TANGO DUE TO NEuRASTHENIA
Explanation Of the Apparent "craze"
Thus Made by Writer In
Medical Journal.

The dancing epidemic which the
country is witnessing recalls in some
respects the dancing mania of the
middle ages. which has been frequent
ly discussed in the literature of neu-
Biological medicine, remarks a writer
In Medical Times. The ragtime and
turkey trot manias appear to be con-
tagious in much the same way that
the medieval manias were. They are
also alike in respect to widespread
prevalence. the populations Of whole
continents being affected, These neu-
rotic phenomena have been ascribed
to widespread neurasthenia, due to
unrest and other pathological social
conditions.
These and the naive determination
to be amused" that characterized the
masses. together with the peculiar in
fluence Of a type of Emusic" which
seems to set up characteristic motor
reactions, account for the specially
sensitized class which may be OBJ
served In action day and night almost
anywhere In the country. This class
illustrates well the principles laid
down by NJ. lie Bon, that authority on
the psychology of the crowd. Then II
has been pointed out that many rag
time tunes are versions OF negro re-
viyal hymns, which perhaps intro
duces an element Of quasi-religious
emotionalism and also recalls the in
teresting fact that dancing has always
been connected with religion. espe-
cially pagan religion. The instinct TO
dance is very primitive one. and
through the dance certain emotions
find outlet and expression. There Is
normal and an abnormal phase TO the
subject, however. and we are inclined
TO think that II is the latter that finds
exemplification in ragtime and trot
ting.

P. O. TO USE COTTON CORD.
Jute Twine Superseded for Tying
Letters-Contract Let.

Cotton cord is to supplant jute twine
in the postal service.
The contract for the entire annual sup
ply of wrapping twine for the Post
Office Department. amounting to be-
tween 100000 and 100000 pounds,
has been awarded to the Beaumont
Manufacturing Company of Spartanburg,
S. c., by Postmaster General BurleSon.
The accepted twine is high grade cot
ton cord which promises to meet every
need of the postal service.
Thus cotton cord is substituted for
jute twine. which heretofore has been
almost solely used in tying packa ges
of letters in post offices and in the rail-
way mail service. Not only is an addi
tional market granted for cotton. hut it
is claimed, Il saving to the Post Office
Department of $4,000 is brought about
