SAYS We LIVE TOO LONG.
English Physician Accounts for In
Grease In Insanity.

London. England annual re-
port OF the lunacy commissioners
shows n dixQuieting increase In the
population of Great Britain's asyiams.
Al the beginning OF this year Quo
out Of every 2Se persons In England
and Wales was reported to be insane.
Ton years ago tho rate OF Insane per.
sons was only one In 3lt. From 1863
to 1906 the population OF England and
Wales Increased 55h per cent. while
the insane Increased l33 per cent.
A significant fact brought to light
by the report In the spread Of senil.
dementia. which alone accounts for
over IS per cent OF last years fresh
iunacy cases. Discussing this phase Of
the situation one medical authority cx.
pressed the belief that We live too
long for the kind OF work most Of
us do.
THE advanced medical knowledge
Of today" said the authority. refer.
red TO. keeps n multitude OF persons
alive whose minds are practically worn
out. The present age demands more
brain work and nerve strain from
every one than were demanded only =
few years ago. There Is less and less
demand for people who can only use
their hands. The physical wear and
tear has decreased. while the brain
work and the strain on the nervous
system have increased.
THE result is that the mind dies
first and the body Is kept alive by
medical science. which thus adds to
the growing list Of senile demcntia
cases in our asylums."
