MISCELLANEOUS READING.
The Body's Action on the Mind.
Volumes are now written and apokep

Volumes are now written and spoken
upon the effect Of the mind upon the
body. Much of it is true. Bot I wish
little more was thought of the effect OF
the body on the mind. You who be-.
lieve yourselves overwhelmed with ankle
ties, but are able every day to walk up
Regent street, or ont in the country, to
take your meals with others in other
rooms, ETC., you little know how much
your anxieties are thereby lfghtened;
you little know how intensified they be-
come to those who can have no change;
how the very walls of their sick-rooms
seem hung with their cares; how the
ghosts of their troubles hannt their beds;
how impossible it is for them to escape
from pursuing thought without some
help from variety.
Z Apatient can just as much move his
leg when it is fractured, as change his
thoughts when no external help from
variety is given him. This is, indeed,
one of the main sufferings of sickness;
just as the fixed posture is one of the
main sufferings of the broken limb.
1t is an eVer-recurring wonder to see
educated people, who call themselves
nurses, acting thus. They vary their
own objects, their own employments,
many times day; and while nursing ID
some bedridden sufferer, they let him lie
there staring at the dead wall, without
any change of object to enable him to
vary his thoughts; and it never even oc-
ours to them at least to move his bed, 80
that he can look out of the window. No,
the bed is to be always left 10 the dark
est, dullest, remotest part Of the room.
/ think it is very common error
among the well, to think that with
little more self-controlp the sick might,
if they choose, dismiss painful thoughts
which. "aggraVate their disease" etc.
Believe me, almost any sick person who
behaves decently we'll, exercises more
self-control every moment of his day than
you will ever know till you are sick your
self Almost every step that crosses his
room is painful to him; almost every
thought that crosses his brain is painful
to him; and if he can speak without
being savage, and look without being
unpleasant, he is exercising self-control.
Suppose you have been up all night,
and instead of being allowed TO have
your cup of tea, you were to be told
that you ought to exercise self-control,
what should you say? Now, the nerves
of the sick are always in the state that
yours are in after you have been up all
night.
We will suppose the diet of the sick TO
be cared for. Then tais state of nerves
is most frequently to be relieved by care
in afording them a pleasant view, ju-
dicious variety as to flowers and pretty
things. Light by itself will often relieve
it. The craving for the return of day,
which the sick SO constantly evincs, is
generally nothing but the desire for light,
the remembrance Of the relief which a
variety of objects before the eye affords
to the harassed sick mind.-florence
