Dr. Parker processes to be surprised at the
increase of insanity among women. He do
clares the increase to bo not less than ten per
cent during the last ten years-all owing to
present styles of wearing the hair and the
modern substitute for bonnet. What non
sense! when the perfect towers of Babal
which our grandmOthers wore piled upon their
caniums produced no such effect, and when, II
we reflect, that among all those races of women
who habitually go without bonnets there is 10
such thing known as insanity.
