HEREDITY AND INSANITY
W. "W. Golding, M. D . , superintendent
of the government hospital, read the
following address to teachers before the
National Educational association at a
recent session: i
Gentlemen: You take the j mind
young auil fresh in life's morning and
send it, aspiring to become godlike, on
its upward flight; I receive it torn and
bleeding as it comes fluttering down; is
there anything in common betweenour
studies that I should ask you to pause for
fifteen minutes in the important labors
of your session to listen to me? I doubt
it, unless you consider it in the light of
a fifteen-minutes reces3. How shall I
teach the teachers? The germ
of insanity lies back of the
I education, and I question if the inexor
able law in nature which we know as
tbat of "the survival of the fittest" will
not, in spite of any or all education,
send a considerable per cent, of weak
brains to moulder and become moss
grown! within asylum walls. This
seems but a reasonable deduction from
the facts within my own observation;
bur then I reflect that the sources of
life and reason are not in our" hands; I"
know how a little more or a little less of
that subtle something we call common
sense makes the difference between the
wise man and the fool; remembering,
too, how a sage physician, by a sudden
flash of sunlight thrown from a mirror
upon an idiot boy in a darkened room,
awakened a gleam of intelligence, dis
oloBinga mind wLere it had hitherto
been supposed to have no existence, I
realize what teaching in the hands of a
master may accomplish, then, standing
among the melancholy ruins where my
arudies bring me, I think that perhaps a
different education would have spared a
father's anguish for his only son, could
have saved this demented girl
To have been some man's delight,
might have still kept eloquent that
drivelling tongue; and sol am here.
From my standpoint the first mistake
that we make in the edacation of the
young is that we do not pay sufficient
attention to the temperament of the
child; we are not all cast in the same
mould, even if we do bear the same im
a.?e. This lethargic youth, whose men
tal integuments are like the wrappings
of a rhinoceros, needs all our goading
a brain fever is hardly possible to
such an organization; bat this girl, with
clear skin, spare neck, intellectual fore
head, and speaking eyes, whose lessons
are always perfect, whose answer antici
pates almost your very thought, whose
nervous susceptibility quivers through
every fibre if she fancies your reproof of
the above mentioned blockhead is meant
for her it is not study out of
school that she requires, but the gym
nasium, the rest of long vacations in the
summer fields, with nights of repose un
broken by any dreams of school prizes.
I know ofttimes your brighs scholar is
sueh an oasis in a desert of abounding
dullness that there is ahtroDC temntatinn
to the teacher to give him free rein;
hence it often occurs that your valedic
torian is never heard of afterwards. Is
is staying power that you want more
than brilliancy of mind.
Are we not asking too much of our
children? Lay the foundations broad
the I broader the better in physical
health, and let the mental growth be
natural without foroing. I like the open
atr summer schools; even in our climate
we should be gainers with more of the
out door life of the old Greeks,' I wish
we had again the forum and the grove of
Aoademia; in such sohools our children
would gain in vigor to more than
counterbalance their loss in the exact
methods of book teaching. Yes; the ad-
wn their name is legion. A treatise on
the neurotic disorders now makes one of
the largest works in a physician's li
brary. It is an age spendthrift alike in
brain and material. Of the heat and
ower that have been slowly accumn
ated in the coal measures through the
eons of geologic time, which would last
with careful consumption for myriad
generations, we take 2 per cent, for our
purpose, sending the remaining 98 per
cent, to be dissipated in warming inter
stellar space. To the charge of wasteful
expenditnre,modern science answers that
future generations can make available
the energy of the tides and keep warm
by electricity stored up in reservoirs
whose feasibility is even now being de
monstrated. They will need it, for the
ruthless destruction of the forests will
not even leave them the luxury of
wood tire. Yes, power is convertible
into everything short of mmd. bnfc tha
I doubt. The "Promethean heat" Once

we are pleased to call the spirit of the

duty of the teacher, instead of drifting
with the tide and accepting the tenden
cies of the age as something inevitable
and not to be overcome, to stand up in
the dignity of his great ofBce, and of his
mannood, and call a halt to this on
rushing madness, and to so instruct the

lhis brings me to what I have to say
on heredity, a subject which concerns
you as educators in the broadest sense
t K ; l .1 . i , i . '
tuiiurou aioue Dni oi communi
ties, ti use now, for the curnoses nf
certain trial, the newspapers, those blind
Samsons in the cause of popular educa
tion, nave given out that there is no such
miug as nereaitary disease, that the
most emiaent experts have so stated.
Well, what my brethren who stand away
up at the head of the class did say, try
ing to be very exact in the use of lan
guage, feeling that they were under
oath, was, that the tendency to insanity
was hereditary, not the disease itself.
j.ue rose by any other name" but in
common parlance we say, and properly
say, hereditary disease; and where a
great truth is involved we cannot afford
to be misled by any subtleties of exact
definition. And here I take occasion to
say, in answer to this newspaper dictum,
that the hereditary charaoter of insanity
is a perfectly well established fact in
medical soience, and is recognized as
such by the profession, and that,
acting as the remote cause, hered
itary predisposition has prob-
aoiy more . to do with the
developement of insanity to day than all
the assigned immediate causes put to
gether. "Visiting the iniauitiea of the
fathers upon the children unto the third
and fourth generation" is not a mere
metapnor of oriental language, it is a
fact; it was true three thousand years
au, it. ia irue now. we say this child
does not learn because he has no head
dui tne real trouble is the father was
acepnaious before him? what a thousand
pities such a father ever had a son; the
1001-mner was an important agent in the
twilight dawn of civilization which wa
miss at its noonday. From Lycurgus to
pect to recover Love from his blindness.
but all the more I reoognize how far ud
in "the glorious procession of saints and
martyrs" some souls will hereafter stand
whose lives, like their devotions, have
been single, whose silent purpose has
been that the inherited taint of their
blood should die out from the world
with them. And we have seen iu them
only single men and women, who being
bo uiuuu ciuuupieu. in aomg good had
jound no time "to marry or be enven in
marriage," and so left no children to in
herit their many virtues. But perhaps
me vxreai xeacner saw tnose lives other
wise.and had such in mind when He said
for our instruction the words that we
are inolined to hurry over as we
read, "And some have made them
selves euuuohs for the kingdom ot
heaven's sake." Too much already the
race is poisoned with hereditary taint;
yes, as we use language, there is such a
thing as inherited disease; it is a sin to
conceal it; to deny it is a crime.
The fifteen minutes, for which I thank
you, are over. This is, indeed, a weird
paper for teachers, as much out of place
with its detention as that of the Ancient
Mariner to the wedding, guest; but if
you censure it from the educational
standpoint, my apology must be that I
have erred with the old Athenian teacher
who exhibited a drunken man to his ohil
dreh as a temperance lecture.
j FARM ASD HOUSE NOTES.
Stubble On land rich in vegetable
matter the stubble bad better be burned.
Drouth As a protection against
droutn, the constant stirring of the soil
by the small plow or cultivator can be
surely relied on.
Sulphur Remember to sprinkle the
eggs of a Betting hen with sulphur.
Every louse will be killed by the time
she leaves ner nest.
Useful Young chickens can be made
useful in a garden at insect catching is
long as they do not scratch the newlj
planted ground.
Hay Grasses intended for hay should
be cut when they are in bloom. Cut
earlier there is too much shrinkage.
Cut la'er the hay is less digestible.
Melons Potash, whether in the shape
of ashes from burned wood, or in the
form of sulphate or muriate, is an ex
cellent dressing for melons of every
kind.
Orchards A successful orohardist
says that if he were to live over again he
would trim his trees higher and pasture
his orchards with sheep in place of plow
ing or mulching.
Paris Green A member of the West
ern New York Farmers' Club sprayed
his orchard with a solution of Paris
green to exterminate the canker worm,
and reports that the apple aphis, which
formerly infested his tiees. had entirely
disappeared.
Potatoes. An Ohio farmer says that
repeated experiment and long observa
tion have satisfied him that flat culture
of potatoes not only requires less labor
than hilling, but produces heavier crops

Rice Waffles. One quart of flour, half
a teaspoonful of salt, one teaspoonfnl of
sugar, two teaspoon fuls of baking pow
der, one large teaspoonful of butter, two
eggs, one and a half pints of milk, one
cupful of hot boiled rice. Sift the flour,

called an "appliance;" in the days of the

Value of the Stjntloweb. Agricul
turists claim it to be the best egg-producing
food known for poultry, keeping

increasing the production of eggs.
Every poultry raiser who tries it will
find that the seed is the best food known
for glossing the plumage of fowls, and is
almost indispensable to those who want
to fit their birds for exhibition to the
best advantage. The Russian sunflower
is easuy raised, requires very little care,
can be grown in fence corners or other
places difficult to cultivate. Its produc
tion of seed is immense, yielding often
at the rate of 100 bushels to the acre. It
should be planted in hills four feet apart
any time from the 10th of May to the 1st
of July. Three quarts of seed will plant
an acre.

have moved forward the limit of the in

I know ' not how much longer, the
Psalmist's three score years and ten have
been the inexorable horizon of earthly
existence; we cannot change this, but we
do practically extend it by enlarging its
vista; our life keeps quick step to the
wonderful march of science; we ride with
the storm, we write with the lightning,
we paint with the sunbeam; everything
is by the instantaneous process. As Poe
said of the singer Malibran, "She
crowded ages into hours; she left the
world at twenty -nine, having existed her
thousands of years." I grant you, if
this were the final ago, nothing could be
