DISEASE AND PAIN.
The Theory That Suffering Is Mental

A great deal Of alleged physical suf-

Much often than we realize these can
be transplanted without surgery or
medication. l do not mean that they
are not real sufferings. They are as
real as the grave, but they are not
grounded in physical infrmity, and
they are not to be cured with physics.
The mind becomes possessed of Il con-
victiOn that Il certain part of the body
is infirm and inputes pain to that part
in spite of all the medicine in the world.
Hundreds of people refuse to get we'll
after the physician has cured them. 1t
is not his fault and it is not their
fault. But they have simply had dis
ease suggested to them until they can
not think ut all except upon that as
sumption. 1t is an auto suggestion" e"
or it is family suggestion, and the
only way to remove it is by the vigOr-
GUS counter suggestion of another per
son. The value of fixed idea" OF
health, as being only the removal of a
fixed idea of disease where there was
no organic reason for it. will hardly
be disputed. Yet one cannot Overem-
phasize the multitudes that there are
of these invalids sitting in padded chairs
and making ready for the hearse whose
trouble is primarily mental. and how
many there are. again. who have a
slight organic infrmity and have in
creased its effects a thousandfold by
what we may call household sugges-
tion." - Max Eastman in Atlantic

tely it is time that by the force of
wind and tide it has apparently been
detached from the ajacent country
round, by destroying the road that
connected it with the farming
country, but such a detriment might
and should be overcome by the
cooperation of the county authorities
with the owners, which every good
citizen ought to back up to the
extent of spanning the chasm with a
road if needs be, with a tressel
bridge two mile long. Now l insist
that the community is sleeping in
this particular and let them wake
