the Had there is mention of Agamede,
a woman skilled in the science of medi-

occurs in the Odyssey. In France, in
the fourteenth century, we have the
negative evidence of there being wom-
en- practicing medicine and surgery,
for in a document OF 1911 surgeons
and female surgeons are forbidden to
practice if they had failed to pass 3
satisfactory examination before the
proper authorities. In England we
are told that women practiced in the

In the sixteenth century the Bench Of
Bishops gave particular attention to the

DodgIng the Bullets.

The physical effect produced upon
different men in the presence Of danger
forms an interesting study, but in many
cases the outward signs as indicated By
the actions Of the Individual in no wise
measure the degree OF courage or his
fear. The practice, for instance, Of
lodging shots. ''iack-knifing" under
fire, proceeds from a nervousness which
is often purely physical, and has but
little more significance as test of cOur-
age than winking when something is
thrown in ones face. The act is en-
tirely involuntary. A general officer
who was killed at the second battle OF
Bull Run was one of the most gallant
soldiers that ever drew a blade. Every
body had predicted his early death from
the constant and unnecessary exposure
TO which he subjected himself. When
under fire the agile lodging he per-
formed was whole gymnastic exercise
In itself. His head would bob from side
10 side and occasionally bob down to his
horses neck with all the vigor of sig

actions were entirely beyond his control
and were no indication whatever of fear.

infantry fire is very common. can re-
call only two persons who throughout a

or even winking an eye. One was a

other was General Grant. Century.

Don't Learn to Carve.

Never learn 10 carve, young man.
There is no fun in it. A knowledge Of
the art saddles you with a responsible
ity. which. while It may procure you
invitations to dinner, sits heavily on
the soul and brings wrinkles into the
forehead. II you do not perform the
work artistically. you are criticised. II
a tough fowl gets away from you and
takes refuge in lady's lap, you are
laughed at and make an enemy of the
fair one whose dress you soil or spoil.
You offend Jones if you send the ehoic-
est out to Smith. and rice cerSa. You
must send the best away and reserve
only the least to be desired for yourself.
The walters make you the subject OF
their remarks, and by putting their
heads tOget her and jerking their thumbs
over their shoulders in your direction
embarrass you dreadfully; you know
by the fiendish leer on their faces that
they have set you down as a blacksmith.
If the room is warm you are thrown in
to violent perspiration; your collar
willis, nsektie gets awry, your appetite
leaves you. and when your labors are
finished you begin your dinner with the
air of one who has been in a pugilistiC
