SLEEP THE BEST PHYsIc.
Most Victims Of Nervous Breakdown
Need Only Rest.


One OF the features OF modern
times is the prevalence of what We
term neurasthenia. or nervous break
down. These names apply To con
dition Of physical and mental Ill
health which Is tho direct result OF
the age In which We live and the
pace at which We are living. Mas
sage and electricity and novel treat
mcnts" and cures" are called upon
20 repair what we have brought upon
ourselves by our up-to-date ways OF
life. by worry and excitement.
There are hundreds OF women OF
the upper and middle classes just
now bewailing their nerves" and cry
Ing out that headaches and insomnia
and depression are spelling their
lives. This Is a neurotic age, and
half the world of men and women not
only burn the candle at both ends,
but In the middle as well. The siren
uous life is almost q necessity to
the man or woman who Is ambitious
socially, politically or commercially.
We are so anxious to get on" we at
tempt to do far more than we are
constitutionally fit for. and nervous
breakdown Is the inevitable result.
Lack OF repose Is a prime factor
in the causation OF nerves" the con-
slant rush in the social and business
world, the frantic pursuit of pleasure
and amusements are frequent pre-
cursors of nervous ill-health. We
recklessly expend our energy on
trifies; We are constantly up and do
ing; We have no time to rest and
nobody listens to the advocates and
disciples of the simpler life.
Home life, quiet domesticity are
becoming rarer every year. Simple
pleasures" "homely joys" and the
family circle" are ridiculously old
fashioned terms. Is it any wonder
that nervous breakdown and prema-
ture decay are on the increase?
The remedy lies mainly with US
women-our influence can do great
deal. oar example more, to counterfeit
the restlessness and excitement char.
'acteristic OF this age.
we must preach the gOSpel or rest.
Hard work nowadays means severe
nervous strain, ard the constant ap-
plication to business and professional
affairs demands regular periods Of
quiet and complete rest, if the work
ers are to retain their health. 1t is
the more important that the home
atmosphere be such as will restore
the balance and lessen the tension of
the inevitable nerve strain outside
UnQuietness in the home, the
tyranny of social engagements and
worldly duties" following upon a
strenuous working day, gives no op-
portunity for rcpose. The power to
be quiet, the virtue of repose, is
worth cultivating in this age of neu-
rotic women; the woman who is con-
Stantly on the move, striving after
something just out of her reach, diff
fuses; an atmosphere of disquiet and
vulgar unrest around her To be
busy does not necessarily mean to
achieve; bustling activity is too Of
ten barren of real progress.-London
