BENEFICIAL EFFECTS OF CRYING. A celebrated
French surgeon has lntsly published long dis
sertation on the beneficial influence Of grooming
and crying on the nervous system. He contends
that grooming and crying are the two grand oper-
atoms by which nature allays anguish--that Le
has uniformly observed that those patients who
give way to their natural feelings, more speedily
recover from accidents and operations than those
who suppose that it is unworthy q man to betray
such symptoms Of cowardice as either to groan or
to cry. lie is always pleased by the crying and
violent roaring of patient during the time he is
undergoing violent surgical operation, because
he is satisfied that be will thereby soothe bis
vous system SO as to prevent fever, and insure
favorable termination, He relates the ease of a
man, who, by crying and bawling, reduced his
pulse from one hundred and twenty-six to sixty,
In the course of two hours. That some patients
often have great satisfaction in groanipg, and
that hysterical patients experience great relief
from crying, are facts which no person will deny.
As to restless and hypocbondriacal subjects, or
those who are never happy but when they are un-
der some course Of medical or dietetic treatment,
the French surgeon assures them that they cannot
do better than to groan all day and cry all night.

siraoie as place of residence, especially
during the summer and fall months.
