Referring to tho murderous tendency of tho times, wo asked that eminent man if tho out look was not discouraging f "It ISoka so,'' ho said, "but I fancy wo li.ivo a causo and tho remedy for Mich cvitt. In my professional career I have found by hard study that wo havo emerged from savagery by de velopment of tho neivou system and tho intellectual life, and wo return to savagery as wo iguoro tho fact that without tho solid, trustworthy nervous system, wo cannot hope to savo tho taeo. llojs stuff dime novels, and tho pistol U to them the only respect ably glorious inurnment to securo fame.

"Do you regard it as a disease t" "More especially as tho lesult of diseaso which, uovGver,inay bo pre vented." "Please deGno how."' "I cannot now enter into details. Our people can sco their bodies, their blood, their bones. They never see nerves and consequently many do not sicpjwse they have any. Tho fanner's wife rejoices in a big, physi cal frame, and yet she dies premature ly. The nerve cannot stand tho strain of continual woik. Tho minister falls dead in his pulpit, but ho never did a day's physical work in his life. Tho lawyer faints m tho presence of the court and is soon a wreck or a corpse, and yet tho work is nervo work. Tho man of affairs is ovucomo with apo- Iczy ; tho political! and publicist, willi irichl's disease. The mind of tho un tutored man is fired by the exploits of crime ami lio longs for such tamo. These persons overwork or over excite tho nervous system and this fact kills or demoralizes them. "If all this be so how would you rectify it then ?" lit t mo tell you. A few yiars ago I had a lady patient who was an utlei wreck. Sho was tho mother of sever al children. Sho lost her mind and imagined sho was cm fed of God. Sho wbh a farmer's wife, and worked eaily and late. I never saw a fiuer speci men of physical manhood than bIic, but she was a nervous wreck I Sho became, bloodlcts, had tho very worst of female disorders and was in tho last 6tages of albuminuria or Bripht's di rcase. This latter diseaso works par ticular havco with tho nervous system and produces insanity and despair. Sho was insane and desperate and 1 fear tainted the Hood of her off spring with these teirible tendencies. 1 treated her for severel years. Ono by ono tho standard remedies of the schools failed, but I finally cured her with Warner's safe cure, and the is tc day strong and well. Ytt thousands of wc men liko her, eviry year brine ill formed and criminally-inclined child ren into tho woi Id. Is it nny wonder that neivous diseases prevail and that tlio whole moral senso is demoralized T If that remedy wero cenerallv used, we would have stronger mothers, stronger chiidien, stronger men and women, and with perfect physical and mental li en 1 1 ri , ci imo would decrease and so ciety ho moro secure." Such candid opinions are surely woith coDSidciing. The Sensatioa of Being Hangel. A MEMIIF.Il OF A LONDON CI.UII EX1 MKNTS FOIl 111MSEI.1-'. JVom Max 0' lleWs London Letter. A ciuzy Briton belonging to tho "Suicidj Club," hits published an ac count of the sensations of hanging. Ho lias actually tried it before the members of tho club. It will bo pity if his narrative has the effect of diminishing tho wholesome terror which tho ropo has hithetto inspired, and 1 tear it mav induce some silly people to try hanging as a substitute lor opium. At hrst there was a great jerk and ho felt a violent pain in his neck ; but after ho lost consciousness tho proceedings became- quito pleasant.

Their great hobby is to thrust tho stick under ono arm, with the longest portion protrud ing from the rear.
