While insanity is much more pre valent in the east than in the west and south in proportion to1 population the federal canvass shows it is in creasing in the country at large fas ter than population. Without doubt this increase is the result in a large dcgTee of our methods of living to the overtax that is put upon the ner vous system in worldly pursuits and to vicious habits which undermine the constitution. While there has been a reaction against the "fast American pace" in some quarters, and many people are "slowing down," still it is a fact that we as a nation give too much time to the worries of making money and the diversory excesses that go with it and not enough to a consistent, nor mal enjoyment of life. If we did there would be less insanity and a tremendous decrease In the prematurely-aged population trying to re build shattered constitutions at health resorts and sanitariums. CRICKET FLAT ITEMS.
