AMERICAN NERVOUSNESS.

Caused by Climatic Conditions and Bust.
ness and Social Environments.
A well known ethnologist has recently
claimed that those persons who hold that
diseases Of the nervous system have greatly
increased WITH ths development Of civiliza-
ton are in error. In reply to him DR.. A.
D. Rockwell. Of New York, records in Sci
ence his very positive conviction TO the OPP
posite effect In his experience a typical
case Of neurasthenia is difficult to find in
hospitals, in dispensaries and among the
very poor everywhere, but among the we'll
to do and the intellectual, and especially
among those In the professions and In the
higher walks Of business life who are in
deadly earnest In the race for place and
power, this peculiar Impeachment Of
nerve force that we term ''neurasthenia"
appears with alarming frequency
DR.. Rockwell says civilization itself, with
I'll that the term implies, with It's railway,
telegraph, telephone and periodical press,
exciting in ten thousand ways cerebral ac-
tlvity and worry, Is the primary cause of
this increase Of nervousness among the
higher classes in all countries. American
nervousness is becoming almost distinc-
tive phrase, and it cannot be denied that in
this country there are climatic conditions
and business and social environments to
the influence Of which the nervous system
IA peculiarly susceptible, especially if COM
dictated with evil habits, excuses, tobacco,
slcohol, worry and special excitements. In
the older countries men plod along in the
footsteps Of their fathers generation after
generation with little possibility ard
therefore little thought Of entering
higher social grade. Here, ON the contrary,
no one is content to rest with the POSSIBLE
ity ever before him of stepping higher, and
the race Of life Is all haste and unrest.
While Americans are undoubtedly par
ticularly nervous people, Dr. Rockwe con-
siders IL we'll to remember that large
number who think themselves nervously
exhausted altogether misconceive their real
Condition. There is u vanity of disease as well
p Of dress. Many would rather be thought
nc TYous than bilious or equity. Real impov-
erishment OF nerve force due to overwork
and worry is often confounded with a poi
soned condition of the system, the result of
INCIDENT habits and an excess of food, and
Instead of rest, quiet and soothing drafts
there is need Of mental and physical activ-
not more food; depletion rather
Than repletiou.

THE OUTLOOK.

Everything Indicates that the financial
and industrial depression which has
affected Washington for the past two
years has reached the lowest point. 1t is
true times have been dull all over the
country, and probably Washington has
been as fortunate in this respect as any
other state, but ming upon the heel Of
the marvellous advance OF 1888, 1889 and
1890, it has seemed worse to bear here
than in other places whers times have
been quiet all along.
Still, in spite of the general complaint
OF hard times, Improvements have gone
steadily along. Washington built more
miles of railroad in 1892 than any other
state. While the logging and lumber
business has been tagging and the foreign
and domestic demand light. the single
business has taken gigantic strides and
has brought into the state an average of
over one hundred and fifty thousand
dollars month. Washington red cedar
shingles have been largely introduced
from Dakota TO Ohio and the demand is
likely to increase rather than diminish,
as the superiority of Washington cedar
TO every other kind of wood for shingles
is made manifest.
1t is true that town lots have not found
