The New Disease.

Don't 60 and fancy you have It now,
as soon as you read what is the latest
disease of civilization. Its name is pa
resis, and it is a progressive breaking
down of the brain and nervous system.
Especially you don't want tc let it get a
hold on your imagination, for nobody
ever RECEIVERS from it. Worst of all it
requires from three to four years to die
from it.
Paresis comes from over excitement
and worry. particularly the excitement
Of success after years Of hard work and
failure. 1t is apt to attack those whose
intellects were not thoroughly disci-
plined in their youth. College gradu-
ates are seldom attacked. The instances
in which it occurs most often are those in
which fast living is united with over
excitement and worry. 1t was paresis
that killed the actors John Mccullough
and BARLEY Campbell Women seldom
have it. The proportion is one woman
to eight men.
In its manifestations it finally becomes
one Of the most offensive and terrible
Affections that can overtahe mortal
1t is general paralys of the whole body,
but its approach is 50 gradual and insid-
ious that none suspects its presence. The
brain is attacked first. The patient be-
gins to have the haliucination that he is
enormously wea3thy. This is a pecu.
liarity Of the aiiment The man has
gigantic schemes for the attainment of
sudden wealth, which are not at first
seen to be Illusions.
Then comes uncertainty in articula
ton, and the patients mind is seen to be
affected. His legs tremble, and his
hands are unsteady. Next he takes to
his bed, and never leaves it. But he may
lie here for year or two, an utter idiot,
to be waited on and fed like child. He
has only his appetite for food left, and
he is greedy as an animal. Last Of all
the appetite for food leaves him, and the
life fickers out of the miserable wreck.
Such is the disease of general paraly-
sis, commonly called paresis. Live tenn
perately, keep your head level in both
the good times and bad times Of life, and
!. ycr will not have it
