For some time past a considerable amount of attention has been directed, not only on the Continent, but also in the United States, to the provision for epileptics in separate cottages on the same estate, and this article has been written in the hope that it may lead to the early establishment of an “epileptic colony,” which shall be a home for the homeless, an industrial institution for those to whom ordinary avenues of trade are shut, a hospital where cure or some alleviation shall be possible, and an educational centre for the training of the young, thus creating a prosperous, industrious, and thriving community to serve as a model for many other such yet to be founded in this country. The word “home,” or “colony,” is suggested as being free from the repulsiveness which might attach to the name “asylum,” which would be somewhat of a misnomer.
