Curing Insanity by Irritating the
Skin.

There are many cases published in the
medical Journals relating to insanity, says
Dr. Brown -Sequard, showing that large
number OF patients have been cured sud
denly by means of irritation of the skin
that was either accidental or employed by
physician. There are other means more
curious and equally effective, as in the
case | am about TO mention. A patient in
lunatic asylum met another one who
struck his head and broke his Uranium on
the right side The brain ooZad out, a
good deal was lost, and the pa.icnt was
cured of his insanity and epilepsy This
is rather dangerous means of treatment,
however, and of course | only speak of it
TO show that an irritation brought to the
brain may often cure 1t is in that way
that bold surgeons-as many there were in
this country in the period from 1925 to
1S59-who have brought their instruments
TO the Uranium and made an opening
there, in cases of epilepsy, in search of a
disease at that place that did not exist,
have very frequently cured their patients
But not because they have taken away the
disease that they supposed existed there,
but because they produced an irritation
which has done It.
But may add that it is not necessary to
open the Uranium, though it has been done
10 my knowledge more than fifty times in
this country. AL that IS called for is an
Irritation of the skin of the Uranium and
of the fibrous band that covers the bone
between the skin and brain. Irritation
there has very good chance of curing
epilepsy in many very obstinate cases.
There are many cases on record showing
that an Inflammation in almost any of the
organs of the body is sufficient 10 check
insanity. In the same way other atfec-
tons of the brain, such as amaurOsis or
paralysis, may be cured suddenly without
any cause that we can find, but with good
ground certainly to believe that irritation
has acted so as to produce a change in the
cells of the brain and diminish their NOR
bid activity For there are clear cases in
which those affections have been cured by
such irritation Those alterations of cells
that were producing arrest Of the power of
sight or paralysis have been submitted to
an irritation of parts of the skin or of
some viscus, and this irritation going to
the morbid part and producing a change
in the activity of those cells has cured the
disease. So that double mechanism of
arrest may take place in all these cases.
There is in the brain an irritation starting
from the place where is a disease. That
we can see after deati. That irritation
goes to parts at distance and acts on cells
to stop their activity; but another irrita-
tion starting from some parts of the
body goes 10 the parts that are diseased
and there acts on the morbidly active
cells and stops their activity. so that
the effect that resulted from the disease
ceased. So one phenomenon of arrest
produced the cessation of another.

Dear Sir-Your Fayorite Prescription has
done my wife world of good. She has

several years. / have so much confidence in
it that l would be perfectly willing to war

be glad to get hold Of relief at any expense.

never had any occasion to extol one before.
Very truly yours, GEO. b. WHITING.

-Girders, angle irons and other similar
large masses of iron are often placed in ex-
posed situations where damp air. steam
and acid vapors have access. If the iron
be put up in the rough it very speedily
rusts, and under favorable conditions the
corrosion soon reaches a dangerous point.
Contractors generally agree to supply such
irons painted in three coats of minimum,
which, honestly done, would toa certain
extent protect the metal: but as a rule only
one thin coat is applied and the slightest
abrasion exposes the iron. A new and
peculiar mode of treating iron is the fol-
lowing: The metal is heated until il
touched with oil or fat il frizzles and then
Is plunged into vat of mixed oil and
grease This mode of treating cast-iron is
therefore far superior to any painting, -
as the oleaginous matter actually pene-
trates the pores and prevents oxidation for
a very long time, while it does ne, prevent
painting if desirable afterward. -Irdde

This feature requires the closest scrutiny to
prevent it from leading to abuses. The plan
adopted by the publishers of the DIRECTORY to
secure correct and trustworthy reports is rigid
in its requirements, and is adhered TO with
impartiaIity. Successful publishers, who have
something to gain by a comparison, are gener-
ally prompt, not only to send reports in con-
formity, but give Messrs. Geo. P. Rowell & Co.
such information as enables them to weed out
unsubstantiated statements OF pretenders in
Journalism. The popularity of the book, and
the general confidence in its accuracy and good
faith, are attested by the immense body of adj
