Mental and Bodily OycrWOrk.

The London Lancet says that mental and
bodily overwork is the most general and the
least regarded form OF illness in this age. Its
treatment requires that due attention be paid
to the two great essentials of timely rest and
wholesome diet. A man, says Tie Lancet,
may work on in liberal scale provided he will
interrupt its continuity by timely and ade-
quate intervals of rest, and will eat heartily
OF plain food. So long as appetite and sleep
are unimpaired, there is little danger OF over
work, but the failure Of either is natures
warning signal that the strain must be re-
