NEEDED IMPROVEMENTS ‘
AT THE ASYLUM.
It must ba quite c`c.ir to any in-
telligent person vlii kiiows 110*
Lunatic Asylum- elsewhere are con-
ditioned and managed, and who has
read the recently published and
alirming evidence ihar many changes|
and improvements are imperatively
needed in the iiistirutiovi at Falcoii-
wood, The mire important of tl~°='e
may be here set down in brit 0. ,
More frequent visits by the Trus-'|
tees,as often as once a week, and at
irregular intervals by day and night,
so that the visit will not be expected;§
and thorough inspection at each'
visit. .
A resident Msdicil Superintend-l
ent, who shall be an expert in mental
diseaseS,and shall give his entire timei
to the institution and the cure of itsl
inmates. He alone should receive
new patients. He should have the
appointment and control of all the at-
tendants. Two male and two female
attendants to have special training in
nursing and caring for the sick and
in the administration of medicine,
keeping record of cases with state of
pulse, temperature etc.
In the building the following
changes and improvements are neces-
sary:
An improved or remodeled heating
system should be put in and fires kept
up during the night so as to give a
guiiicient and equable heat in the
rooms and corridors, in connection
with which a record of the tempera-
ture should be kept.
A large part of the present single
floors and ceilings, being saturated
with the slops and excretions spilled
in the rooms, need to be removed and
tight double floors and new plastering
of the ceilings supplied.
A hospital, a dispensary, and a
morgue are imperative necessities,
Storm windows should be pro-
vided for winter; and with improved
heating apparatus a system of ventila-
tion should bs put in that would eu-
surs aconstant change of air in the
l'00lIlB.

The dining hall should be enlarged
and suitably equipped
These changes cannot all be made
until the new wing, so urgently need-
ed, is erected. But provision should
be made at once to improve the pre
seat building and its outfit as far as
possible. It would bs criminal to de-
lay any longer the preparation for
,erecting the new wing.

There should be a close and care-
ful inspection of the food supplies
as from time to time received, by the
Supervisor, who should be held an-
swerable for their merchantable and
wholesome quality.
Why, should not the unfortunate
_ insane in this Province have as good
a chance of cure, or of comfortable
maintenance as the insane of any
other civilized country 'Z This they
cannot have until the above named
changes, improvements and addi-
tions to the Asylum building and
1 its management are eiected.
These are matters in which we all
have an interest. Tens of thousands
of our people have friends or relatives
more or less distantly connected who
suffer from mental derangement. The
1 most healthful, the most gifted
among us may yet become insane. In
fact every consideration of humanity,
of mercy and even of self interest calls
for prompt and thorough reform in
the Insane Hospital of the Island.

iiuiied our investigation iheie and at ihel
Provincral Buildii g, until the evening of
Friday, the ihirieenth instant. We be-
lieve- our ~-:iquiry has been as tiicroiigii as
necessary and as circunisiances would t.l~`
low.
Uniil ihe stenographer’s notes of evi-
dence are translated and copied we are
unable io prepare a com plete and detailed
ie-port of our investigation.
In pursuing the enquiry one niatler Of
supreme importance engaged our mo-t
serious consideration, namely, the system
of heating the building during the winier
season. It came out in evidence that the
wards and rooms occupied by the patients
and their caretakers were often uncomfort-
ably cold-the windows are leaky, admit~
iing at times snow or rain-tha; ine heats
ing apparatus' is imperfect-and
that this imperfect apparatus
is not l-ept in operation during ihe night,
even in the coldest weather, but the lifes in
the furnace are banked regularly ai nine or
ten o’cl0ck, p. in. and allowed to reniain
so until about five o’clock in the morning,
so that the temperature falls so low as to
oimpel even the attendants on ilutv ii'
night to wear overcoais or oiher exira
clothing to keep themselves warm.
It further appears that owing to the
defeciive heaiing apparatus, or some other
cause,:he rooms on the soiih side ofthe
building receive no current of warmth
when the wind blows from the south.
We are so strongly mpressed with the
urgent necessity of remedying this siaie of
things withoutdelay in view of the near
approach of winter, that we hasten to call
the immediate attention of Your Honor’s
Government to th- matter and to recom-
mend,-
1. 'l but a competfnt architect be at once
directed io examine the system of heating
in use at ihe hoapiial, with a view af im-
proving the apparatus or of putting in an
entirely new system. »
2. That outside or storm windows be put
on all the windows on the south side of the
building.
, 3. That the Supervisor he directed to

This gn! properly read,
“It costs ore to BE ill than "
io BE well." The source
of all healifi is rich. strong
blood. If is to the body
what the mighty streams are
to the earth. If the blood is
pure, the body thrives; if the
blood is weah or impover-
ished, then every pulse-beat
carries weakness instead of
strength. _
Why make the cost of living more
than it need be? Purify your blood and
give your constitution a chance to do
its level best. The only perfect blood
purifier and vigor-maker in existence
is the world-famed I-Iood’s Sarsaparilla..
It brings good, perfect health. It never
disappomts.
