CURING A NERVOUS CRANK I
—-——l‘-r——-

B25“:
On the east side lives a physician whose i
3';
{success in the treatmmt of nervhus
orders has brought to :him, rather against; a»
among a. class whom he describes as
“nervous cranks. ” One of these pa-
no end of trouble to the doctor, who,
mental idiosyncrasy, was unwilling to
prescribe a course of dragging or other
.injurious treatment. The man insisted
that his nervous System was completely
unstrung and that the physician should
take his case in hand. ,
“There you can see how nervous I
am, ” said the patient one day,’ in the doc-
tor' s ofiice, as he picked up an incandes-
cent electric light bulb from an adjoin- ‘
ing table. "Look at that; See how that
carbon coil inside of the bulb vibrates
and trembles from my nervousnessl"
“Very well. " replied the physician, de-
termined now to deal with the case in
another way, “you are more nervous
than I supposed, but I think I can fetch
you out all right in five or six weeks. ”
An assortment of bogus pills and po-
tions was given to the patient, and he
was placed under a rigid rule for sleep,
diet, baths and exercise. His physical
health, v. hich had been excellent to be-
gin with, improved- steadily; but his new.
ous condition, as indicated by the fluc- ‘
tuations of the incandescent bulb, which
he found conveniently at hand every
time he visited the doctor 3 office shoWed
little or no trace of mending.
One day, however, near the end of the
fourth week, the patient, upon taking
the bulb from its ascustomed place and
holding it up to the light. was surprised
to find that the vibrations of the carbon
were almost nothing. Beaming with
new hopefulness, he called the physi-
cian’ s attention to the fact. The latter
was surprised and delighted. The pa-
tient tested himself with the bulb in his
right hand, then. changed it to his left
and then repeated the operation, always
with the same gratifying result. The
treatment had done its work. He felt
like a well man. He was satisfied from
the first that those pills would fix him
"He sailed for Europe the other day,"
remarked the physician, ‘tand as he' is to
remain abroad for five years I guess
, there is no danger of his learning how I
cured him. He was so taken with the
idea of testing the condition of his nerv-
ous system by the vibrations of the car-
bon in that electric light bulb that I hu-
mored his fancy. After three or four
weeks of careful living, and when he had
put himself into first class physical eon-
him. For the ordinary bulb containing
a carbon coil I substituted one that I
had made with a fine coil 0f oxidized
silver wire closely resembling the other
and which was so stiff that it was capa-
ble of almost no vibration when the bulb
was held in the patient’s hand. He took
it, saw_ that the vibrations had ceased
and concluded that he was cured.
, "In some way, perhaps by accident or
when' in condition bf mental excitement,
he had noticed the trembling of the car-
bon' in a bulb when held in the hand,
and had instantly made up his mind that
he was suffering frOm' nervous disorder.
He insisted upon doing the same means
in testing his progress toward recovery
that had first persuaded him that he was
ill, and I was compelled to acquiesce
and treat him from that basis. He had
evidently had little experience with these
bulbs. Ordinary tests and observation
would have shdwii him that no man,
however sound,ca1i hold an incandescent
bulb in his unsupported hand so steadily
that the carbon inside of it will not vi-
brate. ”—New York Herald.
