To {ilus- trato tho benafits of the system of treat~ ment which Dr. Wynter urges, ho describes the famous intirmary for ths insanc at Gueel, Belgium, wlers for ages the open-air treatment, a3 it is called, las been in succeesful practice. Hero 1,100 paticuts fiud homes smong a xano popalation of about 10,000, Only one building suswering to an asylum bas beea erected in tho town, and that but recontiys It is capable of sccommodatiog but sixty paticnts. In this patients ara tirst received, and detained until the nature of their malady 18 determimed, When decided that they need no special medical atten- tion, they aro diatiibuted among the cottagas and town sod farm-houses open to them. Iu 660 diferent dwellings, lunatics form part of the Lousehold, aud uharo, in eo far as they are es. pable, the occupations and the amusements of tho family. ‘Tho moro docils patients ara apportionsd emong the town-houses. and the more violent tn tho cottages and farm-houses on tie borders of tho comtnunity. Not more than threo lunatics are dumiciled under one roof, and penerally not more than one. A atrict supervision of tho wal. fs10 of tho patients is maintaived. ‘Ten physie ciana aud guardians have charge of all the in- mates of the communtty, and endless caro iy taken to secure gentlo and judicions trestment for every ono, **The individual requirementa of the luuatic are especially considered. Evon tho style of houschold uud family arrangemouts 18 ot thought too small a matter to tako into accaunt when the disposition of tho lunatic i settled.

IHarmless lunaties aro distributod among thelr frionds or in licensed houses; and the plan works well. The mortality among themis lower than smong tho lusans poor in English asylume, Dr. Wynter warmly advocates tho adoption of this systunt of open-air treatmout overywhere, that asyloms may bo retioved of the throng of tweurablo pationta that crowd their wards, liv this arraugeinent, room would be wado for the admission of acute caves that domand immediate medical trentmoant, yot are ofton compelled to stand vo long without, knockiog at the door, that the period of posuible curs {s pasaed, and thoy go ta swell the army of hopoleas lunatics. 1y tho abovo absiract made from & jortion of Dr. Wynter's book. tho raader way judgo how yprolific of facts and hints the work Tue nov- eral papers it coutaius, headed in tho Treatment of the Insan ing of {mbecits Children,* **The Swicidal Act," etc., etc,, smple, lucid style, that ma Lle, as it 1s juont instruotiv Brain-Enig aro written in s kos eawy aud agroea. . roading, SOCIAL SCIENCE.
