| We sometimes see in the papers 4
thrilling account OF where a perfectly
sane person has been confined i'm an
asylum. Think OF il, reader, How
long would you retain your senses If
you were confined with a number of
lunatics, night and day, aud vet think
or the physicians IN charge of these
patients who are compelled day by day
and year by year, 10 live among them.
What wonderful opportunities they
have for studying characteristics and
vagaries, what a wonderful chance for
learning the miseries Of life and how
best TO overcome theml
We were brought TO these reflections
by a conversation lately had with DIR. i.
9. Spray. OF 1873 State Street. Chicago.
For nearly ten years Doctor Spray was
in charge of the Jefferson, now Dun
ming Institute, at Dunning, Ill. This
tremendous institution contained about
twelve hundred patients in the Insane
Department, and fifteen hundred in
the Infirmary. Among this large num-
Der of persons there Were vast number
OF physical ailments. Dr. Spray, speak
ing about 1t, said:
Il traced the great cause for most of
the mental and, indeed, physical dis
orders very carefully, and while some
authorities make an estimate that
seventy-five per cent Of the people in
the United States are afflicted with some
form of kidney disease, do not think
that the rate is SO high, taking all ages
into consideration. Before middle lie
it Is less than seventy-tve per cent, but
after middle life IL is I shonId think
fully that percentage"
This is something terrible, Doctor.
Few people can certainly be aware that
so large a percentage exists"
The Doctor thought moment and
then said: ut is fact not generally
recognized that where a person has
diseased kidneys and the organs fail to
perform their functions of removing the |
waste and tn e impurities from the system.

noticed that large portion of all |
paresis cases had kidney difficulties"
"What have you found, Doctor. TO be

In such cases?"
DIR. Spray spoke with great conf
tence. He said: Having so many
cases to treat, tried various remedies.
