MENTAL msnrrrrs

Because we know that the brain is the directing force of the body and have seen a new system of medicine, psychosomatic " ' e, arise under our eyes, we must not forgot that there are some oases where the body. with infected condition of one or more parts. can affect the brain and the brain in turn then may direct the body to foolish or harmful things. Some years ago I wrote about the re- sults obtained by a New Jersey State Hospital in which the Super- intendent reported the clearing up of the minds of many of his men- tal patients by having infection re- moved by dentists, nose and throat specialists and other specialists.

It is of interest to learn of the work now underway at Creedmoor State Hospital. New Jersey. to es- tablish advanccd technique to develop and intioduce biochemical diagnostic and preventive psychia- tric methods to the already estab- lished psychological procedures. Dr. Harry A. Leburt. senior direc- tor of Creedmoor. in ft. statement

from the Press Office of Creed-moor states that “the success of they Crcedmoor Institute will advance. our efforts to make state hospitals‘ centers of prevention. early diag- nosis and early treatment. Amang our objectives are those of at-T tempting to seek out persons who might develop psychosis. treat with} gland extracts, biochemical and| other measures to shorten episodes, of illness and reduce or remove the need for hospitalization.”

The thought behind the estab- lishimer.-t of this new department of Creedmoor is that the increased tempo and complexity of our bveryday life and the added .lifo span due to medical advances are

making uvcr-increasing demands upon psychiatric or mental ser- vices.

A most impsrtant factor in th- work will be an out patient service for children as well as adults who cannot afford private care and., eventually. “open wards" for ob- servation and treatmcnt.

\Vith the coming into use of shock treatment for eaily mental cases arrzl provision in state hos- pitals such as Creedmoor. preven- tion and successful treatment of mental cases has made a long step forward.

Sleep Walkers _.

BY 1'. H. MacArthur

The act of walking about while asleep is one of the most curious of all the phenomena of nervous action. The somnabulistic state is said to be an exaggeration of the state of a dream. when in this state. the intellectual faculties are said to be dormant, while certain cells of the brain appear to be more active than under normal conditions: for sleep walkers have been known to perform feats which they never could have done had they been awake.

For example, a story is told of one. Cortclli. who while asleep one night was seen in the act of translating from a dictionary. When his watchers extinguished the candle he got up from his desk and went to seek another light. When those present con- versed with Cortelli about the work he was doing. he gave ra- tional answers, but he apparently heard nothing that was said to him on other subjects. His eyes. too, were quite fixed on- the dic- tionary; so much so. that in read- ing he turncd his whole head from side to side instead of using his eyes as we do when we read.

The habit of walking while asleep is more common than is generally supposed, and quite a number of teenage children do a bit of nocturnal wandering at some time or another.

1 had a cousin. for instance, who used to get up and wander all about the house. We worried a good deal about it. but eventual- ly he outgrew the habit. One nigh‘. we discovered him in the cellar sitting on a box and calmly count- ing the jars of preserve. He was led upstairs and put to bed with- out waking.

Grandfather used to tell a strange story about one of his neighbours getting up.in the mid- dle of the night. This man, a farmer. would go to the cow stable. open the door and turn tne cattlc out. Then he would return to the house and go back to bed, wholly unconscious of what he‘d done.

A remarkable case is related by the Archbishop of Bordeaux in the "Encyclopedia Methodique". It was concerning a young priest at the Catholic seminary. who used to rise in his sleep and write sermons. Having written a few pages. he would read them aloud

This unusual test would seem to show that this writing was done. not by sight. but by an ac- curate mental representntion of the object to be attained. The Archbishop goes on to say. “After the priest had finished his manu- script, he then took a piece of blank paper and rewrote the ser- mon. minus the errors; truly an astonishing case!"

There seems to be a very close relation between the eomnambul- istic and the mesmerii. states. In both there is voluntary action. though the will does not seem to be fully dormant, since movement appears to be in a marked degree automatic.

Persons who walk in their sleep should never be frightened into wakefulness: to do so might cause the semi-conscious walker to fall downstairs or injure himself by falling out of 3 window.‘for_ once a sleep walker wakes up sudden- ly. he is hopelessly lost, at least until he has had time to collect his senses. More than one somnabulist has been seriously injured by be- ing scared awake while descend- ing a flight of stairs, or while leaning out an open window.

Persons who. are confirmed sleep walkers should sleep on the ground floor if possible. They should also be accompanied by someone when away from home.

Absentﬂlreatment

‘aicetion From Mate Best Cure For "Fed-Up" Wife

DEAR MISS DIX: My wife claims that because of my constant lll-treatment of her aha has lost her love for me and that without love she will not go on living with me. We have two sons. one 12 and the other 7. whom we both dearly love. but she says it is best for the boys if we part My wife is of lpollen character. I consider myself the same. We both work. We are both ill-tempered at times. Her physical condition is not what it should be. I fear for her future. She says that if we patch up our difficulties it would be hell on earth for all. but I do not believe this. knowing the extent and fullness of her love. She also says that I will be the same within six months. but I have had my terrible lesson. I want to re-establish my home. I want my wife to leave her outside work. What is your advice in the matter’?

‘ E. G. .

'ANSWER: The remedy is very simple and easily applied. It consists of a railroad or steamship ticket. Send your wife off somewhere for six months, the further the better. and let her find out from actual experience what breaking up her home and separation from you will mean and. take my word for it, she will come back to you as eagerly as a bride.

CAN AVOID DIVORCE

I am firmly convinced that more than half of the divorcee could be prevented if only disgruntled husbands and wives would try the absent treatment on themselves first. A couple get fed up on each other and reach the point. where everything each does irritates the other. They can see nothing but blemishes in each other and they mull over old quarrels until they make mountains out of mole hills. Very often they are worn out and nervous and would be irritable with any one. and they find their perfect target in those to whom they are married.

I think your wife will make a terrible mistake if she leaves you
