure of which is so largely In the hnnds of the patient as ncurnstheiUn.
It is quite true that those of a nervous or e.xcltable temperament, which is In Itsolf more or less ex- hauptlng. are more susceptible to neOrasthenia than those of a different disposition; yet It will attack almost anyone who Is continually ininilndful nnil careless of the limits of endurance of the human l)o<ly. Those who nre alTeoted with iienrnstlienla usunlly i)e- come Irritable, iiiirensonable. and as a rule are not pleasant companions; how¬ ever, this should be .ittrlbnted to the unsteady and tired c(m(lltlon of the nervous systetn. Kor this reasoi^also nenrasthenlcs nre ccftistantly seeking treatment for nllments the greater part of which are hnaglnnry.
There Is hut little to he said here re- gardint; the treatment of the ordinary case of neurasthenia to which this nrticle refers beyond the statement that the agent which more than any other Is to be avoided except In some special Instances Is medicine. It Is very dlfflcnlt foi; physicians to im¬ press patients with this fact. This refer.s particularly to headache cures, for these are composed chiefly of coal tnr prwlucts, which are very de¬ pressing to the heart nnd nervous sys¬ tem, nltliough they may afford tern- iwrary relief. Xenrnsthenlc p.Ttlents should know that recovery will take plnce If they lead a (pilot nnd regular life without excitement, eat good nu¬ tritions although plain nnd simple food. In order that the nilninuim amount of work will he thrown iip<-m the digestive tract which Is almost al¬ ways disabled In this nfTectlon. take proper.care of the skin and Indulge In judlVlous exercise. All of these details should be under the direction of n physician.
The lesson which mny be learned from this discussion Is thnt neuras¬ thenia Is due commonly to an Improp¬ er mode of living and a disregard of the rules of personal hygiene rather than overwork or overstudy. and those who are closely confined in occupa¬ tions which are more or less exhaust¬ ing may be reasonably sure that they wtll not 8»iflrer from neurastheiria If they are careful to observe the laws of health.—New York Telephone Re¬ view.

What Is a Telephone?
Rt-.erring to the article "Telephone" by Joseph Husband In the September Issue of the Atlantic Monthlv. the New York Telephone Review says:
"From time to time a writer with a vision which sees beyond the thing It self and past the imagination Is able to describe what the telephone really Is. Tlie pnbllc regard the telephone in as many ways as Individual experiences have demonstrated its usefulness. The men and women emxil.o^'ed In the in¬ dustry often regard the telephone from the staiidi)olnt of the work of the de¬ partment on which they are engaged. It Is time that we, all of us, should en. lurge our vision nnd behold the tele phone in Its entirety, not only the de¬ tails of the business. Its opportunities and possibilities, but also Its meaning.
"There Is nothing that enters so com¬ pletely and fully into the lives of ev- erytMKly as tbe telephone, and once It has entered It becomes Indispensable. Who is there that sometimes does not nee<i to send a quick message nnd re¬ ceive nn Immediate answer; when time and distance must be bridged; when the voice of the speaker and the ear of the hearer must be brought together, it may be across a thousand miles, for weol or woe? Without the telephone, organized society as it exists today would not have been possible nor could it bold together.
"Howcan all this l>e true? Effecausethe telephone consists not only of the instru¬ ments and wires and poles and mech¬ anism which can be sees, and upon wbtcb a tangible value can be placed, bnt aiso of tbe lnvldl>ie and Invaluable intelligence and trained ability, tbe de- rotloa and courage, aad the other qual- Itlea of the men and women wt>o trans¬ form these Inanimate things tbat have been created and designed for the pur-
