The Epldemioc of Urime,
Whence comes this epidemio of sul-
sides and murders? HKecent discussions
have named several causes, Hon, 0.
H. Reeve, of Indiana, charges it to infl-
del teachings—holding that hopeless:
ness of a future state oripples fortitude
lor bearing life's ills, Another declares
suffering from the universal business
depression the cause, A third writer
attributes it to increasing insanity, a
hystcian thinks much of the tendency
s inherited, while temperance advocates
lay the responsibility upon strong
drink.
Free-thinkers have committed suicide,
but so have orthodox churchmen, Fi-
nancial straits have beset many, but the
wealthy have also taken their life.
Insanity and dissipation have pre-
seded suicides and family murders,
One feature common to almost every
such crime challenges attention, Well
nigh every report of suicide and family
murder mentions the perpetrator as
having * for some time been subject to
melancholy.” Whence comes this ? All
recognized medical authorities tell us
that the fire which consumes the brain
is always kindled by derangements of
digestion ; that digestion is impos-
sible withont pure blood, and pure
blood is never known when the liver and
kidneys are out of order, Under such
streumstances, a preventive should be
sought, and for this Warner's safe oure
ls soversign—a fact conceded by the
sspecially commended by the celebrated
Dr. Dio Lewis.—Rochester Democrat.

In a paper read before the Academy
of Medicine, Panis, M. Lays states that
the brain is subject to certain changes
in position, dependent upon the attitude
of the body. Thus, if a man is mn the
dorsal decubitus, or lies upon his side
or stands upon his bead, the brain un-
gravity ; the movements take
utes in returning to its first position.
From these anatomical data, M. Luys
deduces some interesting and practical
conclusions, and explains by them the
example, which feeble persons experi

horizontal position at night,

A steel tempering process practiced
by M, P. Gabriel is said to sive very
desirable and satisfactory results, Cy-
anide of potassium is dissolved and red
heated in a metallic or earthern cruci-
ble, and the pieces of steel are then
immersed in the liquid until they are
red and afterwards plunged into cold
walter.
Dr. Hamberg, » Swedish chemist,
agrees with Dr. Schloesing that marine
water contains neutral carbonates, bi-
carbonates and slight traces of free car-
bonie acid, and that temperature and
atmospheric pressure have a complex
influence on both the uncombined gas
and that which is united to bases,
