MILITIA MOVES.
New, York Armories Alive With
Preparations For Battle At Pine
Camp. tH

Every armory in New York is today
alive with the preparations of the citi
zen soldiers who are next week to be
led away to Pine Camp to. do battle
with the militia and regular troops of
all New England. Scattered by day
through the skyscrapers Of the down
town districts, the members of the
local regiments are devoting their
night leisure to furnishing up for their
annual foray. With special siege of
bulet-less warfare; staring them In
|fhe face. the paraders are taking
pains to harden their muscles by most
strenuous sessions at golf and tennis.
Down at Governors Island where the
regulars are stationed the year round,
no sign of the impending conflict is
now to be seen. Nevertheless the
militiamen who manoeuvred last sum
mer shoulder to shoulder with the pro-
fessional campaigners are confident
that they must exert every energy TO
keep up with the regular war game.

STRUCK BY LIGHTNING.
Barn of F. J. Robbins, Chelsea, Burned
Saturday Afternoon-Loss About $500.

During thunder shower late Sat
urday afternoon a stable on the farm
owned by Frank J. Robbins and locat-
ed on the Winslow road in Chelsea
about mile and half below Augusta,
was struck by lightning and burned to-
gether with its contents. consisting of
hay and farming tools. The end of the
house was also badly scorched by the
flames, but through the efforts of the
members OF the family assisted by
other people in that vicinity who had
been summoned by telephone. the
house was saved. The estimated loss
is about $4O0. on which it is understood
that there was no insurance.

PASSING OF COUNTRY DOCTOR.
Automobiles Are Putting Him Out
of Business.

While all authorities admit that there
are too many doctors in America today
and that the medical schools are turning
them out in far greater numbers than
will be needed for generations to come.
the closing of the smaller medical col
leges, as planned by the Carnegie Foun-
dation. will have serious. effect upon
the country at large. And for this rea-
son: The crossroads doctor is already
passing.
The heads of the big medical colleges
receive letters almost every day from
small country towns saying that the vii
lage doctor is dead and that there is a
good opening for young physician. The
graduates of the big medical schools who
themselves for their life work are unwil-
ling to settle down in small commune
ties. They want to begin their practice

In a general practice. especially in a
small town. where even with the hardest
work it is impossible to make more than
$1,000 or $4,000 year. Accordingly, the
country towns are supplied today by the
smaller medical colleges, which students
The students atthese colleges are usually
without much money and they return to
their country districts to pactice. So
when many of these smaller medical
schools are wiped out Of existence-as
they will be within comparatively short
time-the country will be confronted
with a new problem-the problem of the
village doctor.
The graduates of the big schools will
not settle in towns of 1.5OO Inhabitants,
and when the old doctors die big dis
tricts will be left without proper medical
attention.
DIR. Henry Pritchett, president of the
Carnegie Foundation, says there is not
the great need of country doctors that
there used to be, for the reason that the
modern ply stefan in his automobile can
cover three or four times as much
ground as his predecessor. Then, too.

Consider This Advice.

No woman should submit to surgi-
cal operation, which may mean death,
until she has given Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, made exclusive
ly from roots and herbs, a fair trial.
This famous medicine for women
has for thirty years proved to be the
most valuable tonic and invigorator of
the female organism. Women resid-
ing in almost every city and town in
the United States bear willing testi-
mony to the wonderful virtue of Lydia

those you love, give it trial. :"

TEETH SHOW CHARACTER.
Experts Agree That Dentition Is A.
ways Indicative Of Temperament.

That teeth are more fragrant telltales
of character than any other human fea-
tnre will come as a surprise to most
people.
According to the French dentists it has
been demonstrated that each type OF
dentition infalliby brand the owner in
his true colors, and a table has beer
made of what each set denotes, as fol.
lows:
straight teeth show vanity. -
Long and protruding teeth show ego

denote Inconsistency.
Small. closely set teeth are the marks
of uneven temperament and neuras-
thenic tendencies
A well-known London dentist agreed
almost entirely with the deductions OF
the French dentists .,,-.-..
Human beings are divided into four
principal divisions, he said, and by
combinations of these 16 main classes are
formed each having dentition typical of
their basal temperaments. The four

NO MORE MACBETH THRILLS.
Case of Tragedy Queen Diagnosed as
Plain Hysteria.

Lady Macbeth had Mysteries! Instead
of being allowed to run the castle and
the dagger chest, the famous tragedy
queen should have been in the hospital
with a trained nurse and a reputable
physician. Now the facts are known
she is more to be pitied than scorned.
Prof. Walter B. Pillsbury of the Uni
versity of Michigan, diagnosed Lady
Macbeths case in lecture on "Abnor-
NAL Phases of Mental Experience last
Friday at the law building of the Univer-
sity of Chicago. Prof. Pillsbury said the
lady's trouble was plain case of hys-
terra, as shown by her sleepwalking ex-
hibition. in which, as reported by VIII
liam Shakespeare. she thoughtlessly ex-
claimed:
"Out, damned ~spot"'
Modern psychology has found out that
Lady Macbeth's ideas were disassociated
which is equivalent to charging her with
a weakness in the head. but which re-
lieves her of some, of the responsibility
of helping her husband murder the king
of Scotland and stirring up the neigh
borhood. In a sense, Lady Macbeth was
as unfortunate as the weird sisters
who stirred the caldron in the cave and
put Macbeth up to his bloody tricks.
| 1t had been known that Lady Macbeth
was ffightfully ambitious and inclined
to nag her lord, but if her family knew
she was hysterical it was hushed up
around the castle and not mentioned by
Shakespeare. The old-fashioned doctor,
who was called after she contracted the
sleepwalking habit, called her aff1iction
'siumbery agitation and chick coming
fancies."J
1.-The sleepwalking scene in Macbeth
is good illustration Of hysteria," said
Prof. Pillsbary. Lady Macbeth comes
in, complains of the blood on her hands.
In other words, she lives over again in
completeness the murder scene which has
had such powerful effect upon her i'm
agination. The blood seems real to her
and so does the dagger
The announcement was news to the
university students, although Prof. Pills
bury said it had been mentioned by a
French critic. The University of Michi-
gan psychologist related strange cases of
hypnotism and double personality, and
suggested the cure Of the liquor habit

SELECTING WOODS.
Microscopes Now Used for Examina
ton of Specimens of Timber.

Not very long ago timber was Sc
lected entirely according to it's ex-
ternal appearance. The diameter and
length of the piece, the straightness
of grain, sometimes the weight suf-
feed to determine both it's CONNER
cial value and ITS destination. At that
time on account of the difficulty of
transportation woods Of local origin
were almost exclusively employed. 1t
is very different nowadays.
With the increase in consumption
and the decrease in the local produc-
ton of wood it has become necessary
to transport timber of every variety
and of many places of origin. Furth-
ermore the diversified industries Of the
present day require corresponding
diversity in the wood employed. For
one purpose the important quality is
hardness, for another. elasticity; for a
third, ease of working, or resistance
to attack by external agencies. 1t is
evident that very different qualities
are required for an umbrella handle,
a barrel stave. billiard cue. a car
riage frame. etc
The hand magnifying glass. which
was first employed. has ceased to SUI
flee for the exact determination Of the
structure of the wood. The com
