What Is Fatigue?

Fatigue is the natural result Of labor
andas such is a periodic symptom with
which every healthy person is familiar.
1t is one of the laws Of organic life
that periods Of relaxation shall succeed
periods of activity. The heart itself is
normally in repose for about one-third
of the time consumed by each beat-a
fact in which there is something par
ticularly suggestive and interesting,
since psychologists agree that about one
third Of the "a hours should be devoted
to sleep
Life is made up # series of vibra-
tons i'll which tension and rest succeed
each other. The heart vibrates about 20
times minute; the vibrations of the
respiratory organs occur about Ii times
in the same period, while the vibrations
of the whole organism may be said to
complete their cycle once in "a hours
Abnormal fatigue, Il state approaching
exhaustion, occurs when one attempts to
alter natures rhythm, when the hours
of tension are made to encroach upon
those which should be devoted to rest,
when muscle and nerve already fatiRned
are driven 10 further exertion. Fatigue
of a kind known as entertaining re-
suits, in the ease of the athlete, in heart
weakness and shortness of breath loss
of wind, as it is caled-w lille the long
continued fatigue occasionod by excess
i've application to professional or bust
ness pursuits results in nervous prostra-
ton or even III paralysis.
While excessive fatigue is in itself un-
wise, one Of the chief dangers which re.
suits from 1t is that commonly indicated
by the term catching cold" Thus the
danger Of sitting III draft or ON the
damp ground is many times doubled
after great exertion. The application Of
heat to the surface is a more logical pro-
cedure utter extreme fatigue.
Loss of sleep is one Of the first sypm.
toms of abnormal fatigue. Habitual in
somnia from this cause is TO be treated
