From sleepIessness to Insanity.

Sleep1essncss is almost always accom-
panied by indigestion in some one or other
of its protean forms, and the two condi-
tions react upon the aggravate each other.
If rest can not be Obtained, and if the vital
machine can not be supplied with a due
amount of fuel, and, moreover, fails to
utilize that which is supplied, mental and
bodily collapse can not be far distant. The
details of the downward process vary, but
the result is much the same in all cases.
SleepleSsness and loss of appetite are fol-
lowed by loss of flesh and strength, nervous
irritabiity alternating with depression
palpitation, and other arrangements of the
heart, especially at night, and many of
those symptoms grouped together under the
old term "hypochondrasis." When this
stage has been reached the borderlands of
insanity" are within measurable distance
even if they have not already been reached

in the Pacific Islands.

\ Blue-book just published discloses
(says the London correspondent OF the
''Nescastle Chronicle'O the existence OF
a condition of things which is discredit-
able to our boosted civilization. 1t
seems that for several years past adven-
turers belonging chiefly to England,
France, Germany and America have
been doing brisk trade among the ma
tives of the Pacific Islands in arms and
alcohol. By free indulgence in the lat
ter, the instructive savagery OF the poor
people is considerably augmented !;
while the former afford them an easy
means of INDUCING their brutal passions.
AS result the aboriginal population Of
the islands of the Western Pacific is fast
being exterminated. An endeavor has
been made to estab an international
agreement for the regulation of the
traffic in rifles and spirits with the
islanders, but, though correspondence on
the subject has been going on between
the various courts of Europe and the
United States since February, 1884, the
Great powers have not as yet been able
to agree Glasgow paper.

compulsory segregation of lepers is a
measure which should receive the sane
ton and approval of the Colonial Office.
The registrar of the College replied as
follows: ''The College is quite aware
that there is much difference of opinion
respecting the communicability of lep-
rosy, and that many Colonial practition-
ers and inhabitants do not concur in the
views expressed by the College in its re-
port in 1867. The College is OF opinion
that if there be any elements of contagion
in leprosy they are not more to be
dreaded than are those in the case Of
syphilis, which is not commonly co"sld-
cred to justify segregation on the part OF
those afflicted. The College believes
that leprosy is not contagious in the con-
ventional sense of the term, but if at all
Is only in a low degree, and under ex-
ceptional circumstances. The College is
OF opinion that further investigation into
some of the more reconcile points re-
speeding the pathology of the disease
would confirm or remove any doubt that
may still remain as to the question of
communica bility, and it therefore recon-
mends that the Government should in
stitute such an investigation as this Col
lege might direct, and report on to the
Government when completed. While
the College does not believe compulsory
segregation to be justiiable, the en-
enlargement of leper asylums or houses
properly regulated it considers most de-
sirable, such asylums not to be regarded
as prisons, and so arranged as not to
prove foci for intensifying the disease,
but as refugees where kindness, care and
enjoyment of the simple though neces-
sary conditions of healthy life would
be ensured. In this direction the Col
lege strongly recommends State inter
ference and assistance"

Anti.SIans Society.

Recently a large number of Chicago
girls met for the purpose of forming a
ladies' anti-slang society. The meeting
was called to order and a president
elected who spoke as follows before she
resumed her seat: "Really girls, I'm
badly ratified by the honor conferred
upon me to give you much of my CUFF,
It's the first time | ever tumbled to any
thing of this sort, and l hardly know
just how to catch on. However, I'll try
to be sufficiently up to snuff not to let
any flies light on me while doing the
President-of-the-soci act. I'm with
you in this move, and don't any of you
forget it. All over our land slang words
and phrases are multiplying like flies in
sorghum time, and it is our duty to help
knock this crying evil as silly as possible.
Let our motto be Shoot the Slangist. !"

THE SPREAD OF LEPROSY.

A short time ago Sir Henry Holland,
Secretary of State for the Colonies, find
ing that the question of the compulsory
segregation of lepers has attracted the
attention of the various Colonial Gov
ernments, one Of which has passed an
Act on the subject, and that circum-
stances might easily arise calling for a
definite decision of the Secretary of
State, wrote to the President of the
Royal College of Physicians inquiring
whether the College still held the opin-
ion expressed in 1867 and 1876, that
leprosy was not contagious. Sir Henry
Holland pointed out that this opinion
has never been accepted by the general
public OF those colonies where, also, a
section OF the local medical practitioners
have held Persistently the opposite view,
which has decidedly increased of late
years, while it is supported by a grow
ing desire of the community generally to
guard themselves against danger from so
Ioathsome a disease. Finally Sir II.
Holland requested the President to in
form him whether, in his opinion, the

Concerning whittier's Barbara Frietchie

Concerning Whittier's Barbara Frietchie
Every one is familiar with Whittier's
poem Of Barbara Freitchie," bowed with
her four-score years and ten" who waved
from her window in Frederick, Md, as
Stonewall Jackson, at the head of his rebel
legions, passed through the town. As the
story goes, Jackson ordered his troops to fire
on the flag, which they did. At the cele-
bration of Washington's birthday in Balti-
more Gen. Joe Johnston, of Confederate
fame referring to the poem, said
"Not only is every allegation in the story
of Bari ara Freitchie false, but there
never existed any foundation for it.
1 was born and reared in Frederick. 1 had
known Barbara Frietchie all my life. At
that time she was 81 years old and had been
bed-ridden for soma time. She never saw a
Confederate soldier and probably no one of
any kind. When Jackson passed through
Frederick the line of his march was several
squares from the Frietchie house. He never
passed it, and, in all probability, never
saw it "-Washington Cor Chicago News
