First and commonest of these is | overwork, particularly in the form of prolonged muscular overstrain. Men engaged in laborious occupation, such as lumbermen, porters, dock laborers, miners and day laborers of all sorts, show far the highest percentage of this arterial decay at the earliest ages, . Twenty years ago il was supposed to be the peculiar plague of the leisure a and -the sedentary occupations, but this was merely due to the that these classes alone with sufficient care to discover it. Like most of the other "diseases of he rich," the poor have them just the sume and even more frequently, only they cannot afiord the, luxury of diag- nosis and treatment. I'he next great cause of this arterial 'decay is the poisons or toxins of the different infectious "diseases. In a series of some three thewsand patients ander fifty years of spe taken in succession as they entered one of our great hos pitals and examined for arteriosclero- sis, nearly forty 'per cent. already showed this change I'he whole number were classified in- to three great groups--those who had worked hard with théir muscles, those | who recently had had one of five or| six common infectious diseases--ty- phoid, tuberculosis, syphilis,' et cetera and those who had used alcohol free- h to! Dr Hampton's system fact were studied, The results were illuminating, for of those who had engaged in hard muscu: | lar labor nearly sixty per cent. showed arteriosclerosis, of those who recently had had typhoid or tuberculosis, some forty per cent.; of those who had had | syphilis, some twenty per cent.; while of those who had used alcohol freely. | sopue fifteen per. cent showed this change From this point of view it would ap- pear that excessive industry does more to shorten life in the majority of men { than dissipation; but the group is too small to base such radical conclusions upon. Virtues sometimes seem as dan | gerous as vices, if not indulged in with strict moderation, Fo sum up Bright's disease and lother renal disturbances are probably increasing somewhat. This is only because more of us are living to .be old enough, so to speak, to have earned them. ! The chief causes of them, apart from | the necessary wear and tear of life, are muscular overwork for long hours, the attack of the infectious diseases, and the use of alcohol, all of which are perfectly preventable, and in fact | are being rapidly prevented by indus trial legislation, hy sanitary improve | and by the ' growth' of temper- an and self-restraint In other | words, civilization is curing, and will | continue to cure, the diseases which it { helped to cause. ments, Disappointed in Her.
