In a t·ccent numbet· ol' Ute Northwest �led!c!ne Is printed an Interesting arti­cle by Dr. Ernest Crutche1·, of Montana, vn '"fhe l'ena!ty or Genius," wlllch, If answering no other Jmrpol!€, says the Chl<>ngo Tribune, Is conw!atlon to the soldier to tho great army of the medl· oc•·e who makes a "carcass of his body and a jelly or his brain."

'l'bc geography of his abiding place may have something to do wltb the max· lm wHh wltlcb be begins his roftecllonl. "Genius, In one respect, Is like goid­numbers of IJCrsons are constantly Wflt� ing about bOth who have neither." A study of the biography of the lntell<ctu· al genluliOS of .all history seems to IDdl· cato that pru;sessloo of great talent Is had at l'eartul price. The most cursory examination of the list nf great men will manifest an ap1>all lng number of cpllepth:s, lnKane, neurotics, moral p�r­verts, misanthropes, hYIJOcbondrlacs, or misshapen bodies.

Nor Is the list limited to Jtoets, anthon, statesmen and eoldlera, for there is scarcely a musician whose name bas not come down to ue as famous who was not lll<ewlse In some way allllcted.

"Gr·eat wit to madnell>l sllte Is close all ied," said old Dryden, and be spoke trul)', Macaulay declared "all poets In· satlf!." The writings of eo me of tbe giant Intellects of bl�tory plainly aYow uncontrollable Impulses to Insane acta and many toward eu1�!<1l':'. The ro11,��J of self-destroyed men of letters ·Ia a long me, aor. was there any reasonable ex­cuse for It except an uncontrollable lm· pulse to such an act.

Swift, Johnson, Soutliey, Cowper, By­ron, Shelly, Goldsmith, Lut.ber, Lamb, Poe, Socrates, Rlcbelleu, Goethe, Crom­well, Rousseau, .Joan of Arc, Mozart, Chopin, Tasso, Beethoven-bow long the list might be made!-all exhibited Insanity in active form or were afflicted ,.·ltb balluclnaUons. Caesar, Mo­hammed, Paul the apostle, Byron, Na· poleon, Charles V., Cambyses, Pctl'!r the Great, Moliere were epileptics, Pope was a little "crooked thing" and a prey to balluclaatlona.

To undertake to catalogue all the noted men and women In the world nf let· ters and music who suffered from nerv­ous complaints, melancholia, or de­lusions of special sense would stretch the list out to startling length. In near· ly every Instance of extraordinary men· tal power, either of authorship, lm·en­tlon, or music, there seemEd attached or consequent some nervous aff'ect·ion or strong disposition to Insanity. Suicide lias been the 'commonest ending of the great. men of the world. Standing out almost alone as a welfllalanced man Is the name of the greatest of them all­Shakespeare·.
