PSYCHASTHENIA.
A Physician Says This Is One Of the
Causes of Panics-

Causes of Pauice-
The panics that start IN Wall street
often begin In the morbid financial
fears of overstrained brains-psychas-
thenia. Psychasthenla makes panics.
writes De. Clarence Hughes in the
Alienist and Neurologist.
we once knew a mind oyerburden-
ed, brain overstrained man suddenly
conclude he was coming to want and
would not be able to pay his taxes
when his income was $4,000 annual
ly. He MIXED his own cow, he har-
messed his own horse and cared for 1t
(sold the others), dismissed all his
servants and his wife's and had In
somnia, but finally recovered complete
ly. Others with less income or more
fall through brain overtax into the
same morbid way of feeling and think
ing.
who under mental stress OF any kind
acts as though he were insane, but has
not the disease of real insanity to ex-
cuse his factions.
Tie movers on the verge, out docs
not pass ove into real mental aberra-
ton as he appears to be going. He
does and says such odd, unreasonable
and annoying things that his friends
often wish he would pass into genuine
insanity, so hat he might be properly
and lawfully restrained or that he
might happily extinguish himself by
suicide. Sometimes he does commit
suicide or become really insane, and
we then know where to place him."

THR pure food law OF this State, ap-
proved June /, 1897. is found to have
serious defect, according to the view
taken by Judge Bell, OF the Blair county
court. The constitution CART III, sec ~,
provides that NO law shall be revived,
amended, or the provisions thereof ex.
tended or conferred by reference to lite
title only, but so much thereof as is re-
yived, amended, extended or conferred
length" The act in question, known as
the 'Tustin Act, appears to violate this
provision. With intent to establish cou.
formity, at certain points, with the Fed
eral Food and Drugs Act OF June 80,
1906, 1t refers to the latter, instead OF di-
rectly enacting it's provisions on these
points. This, Judge Bell holds, makes
the State law Unconstitutional. The
Dairy and Food Commissioner may carry
the case to the appellate court, but at all
events an effort will be made, during the
legislative session Of next winter, to
enact a statute free from the defects Of
that enacted last year. The act now
unueT OOutlueThtlOu Telhtee only 10 bli
articles used for food, confectionery or
oondiment by man, whether simple, mix
ed or compound" 1t also expressly ex-
oepts from it's effect any act heretofore
passed Regulating the manufacture, sale
and iealiDg In milk, cream, butter, oleo-
mar garine, butterine, aud all other sub.
stitutes for butter, oleaRinous or dairy
products, aud to fresh meats, poultry,
game, fish, cider, vinegar and fruit syr'
ups, all OF which acts shall remain in full
| force" Nothing within the scope oI
these acts, therefore, will be affected by
the unoonstitutionslity Of the Tustin act
Judge Bell's decision, In the case before
him, was not that pure food law is un
constitutional, but that the State can
not annex federal rules and regulation
to 1t without expressly enacting them
The same question is pending befor'
