NERVOUS BREAKDOWNS. Something About the Life and Health of Girls. Baltimore Sun. Among the medical magazines oi zhe past month no article is better worth the att-!ntion of well-to-do fam ilies than Dr. James H. McBride's <contribution to "The Alienist and Neuroogist" on "The Life and Health of our Girls." In it he makes dear why it is that nervous break -downs are most frequent precisely among the classes which have ap parently the least to worry about. and show a striking tendency to in crease as we go away from the plain living of our ancestors. In his brieT his position is as follows: "The girls of the present day who are brought up under more comfort able conditions than their grandmoth ers have gained much. no doubt, in the change of conditions: but they have lost something in that in many homes there is less of healthy exei eise, less of that kind of work that ,developed the body and also develop ed simple and healthy tastes. There is as a result of this poorer physical development, less feeling of respon sibility in the home on the part of the young ladies and not so great a 1ense of duty. When every member -af the family had everyday. specific duties-work to do that had to be done, work that exercised the body as well as the moral sense in dis charging a duty-such life, dreary ana harsh as it sometimes was and often barren of most of those things that we regard as comforts-. had at least the great advantage of providing work that provided physical exercise and that was also done under the sense of obligation. There is a morat and physical healthfulness in such a ;fe that goes to the making.of strong and simple characters and that puts purity of blood and vigor of consti tution into descendants. "The number of young women who soon after marriage break down from the unexpected strain of new duties is very large. The mother of a young woman who had become a net vous invalid within two years after marriage said to me there was nv apparent cause for her daughter's illness, as she had been shielded from everything from childhood. Why, in deed. should anyone be shielded? Was it ever the case anywhere that a person who had been shielded grew to be a forceful character or provea a success in presence of the swift and onerous demands of life?" These remarks have a moral value that make them as well worth quoting in the pulpit as in the consulting room. HELD HIM IN HIGH ESTEEM. What The Common Soldiers Thought of Stonewall Jackson. Few generals were so beloved and revered by their soldiers as Stonewvall Jackson. the "great flanker," wvas by his. His simplicity, strength, daring. skill and indomit.able will endeared him to his troops, while his successes roused their admiration. Whenever great cheering was heard in Jackson's camp those who were detained from being present it the occasion would say: "Were comes either Jackson or an old rabbit." While in camp and winter quarters, Jackson's soldiers indulged in jocular stories--"camp stories." as they we called, made up by them about their general. "Stonewall died," ran one of these stories, "and two angels came down from heaven to take him back with them. They went to his tent--he was not there: they went to the prayex meeting-he was not there. So they had to return without him. But whien they came,to heaven they found that he had made a flank march and had reached heaven ahead of them." Another story was this: The soldiers declared that General Jackson was greater than Moses. "It took Moses." they said. "forty years to lead the Israelites through the witderness. with manna to feed them on: Stonewall Jack:son woula have doubie-quicked them through it in three days on half rations.'' At one time when Jackson's camp was on the southern bank of the Rap pahannock and that of the Federals on the northern bank of the river, a. friendly intercourse-not only confin ed to the exchange of coffee and to-* of the two armies, and friendly greet ings were often exchanged across the river. One day. when Jackson rod along the river and the Confederate troops ran togriter. as was their cus tom, to greet him with a yell, the Fed eral pickets shouted across the roiver, asking what it was all about. "Stone wall is coming," was the reply. ant immediately. to Jackson's astonish ment. the cry "Hurrah for Stonewal Jackson!" rang out from the Federal ranks. Thus the voice of north and south, prophetic of a time of renewed unity. mingled in acclamation of a great soldier. Los Angeles Times. Not a Sick Day Since.
