There are broad fields where the

When the ponies are permitted 10

then the pony is far from beautiful.

Life in the Philippines.

The Philadelphia Medical Journal
Of April 7th is particularly interest
ing and valuable number, containing
a series Of practical articles on The
Soldiers in the Tropics" " "The SAM
tary Condition of the Far East as 1t
Affects the United States, "Bubonic
Plague" History of Bubonic Plague, "
Cuban Malaria, Control of Leprosy
in the Hawaiian Islands, "Notes on
the Philippines" etc. The last men
toned article, by surgeon of our
army, shows that the Philippines can
hardly become the home of Americans
"Many of our older officers, it is
stated, "have undergone a process of
rapid aging here without any definite
ailment to account for their condition.
They simply grow thinner day by day,
running down gradually in physical
strength as emsciation goes on, until
finally the general takes pity and
sends them home. 1t is not a coun-
try for American ladies, particularly
those who are married. til all very
nice as long as one is well, but those
who get sick don't easily recover
here Under the head of Effects Of
Campaigning" the writer, after mem
tioning the unsanitary situation due
to the swampy character Of the coun-
try, exposure to the sun and rain
while marching and fighting and the
constant strain on the nervous system
from being under the mighty fire of
the Filipino sharpshooters, says that
in his brigade of 300 men after the
first San Fernando campaign there
were 1908 sick or wounded. AS to
the 2,307 on the firing line, "the bri-
gade commander estimated that not
100 could march five miles under ex-
isting conditions. Ir one of the regi-
ments upon a careful medical eXami-
nation, Of the $40 not reported sick
only SO were reported in normal con
dition, l79 had a pulse rate of 85 to
100 aud l9l ranged from 100 to $50"
The complaint of the men was that
latter moderate exertion they breathed
very rapidly and that any sudden
noise upset their nervous balance.
1t is made clear that the nerves suffer,
while vigor diminishss, so that we are
not surprised at the large proportion
Of our soldiers who become insane.
The diseases that prevail are dysen-
terry, obstinate diarrhua, typhoid fever,
malaria. "Washerman's
itch, it is added, "exists in an aggra-
waited form, making marching impos-
sible, while boils and ulcers affect the
limbs from the irritation caused by
in mud and water Boils and
other suppurative diseases are preva-
lent and obstinate. tuberculosis pro-
,eeds rapidly to a fatal issue. Heat
exhaustion is daily seen and recovery
is long delayed. The climate is not
pernicious for those who can avoid eI-
posure, but for those who are broken
down by hardship or Incidental dis
ease complete recovery is doubtful.
Upon the whole, the Philippines are a
sort of climatic inferno for American
soldiers who have to campaign under
conditions almost sure to be fatal in
heir results.

In the Selection OF a Wife.

The old-time Puritans, who merit
admiration despite their strictness,
had these quaint rules for the selection
of wife
"a good wife should be lik. three
things, which three things she should
not be like. She should be ike a snail,
to keep within her house but should
not be like a snail, to carry all she
has on her back. She should be ike
an echo, to answer when she is called ;
but she should not be ike an echo, al

be ike town clock, always keeping
time with regularity but she should
not be like town clock, speaking so
loud as to be heard over all the town.

LAW COURT SESSIONS.
Charge in Dates Recommended at Meeting Of
Stale Bar Association.

Portland, Nc. July 17-There was a
meeting of the State Bar Association
Monday afternoon. at the City building.
which was attended by lawyers from all
parts Of the State. Judge Joseph w. Sy
monds. vice president of the association
presided. The purpose of the meeting
was to consider a report of a special com
mittec consisting of Hon. G. +. Libby.
Col. W. S. Choatc Of Augusta ana Hon.
II. NJ. Heath of Augusta, which was ap-
pointed at the last meeting of the asSo-
citation to draw up a bill amending the
law providing for the term Of the law
Court.
The lawyers feel that under the exist
ing law which provides that the terms of
the law court shall he held in May n
Augusta. in June at Bangor and in July
at Portland the terms come too near to
gether. Cases which are appealed to tn"
law court are oftentimes delayed for over
a year on account of the terms of the
law court coming 50 near together. and
the idea is to make some better arrange
ments so as to facilitate the business of
the court
AT the last meeting of the State Bar
Association, held al Auburn. the above
mentioned committee was appointed and.
yesterday, they reported bill which
would have the law court hold sessions
at Augusta in January for the entire
State. in May, at Bangor for the western
district, and in June at Portland for the
eastern district.
The report was generally discussed. 1t
was believed by some of the lawyers
present that law term at Augusta in
January would conflict with the sessions
of the Legislature. and as the accommo-
dations at Augusta during the legislative
sessions are not very good, ii was
thought best to recommend that the term
at Augusta be held in December.
| 1t was finally decided to recommend the
| passage of "A bill making the law terms
| in December for Augusta for the entire
| State at Bangor in May for the eastern
district, and in Portland in June for the
| western district.
4 committee consisting of Hon c. +.
| Libby of Portland. Col. w. s. Choate OF
| Augusta. F. f. Timberlake of Phillips,
| Matthew l.aughiin of Bangor. and John
| Morrill, of Auburn. was appointed to draw
up a bill covering these provisions to be
| submitted to the association for approval
at Augusta in February.
