TIRED FEELINGS

WORLD’S WORRIES BLAMED. London, March 2. Mr. Ramsay MacDonald’s recent reference to himself as suffering from iin “invisible lack of health” exactly describes a state of mind and body that is baffling many sufferers. Scores of leaders in every department of life are “below par,” resulting in Harley Street being crowded with patients seeking explanation or cure. A psychotherapist says that, owing to stress and strain, politicians, industrialists, and bankers are obliged to increase their expenditure of energy, leading to a nervous collapse, which includes a curiously dull condition of tho bruin producing absent-mindedness and the use of wrong words. A Harley Street physician declares that the disease is noticeable everywhere. Hundreds of tired, listless people are to be seen in the streets,’ their pallad faces, dull eyes, and listless gait suggesting that even amusement is not enjoyable, much less work which, when well done, should bring a sense of elation. The reasons are partly inadequate diet, but <-liii-ll lack of sunshine in winter time. 11. best remedy, it is said, is artificial sun light.
