Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wear and Tear: Or Hints for the Overworked HE rate of change in this country in edu cation, in dress, and in diet and habits of daily life surprises even the most watchful American observer. It is now but twenty-five years since this little book was written as a warning to a restless nation possessed of an en ergy tempted to its largest uses by unsurpassed opportunities. There is still need to repeat and reinforce my former remonstrance, but I em glad to add that since I first wrote on these subjects they have not only grown into impor tance as questions of public hygiene, but vast changes for the better have come about in many of our ways of living, and everywhere common sense is beginning to rule in matters of dress, diet, and education.
