Negroes and Insanity.

The Clarion-Ledger, says, the
~Vicksburg American, accounts for
the great and constantly increasing
number of insane negroes in the
state asylum and county jails by
the theory that the negro, being
thrown on his own resources since
the proclamation that set him free,
has gone crazy trying to think
how to make living. With due
respect we dissent. 1t is perfectly
easy for negro to make living if
he will work for it. There is
hardly planter or eotton or
sugar farmer in the south that
wouldn't rather hire negro to
work for him than white man,
and in no part of the earth is the
farm laborer so certain of abundant
food aud reasonably easy work as
on these places. There is no
month of the year in which out
door work cannot be done. The
crop preparations keeps the laborer
busy from January until May, the
cultivation from May to September,
and the return of January finds
cotton still in the fields waiting
only for the hands to pick #. The
explanation of increasing insanity
is not the problem of finding en-
ployment, but making living with
out employment, of leading a hand
to-meuth existence crowded into
the towns, where life is too often
one long orgy of drunkenness and
addiction to morphine and cocaine.
The absolute absence of moral re-
straint and indulgence in drugs is
responsible for the army of negro
maniacs and dereclicts which is
growing to be an intolerabIe bur-
den to every southern state.
There was no insanity among the.
slaves, and the reason was that
they were restrained from the
vices which they now indulge in to
an extent probably unequaled even
in the history of other savage
peoples brought into contact with
civilization. The eventual de-
struction of the race by this means.
is practically assured, but in the
meantime the problem of what to
do with the crazed, criminal and
diseased is problem which bids
fair to tax the ingenuity, patience
and resources of state governments
to the utmost.

Headache Medicines are Danger.
Gus.

1t may be said, with little fear
of contradiction from those who
know the facts, that if a cast-iron
law forbidding the use of any drug
whatever in the treatment of
headache could be enacted and en-
forced there would be much less
misery for the coming generation
than there is for this.
A sufferer from repeated head
aches who has found a means of
relief in "headache powders" or
other even less harmful drug may
dispute this assertion, but the
victims of some drug habit or the
friends of one whose heart, poison
ed by acetaniline or antipyrin, has
suddenly ceased to beat before its
time, will look at the matter from
another point of view entirely.
During the Spanish War num-
bers of would-be recruits were re-
jected because of weak heart;
and in the epidemic of pneumonia
which ravaged the country last
winter an unusual number of deaths
occurred from failure of the heart to
meet the added strain.
Although various causes have
doubtless been at ,N ERIK to to weaken
the hearts of the present genera.
ton, there can be no question that
one potent influence has been the
indiscriminate use of headache
powders.
In all cases of habitual headache
recurring periodically a physician
must of course. be consulted that
he may find the cause, eye strain.
disease in the ears, nose, stomach
or other more distinct organs,-an
remove it if possible. But the
separate attacks of headaches have
to be relieved, if very severe; and
in these cases it is better not to re.
sort to drugs, unless the drugs are
taken under the special guidance of
the physician. In the congestive
headache, marked by throbbing,
and made worse by STOPPING or
lying down, a cold towel or an ice
bag applied to the head, hot
water bag to the spine, mustard
plaster to the back of the neck or
to the inner side of the thighs, or
hot.mustard foot-bath-one or
more-will often give relief when
many drugs fail.
In the anemic form of headache,
marked by paIlor, in which the
pain is made less severe by lying
down, massage of the head or the
application of warm cloths to the
head and face will often be found
grateful. A threatened bilious
headache may sometimes be ward
ed off by dose of EPSON salts, as
many other headaches due to
"autointoxication;" and one due to
over-use of the eyes or eyestrain,
will usually, if taken at the mo-
ment of the first warning, be ar
rested or mitigated by closing the
book and going for a walk
