ONE LUNATIc TO EVERY 269

The number of lunatices in England
and Wales on January last showed
an Increase of 2,504 over the total
year before, according to recently Is
sued reports of the commissioners In
lunacy.
The total number of certified insane
under care on January was l3o'oo!'
The increase of 2.504 compares with
an increase of 1904 for 1910, with
l.766 for 1909 and with 2,703 for lSos'
Last January the insane were reck'
oned at one to every 269 OF the pop
ulation;. In 1902 the proportion was
one to 29S.
On the question of distribution the
report shows 46.5 per cent. OF insane
are male and 53.5 per cent females
In the population there are AZ maies
to So females in every 100 persons.
In cases of hereditary insanity the
proportion of the females Is % per
cent. which bears out a fact noted py
DIR. Mott. of the London county asy-
lums. that in the offspring OF insane
parents daughters are much more nu-
merous than sons. In cases Win
family history of alcoholism the re-
male proportion is SO. Sudden mental
stress accounts for 65 female insane
compared with 35 males; In pro-
longed stress women also preoom-
mate. but in alcoholic intemperance
the male cases are twice as numerous
as the female-68 against 30.

GOOD COUNTRY ROADS,
Narrow Tired Wagon Is Most
Destructive Agent.
Highways Also Have Been Ruined by
Wrong Method Of WorkIns--DK-
ferent System Of Supervision
10 Advocated.

Good country roads are ruined I'm
many ways, some OF which must be
laid at the doors of the officials in
charge. and some we can only hold
the farmers themselves responsible
for. Good roads are ruined by wealth
er, water and wanton neglect. Man
Is the chief destructive agent and we
must pay some attention to him and
his ways. says the Western Farmer.
Any good dirt road can be ruined In
a short time by hauling heavy loads
over 1t in narrow tired wagons. The
common one and three-fourth-inch tire
does more harm to country roads
than any other destructive agent. We
wonder why the farmers will continue
buying these wheels when a broad
tire--say four-inch-will make rather
than destroy good roads. The broad
tired wagon pulls easier and that
should be sufficient reason why the
change should be made
1t seems waste of money to make
n dirt road hard and smooth. dragged
at the proper time and all that. and
then have a lot of men haul big loads
of grain. hay, wood or what not over
It just after a rain and their narrow
tires cutting away in. or course they
all keep in the one track so each sue
ceeding tire cuts a little deeper. II
another rain comes before the ruts are
dragged full then the whole road goes
to pieces. There should be a tax or
some legal penalty against the narrow
tired wagon. We are not pleading for
low wheels. though we believe In
them. too, but we do urge every one
to buy wide tires. The old wheels
can be made over and wide tires PIT
on at a slight cost.
Roads have been ruined. by the mil,,
by the wrong method of working
The old system of working out the
road tax under a supervisor or road
boss is wrong, 1t never yet has made
a good stretch of road. 1t never will.
The practice of tearing up the road
in the fall after harv est-because
that's the only time he can get farm
ers to work-plowing the sodded sides
up and scalping the whole, conglomera-
ton of sods, stones and clods into the
middle of the road Is the worst system
that ever can be practced. The sea-
son is wrong. the system Is wrong
and the road Is bad all winter and
next spring.
Who has not seen brush piled In
soft places. gravel dumped in mud
holes, and even sand put in chuck
holes by these road bosses? It's
sure way to make bad road worse.
Who has not seen dense groves of tall
willows pile the road full of snow
which made a mud hole exist there
for weeks after the rest of the road
was dry? What is the remedy? A
different system of road supervision
Remove the office from politics, get
men who have studied or will study
road building and keep them as long
as they are efficient Pay road tax
in cash and let this skilled road boss
hire his men He should keep the
same men all the time. They become
more efficient all the time.

WELL THAT is BoTroMLEss

One of the most curious and most
interesting natural wonders to be
found in Arizona is Montezuma well.
This strange lake is located about the
center of the state In somewhat
isolated community. All about 1t are
great quantities of malapai rocks. for
this ID q most decidedly volcanic COM
munty. The well itself is some 200
yards across. and as far as 1t has ever
been possible to determine It In bot
tomless. The water In the well Is abb
solutely clear and pure. II maintains
a certain level all the time. which is
unaffected by the dryness or wetness
of the season. The walls that rise
precipitously above these clear wa
ters and reflect themselves In them
were at one time the homes of q pop
ulous copmuuity. For this is the very
center of what was once the cliff
dwellers' stronghold In Arizona.

MAN IS BORN AGAIN
Removal of Brain Tumor Leaves
Patient an Infant.
Gradually He 10 Beginning the Use OF
Hls Faculties, and tho Surgeons
Say He VIII Fully
Recover.

Denver.-Every morning number
of the leading surgeons OF Denver
gather at the county hospital to watch
the remarkable spectacle of man six
ty-three years old literally being born
into the world Each day the patient
acquires the use of one or two more
of his faculties. until he can now
move, eat, recognize persons and
speak a few words
The man is Luther Dionne, who for
five years has been practically dying
from a tumor in his brain He was
paralyzed. speechless. sightless and
outwardly dead on December 30 last
when two surgeons operated upon his
brain.
They removed a tumor larger than
a walnut from the cortex of the
brain. The tumor had destroyed all
the nerve fibers except those running
to the heart and lungs.
For two weeks after the operation
Luther Dionne lay as n dead. He was
fed through the nostrils. Then he
began to undergo a complete sec
ond birth into life. His fingers began
to move. The next day his toes moved.
On tho third day he could lift his
arm slightly. and so on. day after day.
the rejuvenation continued. At the
end Of ten days he regained his sight.
but was like a baby. and knew no one.
When two weeks had passed he spoke
a word or so. repeating after the
nurse food" or doctor or nurse.
A few days ago the aged man was
so far recovered that he could sit up
In bed feed himself distinguish one
nurse from another and speak quite
few of the simpler words that he had
heard used by the people in his ward.
One of the surgeons says that d.
onne is well on the road to complete
recovery, and that he is regaining his
normal faculties as fast as new nerve
tibers grow through his brain. Mem
ory has not yet returned. but in time
he will be able to take up his life
where II left off when he lost con-
seriousness five years ago. Other Den
yer surgeons say that the operation is
s one OF the most remarkable ever per
formed In the United States.
Little is known OF Luther Dionne ex.
cept that he was once a prosperous
real estate man. His life virtually
ended with the growth of the tumor.
