WORK TREATMENT IN DISEASE.
Especially Successful With the Mentally Af- fected and Sufferers From Alcoholism.

Vienna Correspondence to Pali Mall Ga

 Some interesting experiments conducted at the state Institution at Mauer Oehling have completely demonstrated the great value of work as a means of healing in Va rious forms of chronic illness. especially In mental and nervous disorders alcoholism and epilepsy.
 Under the supervision of Dr. Stearlinger. the chief of the institution. no less than 54 per cent of the patients are engaged in some kind of occupation The majority are employed in farm. dairy and garden work while others turn their attention to mechan- teal trades. including the production of a newspaper which is printed and also large ly written by the inmates.
 It has been found that the mentally af- feCted and those suffering from alcoholism make the most willing and efficient work ers Work has a quieting influence and rem ders the patients much more satisfied
 The favorable effect their physical condition is shown from the fact that the number of deaths from tuberculosis have steadily decreased since the introduction of the work treatment. although the number of patients has constantly increased.
 One other good effect of the work treat ment is that the general public are found to lose much of their dread of asylums whef they see the patients engaged in some use ful occupation.

The stream or ns .ns August meteors is much longer ana less condensed than that of the neteors of November; oit is therefore believed that the comet which formed the TOT mer stream entered our solar syste" a very long tims>ago.

If the observer viu faee the north he vii every few minutes see one of these little points of light appear. dart swiftly across the sky and disappear again, very possibly leaving . luminous tail behind 1t. The greater number of thess stars will move outward in all directions from Psrssus. at the point ., Fig. l.: they will appear to move rather swiftly and will be of . ysllowish color.
 The great number of shooting stars which dart outward from the constlla- ton Perseus are merely particles of an immense stream of meteoYic matter. which dart outward from the constellas- sun. The path of this stream Is shown at A. Fig. 5. It stretches beyond the orbit of Neptune and is % large that any particle occupies more than 100 years la passing around 1t. It crosses the esrth's orbit at B. end as the swarm 10 of immense extent whenever the earth reaches the point B. 1t col lidss with an enormous member of the particles.

 The path of the August meteors shown in Fig. 6. is exactly the same as that of the bright comet of 1882; In deed 1t is nearly certain that this comet is only the densest part of the swarm; It is known that whom . comet Is forced by the pull of one of the planets to revolve in . closed orbit around the sun, it will be gradually torn apart by so-called tidal action and spread out along its path.
