Amnesia Is n disease not unknown TO medical

which the patiept Is unable to recall WORD

spoken" An Interesting example of this men
tai disorder was lately observed in the case OF
an cmploye of the Agricultural Department In
Washington. Although of considerable scien-
tlfc attalnments he had grown so erratlc ana
uncertain in temper that 1t had become impos-
sIble to deal with him and hint came from
Headquarters suggesting his voluntary retire

resignation was asked for. He ignored the de-
mand He was then removed ana INFORMED
that after certain date his desk would be

Finally, unable to get rid Of him in any other
way his superiors had him arrested as being
Of unsound mind. But as except on this one
subject he appeared perfectly sane and reason
able he could not be held under restraint very

him back at his former occupation, oblivious or

word resignation" was simply wanting in MS
vocabulary Anything connected with the IDEA
had no meaning for him, and whole series OF

Perhaps the unfortunate cmploye OF the agrl-

proper. but from aphasia. which Is milder
form Of amnesla and Is described as The SUD
