EFORE the year 1925 has dawned it is probable that nearly every hospital for insane in America will work for cures from an athletic angle. Physicians who have had the = care of mentally incompetent . per\““f‘ sons declare that sports are the ";’/ chief adjunct to insane treatment. GX A The patients become wonderfully ! :’\" “ interested and. enthusiastic over e wheelbarrow races, sprints, ‘three- /), 3 legged races, and the fun they de- = \ rive from this sort of exercise is det& clared far greater than that which (D falls to the share of the sane athlete or the athletic fan who participates in championship games on the field, diamond, track, gridiron and gymnasium floor. A great alienist once sdid that where physical well-being is to be found there is usually a competent mind also. Athletics naturally promote bodily improvement, and with it comes the elimination of the diseased portions of the brain. Thus medical men hope to eradicate insanity among the patients at the hospitals. ; The heat of the athletic struggle takes the mind of the patient from his woes, if that' be the form of mania, and one crazed woman is declared to have. been cured within two months after having participated continually in athletics at a hospital for insane in the east. : ; There is no athlete who gets as much apparent enjoyment out of his successes as the one who is insane. They take it as a new kind of play and take to it with all the vim that their physical attainments will permit. - Dances are also given in some asylums, to which the public is admitted by invitation. These, while they have their pathetic. side, of course, afford much Dpleasure to the inmates, especially the young€r ones. Surgeons declare that some day all varieties of insanity will yield to treatment and be curable. An operation on the brain is said by them to be the solution but as yet the man has not arisen who can perform such an operation with unfailing success. There have been isolated cases now and then that have proved successful, but the brain is one of the mysteries of the human body that has been reserved for a future generation to solve. Meanwhile, however, under the new order of things the insane are far from an unhappy lot. It is only those of sound minds who are able to realize the plight of those afflicted people; while they in their ignorance are perhaps happier than many who have

KIAMIL PASHA AND THE JEWS

People Feel They Have Friend in New Turkish Vizier. Kiamil Pasha, the leader of the Young Turks, and the present grand vizier, is by birth a Jew, but became a Mohammedan when a boy through his father’'s conversion. Although about 75 years old, he is a man with very modern ideas, having served his country as governor of Syria, as am-

the great nervous strain that Americans were under. But they were both wrong. For once figures lie. Though there were only 74,028 insane in hospitals in 1890 anc 150,151 in 1906, the actual number of in sane pro rata has de creased. i Here is the proof of

it. In 1890 there were 162 hospitalz, while in 1903 there were 328, and many of the older ones had been enlarged. In other words, the country is taking care of the insane and taking them out of their homes, and: incidentally the idea grew that because the institutions were increasing in number and size the number of cases was likewise growing abnérmally. 2 5 It is not generally supposed that there is a brighter side to insanity. The 5,000,000 people of this country who.have relatives in asylums probably do not see this bright side and few of the other millions realize it. But nevertheless it is a fact that the darkest days of the affliction are over. Nearly every patient in an institution is normal in all but one or two subjects. The dangerous insane are, of course, another matter; to them it is always night, and will be until some genius discovers a new method of treating the brain more satisfactorily than is known at the present day. -But these others are normal human beings, with normal wants and ideas on all subjects but one or two. : In the old days this normal part of their nature never had its outlet; their lives were never given the leeway necessary for even a moment’s happiness. But to-day it would not be an exaggeration to say that the insane in institutions are a reasonably happy lot. In many institutions entertainments are given regularly by the inmates. The man who has the idea that he is King Edward is allowed to sit in his royal box in all his majesty, and, as his other faculties are unimpaired, he enjoys the show to its utmost. The woman who believes she has inherited a milliion from her uncle sits in the front row, happy in the belief that in a few days she will leave the institution and buy a silk dress for every woman she leaves behind. The indulging principle in the treatment of the insane to-day is simply to humor them whenever

MEW PATIENTS WATCHING THE ATHLETIC GAMES

vizier, and 1 spent some time in his company, talking to him about the Jews and their troubles in Russia and elsewhere. He was very sympathetic. He told me thai the sultan was entirely willing to have the Jews migrate to Palestine, for they made good subjects. It was undesirable for many to come at one time, because the country was not in condition te absorb considerable numbers rapidly. He suggested ‘hat Syria and Mesopotamia, being less settled than Paleatino, and better able to absorb large

it is possible. This was very strongly brought out not long ago in an asylum near Chicago. There was a patient there whes had the idea that he was King Edward.' The king was all right in every other way, but his idea on this point was so strong within him that it gave his normal part very little room to move about. From morning until night he would talk over various matters of state with his cabinet ministers, who were anyone who happened to be near him, and in greeting the women with a graciousness that the real king would find difficult to imitate. But the king was a jolly monarch. A smile was on

his face continually and if he had ever had s chance to rule anywhere, no one would ever have accused him of cruelty. He was modeled after the lines of old King Cole. But one day a patient was admitted whose weak point happened to be the idea that King Edward had sent emissaries over to Kkill him. The doctors hesitated about putting the new man in the same room . with the king, but both were perfectly harmless, so the experiment was tried. All went well until the new patient learned that King Edward was about. Then he fled in terror and hid under a bed, and all the coaxing the nurses could do could not drag him out again. They were in a dilemma that taxed the resources of the institution. Finally, they decided to put the case before the king and depend upon his well known good nature to help them out. He was alive to the situation. His grief was touching, for a more harmless king ' certainly mever breathed. Profuse with regrets at the strange mistake, the monarch approached the man under the bed and commenced to parley with him. With all his negative graciousness the king assured the benighted one that he was deluded. Strange to say, the new man gradually began to believe it. Something in the king's face inspired confidence and at last he came out. The two soon became fast friends and the monarch raised his new found friend to the peerage. This man is now out of the asylum, cured of his delusion. But the king still rules his little kingdom as happily as the man who rules his home. According to “the best known p.lien‘istf in America, the natural condition of the insane person’s mind may be restored to normal by first giving health to the body, which ultimately, it is ®claimed, will carry itself to the brain, the blood being purified and eventually carrying away ‘the diseased portions of the brain. This, of course, *cannot be made to' apply to the cases which are violent, unless unusual conditions prevail, but at least athletics may be pronounced a great aid.

populations, might be more favorable regions for settlement. The only real objection he had to the migration of Jews or other foreigners to the Ottoman empire was their habit of retaining citizenship in the countries from which they came. Thus they did not assume any.obligations to the Ottoman empire, and might, on the other hand, involve it in dispute with other nations.—American Hebrew. United States’ Barley Production.

DIET AND HEALTH By DR. J. T. ALLEN * Food Specialist § Author of **Eating for a it ir i Etc.

WHAT SHALL WE EAT?

If it is true, as many eminent authorities say, that health, happiness, beauty and efficiency depend upon eating more than on anything else, it f{s worth while to know what to eat. Henry Ward Beecher said that a xman with a poor liver can’t be a good Christian. Certainly it is easier to exercise the Christian graces when one is free from biliousness.

When Bishop Fallows says rthat “You can make a man good or bad according to the way you feed him,” he is not denying the importance of the condition of the heart, but emphasizing the importance of the state of the stomach. Daniel prepared himself and hié companions for the wonderful ordeals through which they passed by dieting as well as by prayer, and the Master himself by fasting 40 days. : As we watch the amoeba, the typfcal unicellular organism, which closely resembles a blood .cell, under the microscope, we find it changing its form, gradually, continually. —lt is all stomach, enwrapping its food and digesting it as a single ergan; and as a single organ it adapts means to ends in securing a meal, “as perfectly,” says Cope, the eminent biologist, “as a statesman gdapts means to ends in organizing a government.” The body, therefore, is made up of a myriad of cells, each seeking its own nutrition, its primary, fuidamental function, yet possessing the power of socialistic, harmonious action, organized as lungs, liver, heart, etc., subject to the influence of the sympathetic nervous system, which binds all ‘the bodily organs together, 80 that if one suffers all must suffer in sympathy; carrying on the vital processes into which. the nutritional function is organized, unceasingly, while life lasts, yet ever amenable to suggestion through the sovereign, conscious will. , From these considerations of the constitution of the body it appears that we think in a sense with the entire body, although there is a special organ of thought, and that we digest with the entire body, although there are special organs of digestion—that, indeed, life'is, in the last analysis, a mental-physical nutritional process—at least in its manifestation on this plane of existence. -

Digestion is not a purely physical process, performed independently by a set of digestive organs. .The entire organism is engaged in the process, controlled by the sub-conscious mind, subject. to the influence of the consclous mind, the sovereign will. And, conversely, the influence of feeding is not confined to the special digestive organs, noy to certain effects which we denominate “physical.” The influence of feeding is all-pervading. It is the mainspring of the 'mental-physical life. In its essence spiritual, it manifests the life through the use of material substance, food. And upon the quallty of the food and the degree of expenditure of vitality in the process of nutrition, depends largely the quality of the life, mental, moral and physical. The question: “What Shall We Eat?’ becomes in this light doubly important. 'The essential substance of which all animal tissue is made, from the amoeba to the brain of man, is albumen. This albumen is found in the food of all animals.. The white of egg is almost pure albumen; and in milk, the food of the young of all the mammalia, albumen is a large constituent. Experiments have been made to determine what foods will alone suppnhrt life, determining that wheat gluten, which is almost pure albumen, supports life indefinitely longer than any other single element. Flesh, of which the lean is principally albumen, will support life indefinite.y, as will milk, eggs, nuts, beans, wheat, corn, oats, dates, which contain a large percentage of albumen with other food elements. Milk has been called the perfect food because it contains, in addition to albumen, all.the other elements necessary to Duild brain, muscle and bone; and the same is true of wheat and of some nuts and fruits. The milk of all the mammalia contains the same food elements, differing chiefly in the amount and kind of the -albumen. Cow’s milk is not a perfect infant’s food because it contains a larger percentage of albumen than its natural food anf of a somewhat different character. This important subject will be treated in a subsequent article. Albumen is found in large percentage in all nuts, in heans, peas and entire wheat bread. Peanuts contain about ‘3O per cent. of albumen, with 650 per cent. fat not inferior to olive oil, and four per cent. mineral. Recent experiments have shown that the percentage of albumen required for perfect' nutrition is much less than was formerly supposed. The growing child requires probably three times as much as the mature man because it must build new tissue besides repairing waste. An insufficient sup+ ply of albumen for the child, if long continued, leads to serious results. A case was recently brought to our attention in which an infant had been fed for several weeks ox\rresh cream, because it was found that the stomach retained that while the entire milk! was petsistently rejected. At first there was an apparently satisfactory gain in flesh, but this gave place to extreme weakress and wasting. The cream was mited with a part of the balance «f the milk, gradually increasing the mmount of albumen and other necessary elements of nutrition, and

here it may be remarked that excess of fatty tissue 18 an indicatior of disease, not of health. :

The necessary albumen can be obtained from flesh because it is a necessary constituent of the flesh of all animals, including fish. But flesh contains a small pergentage of waste matter of the animal’s system. It has been repeatedly shown that flesh foods may communicate disease, despite the inspectjon; and the human alimentary canal is not as well adapted to the digestion of flesh as is the organism of the carnivora, in which tke stomach and liver are relatively much larger and the intestines much shorter than in man. The well- known tests of endurance recently made at Yale university proved that non-flesh eaters had much greater sustaining power. In all the great walking contests in Germany and America the winners have been abstainers from flesh meat. The best sources of albumen, aside from meat, are nuts, beans, eggs and whole wheat or graham bread. But the character of the albumen is important. Albumen coagulates at a temperature of 160 F., and is then assimilated with difficulty. It is for this reason, partly, that the egg is found to bellyore' nutritious uncooked than cooked.” And it is for this reason,

chiefly, that such apparently wonderful results have been obtained from the use of raw cereal foods, despite the indigestibility of raw cereal starch. Understanding, then, that the essential element of food is albumen, in its natural state, the question arises: What is its best and most economical source? Considering economiec conditions, which exclude the pecan, walnut, and other expensive nuts, the answer is: The peanut, which furnishes an abundant supply of. easily assimilable albumen together with fat, which vies in nutritive value. with olive oil. - This, with a small amount of graham bread, gives the ideal proteid and fat ration. The state of Texas alone can furnish the staple food of our people. The rapidly in-

creasing consumption of the peanut with the corresponding rise in price should induce the planting of a still larger crop the coming season. The incoming crop is the largest ever produced in this country. ,

Certain minerals or earth salts are necessary to all animal life. Milk and the yolk of egg contain lime, phosphorus, sulphur, sodium, gc., and these are also found in the outer shell of wheat and other grains and in the peanut, peas, beans, nuts, potatoes, etec. The bean is especially rich in these mineral elements of food, as is the peanut, which combines in a remarkable degree the food qualities of the nut and of the legumes. The finer grades of white flour unfortunately exclude most of this important element of food, but this will be fully considered in a later article.

Not less than 80 per cent. of the solid part of our food should be that which supports combustion, maintaining heat and muscular energy. This is taken as fat or oil, starch or sugar. A certain percentage of fat is necessary for the best nutrition.. If it be true, as many careful students of diet believe, that nuts and fruits are the most natural food of man, this percentage of fat should be large. Animal fats, even milk fat when separated, are assimilated with difficulty and they, particularly lard, are open to other objections. The consumption of olive oil has increased rapidly during the past few years. It is not general ly known that peanut fat, as'in the uncooked nut or in peanut butter in which fatty acid has not been developed by excessive dry’ roasting, is equal, if not superior, in nutritive qualities to olive oil, being assimilated with wonderful facility, as the extreme degree of its solubility in water would indicate.

There are serious objections to cereal starch as the major element of food, which it now is in the dietary of the American people. The potato, especially if baked, is much to be preferred to fine white bread. Rice is far superior to the-ordinary <ereals as a source of carbon, as the example of the Japanese would indicate.:

Sugars are the most easily assimilated of foods (including honey), and fruit sugar should be substituted for a large part of our cereal food, cane sugar being inferior. And the bhest sources of fruit sugar are the ripe banana (almost unknown in this country) figs, dates and prunes. : Fruits are better eaten separately from other foods. ~ Nuts and meat digest in the stomach, chiefly, requiring about three hours there; frys digest in about oné hour, in th(& testine chiefly. There is as much jection to mixing them as there is to eating and drinking at the same moment : :

Now without here considering further the requirements of an ideal diet, does it not seem evident that we have already a knowledge of facts that would enable us to make a wonderful gain in good, feeling and efliciency by improving the nutritive supply and saving a large part of the vital energy daily wasted in digesting and eliminating impropez and unnecessary food, if not for the average person who is slow to realize the benefit to be obtained, at least for the athlete who can quickly demonstrate a gain in efficiency by right diet, for the invalid whe needs to conserve his vitality and for the aged whose stock is low (but who has, alas, lost to a great degree the power of adaptation)? Hundreds of invalids who have gradually changed their diet have found new life. Many who have had only the desire for greater efficiency and immunity from disease have made the change. A well-known merchant of Aurora, 111, for example, who has for nearly a year followed an exclusive diet of juicy fruits-in the morning, peanuts with a 'sllce ‘of Graham bread at noon and prunes only in the evening, drinking ‘only water between meals, declares that nothing could tempt him to go back to the old way. He says, and his clerks corroborate the statement, that he iseworth three times as much in his business; he can write a better advertisement, a better letter; hia mind is clear, his conception brilliant, ‘his judgment prompt, his execution ‘gharp, deeisive. He rises two hours “earlier than formerly and enjoys his ‘work as never befora. , ¢

GIRL 600 D LAWYER

PRETTY YOUNG FRENCH WOMAN WINS IMPORTANT CASE.

Miie. Mirgpolisky Is Only 21 Years Old —Believes in Marriage, But Doesn’t Want It to Interfere with Career.

Parig.—The youngest woman lawyer in the world has just been defending a woman accused of trying to kill- herself and her baby by inhaling the fumeés of a charcoal stove. Mille. Helene Miropolsky is only 21 and was sworn in as a lawyer before the court of appeals in this city last October. Her appearance as counsel for the defense in a criminal trial attracted a large number of old lawyers to -the courtroom; though the case itself was nothing out of the ordinary. .Her client had been abandoned by the father of her child; finding herself on the verge of starvation she had tried to end her miseries. The- baby had died, but she had been saved. “Portia come to life!” cried an old jurist as he watched the beautiful girl and listened to the eloquence of her goft voice pleading for mercy for the unfortunate sister on whom inexorable justice had laid her heavy hand. And so moving was her plea that the jury acquitted her client. :

Mlle. Miropolsky was born in Paris of parents who were Poles by birth. Both father and mother are doctors of medicine, so it is only fair to say that some of the young woman's talent is inherited. She has nothing about her that suggests .the “new woman.” Handsome, graceful, elegant in costume, she looks like a young woman of the fashionable world—until she dons her gown and cap; them indeed she seéems what the old lawyer called her—*“Portia come to life.” - . Before she was 17 she had ‘taken her degree of B. A., and it should be e % " ,“T‘;x_‘: - K A ' ( e || Hi" A " = - —-.'.’".":5'.i 4‘ R :\‘\-.‘»'E_;: l ‘\‘3;l. : @ '-‘\_,,’» Yy /! > 2 \ y |\ B 'o§ N\ oz + IR\ 2 w 1 3 27 A LRI\ T ] @fﬁ/ L KA *"-!:'"i,’ 27 5 U 2NV [P .2 o y “i'f § (= : QDI S (§ &) /ILLE. 11IPOPOLISKY G observed that the French requirements for a degree are anything but easy to fulfill. . Mille. Miropolsky’s portraits do not do her justice, for they cannot reproduce the air of intelligence that beams in every feature nor the changing expression, the keen sparkle of the eye, the jet black hair, the white teeth or the charm of manner which are hers.

Mlle. Miropolsky desires especially to practice in divorce cases and on behalf of children. With regard to divorce, she expresses ideas which in some countries would be considered audacious. She would like to see divorce made easier; that is, she advocates dissolving a union on the express.desire of both parties. " This reform she suggests as being really in the interests of morality. Such a condition of -affairs, she remarks, virtually exists nowadays, for if the parties

really wish to be separated they arrange a comedy in which there are, necessarily, low and vulgar incidents. In divorce cases she hopes that it may be her lot to plead nearly always for the wife, for, she says, it is the woman who suffers most frequently in - these domestic failures. .

Mlle. Miropolsky thinks that every possible career should be opened to woman, and she finds that the chief objection of men is due to fear of increased competition and not really to any of the reasons commonly and hypocritically put forward. She would like to see women enter the church as a profession, for that is a sphere in whi¢h their qualities would, she believes, be especially servicea_xble. politics, Mlle. Miropolsky. consid- } she has not yet read and. seen nough to be able to decide between the various parties in the republic. On the question of marriage she has supreme contempt for what are called marriages of reason, the ‘‘reason” generally being money. She recognizes that marriage is the true function of woman, and if she were to meet a man for whom she had real affection she would think herself happy to marry; but on no other consideration save that of love. In any case, she would hope to continue her career in the legal profession. She is an opponent of capital punishment. She regards criminals somewhat in the light of diseased persons. In any case, she says, where our own motives are often so obscure and our judgment so fallible, we have no right to take the life of a human being. Mlle. Miropolsky speaks English very well, with a precise but pleasant intonation, and she also speaks and reads German. She has traveled much in Europe and she is a skilled musi. cign. And all this at the age of 21! Strange Historical Fact. - “My boy, all women are alike. Don’t trust any one of them” “But father, things are different from when you were d boy.
