Suicide Statistics.

Springfield Republican.
Modern civilization is being forced
more and more deeply on the defensive
in the matter of suicide. Statistics
finding publication in England show a
great increase in the rate OF self-de-
struction in European countries dur
ing the last twenty-five years. Thus in
France the rate has increased from l57
to 224 per million of population, and
in Germany it is nearly the same. The
rate has increased during the same
time by twenty-seysn in Hungary,
eighteen in Scotland, fifteen In Eng
land and eight in Ireland. It Is not
those of mature ago alone who are .af-
flcted. During the ten years from
1887 to 1897 over 400 persons under
fifteen years OF age killed themselves.
and rs Of these were girls. Russia
alone shows no increase in the rate, and

minutes the dose was repeated. The

4 WoInan's Wealth.
Paine'SCelery
Compound
GIVES VIGOR AND
STRENGTH TO DEBILITATED AND
RUN DOWN WOMEN.

It is maintained by many distinguished
writer's that the greatness of nation depends
much upon the physical condition Of its
women. The general conditions which con-
tribute to health and long life, are those which
do not imply rapid and unequal exhaustion
of those powers by which life is maintained.
While we assert that the women of our land
stand peerless for beauty and the virtues that
make them lovable, we cannot hide the TACT
that there are thousands in our midst who,
owing to overwork, wony, household cares,
and an unequal exhaustion Of life power, have
become weak, nervous, sleepless, and debif-
tated.
We bring to the attention of III weary,
respondent, hopeless, and sick!y women

Paine's Celery Compound. Thousands OF
healthy women around Us owe their present

Selected.
Now that the hot months are ap-
preaching it is we'll to plan for little
convenient outings, to be taken when
ever ltime and business will permit.
Tho resting spoil may be but a few
hours In length, and the journey but a
short distance from ones own door
yard, but let US get out whenever We
can, into tho blessed sunshine and fell
lowship with Nature. In this ago OF
artificial life and pursuit, there is 30
much that is exhausting to both mind
and body, that our mental, as we'll a.
physical, health demands q cer-
tain amount of relaxation to be
gotten in no other way:than by wander
ing in green fields and drinking in the
sweetened airs of the outer world.
Many tired and depressed men and wo-
men would be lifted out OF the slough
of their despond If they would live
moro out of doors. Women, especial
", need this relief. It il not needed
that We become Thoreau and live in
hut in the woods in order that we
may commune with Nature, though II
one might leave the city behind and
seek the solitude of woods and fields,
"the world forgetting, by the world
forgot" the cure would be more COM
plete, and the benefit much greater.
But anything that takes one out into
the open air, if but for an hour or two,
and creates an interest in the green
things of the natural world, If 1t be on
" tho care of little patch of flower
garden In city backyard, is helpful,
and no woman over learned to love and
care for q plant or flower without be-
coming, to that extent, a better and
happier woman. Even q small bed
sown to mixed package of flower
seeds will be q source OF perpetual de-
light to the one who is interested in
watching the continual surprises that
are stored up in the expectancy of the
ever-varying blooming time. Lot ua
resolve to get as many outings as we
possibly can, and let us take every one

insanity Among Negroes.

Atlantis Jouraal.
Mr.. Sam Small's imprisoned address
before the charities convention must
have been as interesting to northern
and western delegates as to those living
in the same section with himself, con-
corning insane negroes.
DR.. Searcyis statement, in which he
said there were now thirteen insane ne
grces to one during slavery times, has
also painful interest, to those. especial
~ who are exposed to the yio-
lence Of negroes who pay be possibly
insane when they seem abnormally
vicious and degenerate.
This condition of affairs demands Inn
mediate attention, because the necessi.
ty Of the situation IL before US In ali
its horror and danger. The use OF
dope drugs is known to be extensive
among negroes. A year or two ago
the city of Auugsta ielt obliged to pass
regulations forbidding the indiscrimi-
nate sale of such dope drugs because
tho effect on negroes had become palm
fully apparent. In one editorial on
the subject the Augusta Chronicle de-
clared the eyes and skin of such dope
6onds betrayed the excessive use Of
dope drugs, and that ten cents would
buy sufficient dope stun to produce an
effect that twenty-five cents worth Of
mean whiskey would hardly accom-
plish. The cheapness Of the drug as
compared with the whiskey expense,
was inducing great numbers to indulge
in the former. And like the opium
habit, whom once fastened upon the
user it Is hardly ever eradicated. Per-
haps it is an opium habit, or its equiv
alent, that is understood by dope inc
briefly.
It is also said that popular brands Of
snuff among negroes have moro or less
of narcotic effects. Whether this 10 true
or otherwise, the high rate of insanity
among negroes is attributable to some
cause, which should be promptly In
vestigated and understood fully.
There Is too much at stake to allow
apathetlc disregard of such conditions.
The fact that evsry. home in the land
ls menaced by violence, by incendiar-
ism, burglary, arson and murder,
should be sufficient to call Tor prompt
and rigid Investigation of the causes
for insanity as here explained.
