Wltliin n little more tban n week
says tlic Philtidclphiu J'rtus, two wo
men have voluntarily ended their
lives in fit of pouts. One of them,
Mrs. Mills of New York, was un
doubtedly insane and clearly not re
sponsible in her presistent refusal
of food. Miss Duell of Iowa, who
died on Sunday was apparently not
insane but only sullen. Since No
vember, 1870, she has refused to speak
to any one, using a slate and pencil
for all necessary communications with
her friends. On the :tfrd of February
she refused her food and after a con
tinuous fast of forty-seventy days
yielded up the ghost.
Firmness is clearly not always a
commendable quality. When its ob
ject is ill chosen, some corrective is
called for, as adhesion to a had pur
pose can only bemiscliievious in its re
sults. Men do not hesitate to thwart
the object of n would-be suicide who
would summarily end his troubles by
violent methods. A child who in a
lit of sulleness holds its breath till he or
she is black in the face, is spunked
into a normal state of breathing by
every sound minded parent. Tanner
in the cause of science lias demon
strated that starvation in its latter
stages is not specially painful. As fai
ns it appeal's neither of these women
when weak and faint from hick of
mirishmcnt sullered appreciably from
the pangs of hunger. Such being the
case, nature cannot be relied upon to
break their resolution by intensity of
suflering, and some cllective method
of interference witli this suicidal pur
pore must be devised.
In the case of the two ladies under
consideration, food was plaeed tempt
ingly within their reach, but they
would not touch it. Insane patients
who refuse food are sometimes per
suaded to abandon their purpose by
insinuating the idea that they cannot
have food if they believe this lliey im
mediately begin to cry for food. These
women, however, were not to be de
ceived, nor could they be forced to eat.
There was a case, however, reported a
few weeks ago from New York, where
a woman hud u temporary paralysis of
the stomach and could take no food
ut all. Neither her friends nor her-;
self were willing she should starve to
deuth, and she was bathed regularly
in milk and other liquid food until her
stomach recovered its tone. The skin
will absorb food very readily in this
way and in such quantities that these
i)at lis never failed to allay a previous
sensation of hunger.
This is a bint to those who have the
charge of obstinate woman who refuse
to cut. Rathe them in milk, nolens
Yolens,and let them close thcirmotiths
as tight as they may, only soak tbeni
long enough und they will get fat in
spite of themselves. ' Reef tea, clear
soups and probably thin gruels can be
udministciul by way of change of diet
in the same manner. As I lie ordinary
battling process would be wasteful
when liquid food is substituted for
walor.thc patient might be loosely en
cased in a rubber suit, somewhat af
ter the fashion of Captain Iioynton's,
and fed liberally at the neck, We re
gret that it did not occur to us to sug
gest this sell erne sooner, so that it
might have been satisfactorily tested
iu Misss Ducll's case. It will how
ever, hold good for the next woman
who gets "oil" her feed" and obsti
nately refuses to take her vituals iu
the ordinary Cushion.
