Arctic Hysteria.

Hysteria in the arctic regions, which
somewhat resembles the running
amuck" of the Malays and the hum
ger strike demonstrations of the
British militant suffragettes, has
been a subject of some interest in a
meeting of New York doctors. The
Eskimo name for this form of ner-
Yous affection is piblokto, and it pre-
walls, says Peary in his book, THE
North Pole on the western coast of
Greenland. He says: "The patient,
usually a woman, begins to scream
and tear off and destroy her clothing.
If on a ship, she will walk up and
down the deck, screaming and gestic-
ulating, and generally in state of
nudity, though the thermometer may
be in the minus forties. AS the in
tensity of the attack increases, she
will sometimes leap over the rail up
on the ice, running perhaps half
mile. The attack may last few min
utes, an hour OF even more, and some
sufferers become so wild that they
would continue running about on the
ice perfectly naked until they froze
to death if they were not forcibly
brought back. The attack usually
ends in a fit of weeping" The cause
of these singular manifestations is
said to be a kind Of love hunger
Most Eskimos are cruel to their wives
and piblokto comes because the dis
couraged woman imagines no one
cares for er."-Indianapolis News.

RESINOL STOPS
ITCHING INSTANTLY

It is q fact that the moment Resinol
Ointment touches itching skins, the
itching stops and healing begins. With
the aid of Resinol Soap, it almost al
ways clears away all trace of eczema,
ringworm, pimples, blackheads, or
other tormenting, unsightly eruption
quickly, leaving the skin clear and
healthy.
And the best of it is you need never
hesitate to use Resinol Soap and Resi-
mol Ointment. There is nothing in them
to injure the tenderest surface. Resi-
mol is doctors prescription which for
eighteen years has been used by care
full physicians for all kinds OF skin af-
fections. They prescribe Resinol free
ly, confident that its soothing, healing
action is brought about by medication
so bland and gentle as to be suited to
the most delicate or irritated skin
even of tiny baby.
Resinol is sold by practically every
druggist in the United States, but you
ran prove at our expense what it will
do for you. Write today to Dept. I'm,
Resinol, Baltimore, Nd, and we will
send you by parcel post liberal trial
of Resinol Ointment and Resinol Soap.

New Auditing
Methods Practiced.

state Auditor Callahan also visited the
state prison recently and began auditing
accounts, leaving two bookkeepers there
10 carry on the work. This is the nrst
tine that the State auditor has ever done
the work in this way, but under the new
methods now in operation in the State
auditors office in regard to auditing of
accounts of State Institutions under the
law, this method is now inaugurated. 1t
cannot help resulting, it is believed. in
much closer and more exact auditing
OF accounts than ever before, and doubt
less much good will come from 1t.
One of the matters taken up at the
state prison was the bill for water.
winch amounts to about $500 a year.
The result will probably be the installa-
tlon OF meter which will show the
number of gallons used, and the publica-
ton of this measurement, SO that the
public will have a basis of COMPARISON
with the prices paid for water elsewhere
AS was said recently In regard to the
nghting bills at the Augusta Insane hos
pital and at the State Capitol, meas
ures will be taken to see If the State Is
paying more or less than what other
buyers of similar commodities pay for
them. For instance, Maine is paying
about $1,000 per annum for electric lights
and power at the Insane hospital and at
the Capitol. Many good judges of such
things believe that it will be an economy
Tor Maine to put in its own plant for
these two public institutions.

almost Immediately after the aE>S7oa-
ment was adopted the good roadn SSm-
mittee of the State Board of Trade took
the matter up and sought the advice and
help of the government experts at Wash
ington. They sent a man to Maine who
made an extensive study of the State,
geographically and economically, and it
was by such a process of reasoning as
1 have mentioned that the government
agent laid out his basic plan for division
of this money.
1.-The Board of Trade committee believ-
ed, however. that still another element
should be added, that of valuation of es-
tates by counties. The members then
proceeded, with the assistance of an ex-
pert engineer, to work out an elaborate
table of percentages, taking into ac-
count population, farm area road mile
age and valuation, and reached the con-
cluson that the division of the 5000, 900
bond issue upon some such method
would be equitable. 1t was felt that by
population alone would be unfair. also by
valuation alone, but when these essen
tial elements are offset by farm acreage
and road mileage the question seems to
assume some form of equability and
justice
Although the Board of Trade commit
tee recognized that no absolute, unvary-
ing division should be made, that there
would be various considerations that
might fairly lead to alterations in these
figures it made out the following table
of division:

Highway Division
Proving a Puzzle.

The State Highway Commission is at
present contemplating one Of the most
bothersome problems it has had since
its inauguration-the division of the
100000 bond issue for an inter-lock-
ing system of State Highways.
The Constitutional provision permit
ting the Legislature to issue bonds for
this purpose carries with it the re-
quirement that the proceeds shall be
divided and expended equitably among
the 16 counties.
"In considering this question" says
Lyman II. Nelson, chairman Of the
commission, Il think the average per-
son would say this money should be
divided upon the basis of population
of the various counties, as that would
appear to give the greatest good to the
greatest number.
But on examining the matter fur
ther it appears division in this man
ner might not properly take care OF
the large farming sections where the
need of good roads is most important,
but where the population is small
Therefore, 1t seems fair that the area
Of farming lands should become an
clement in developing a basis of divis-
ion in order to offset properly the pre-
ponderence of population in certain To-
calities.
Then again it appears that certain
counties having large farming area
may have comparatively few roads.
While other counties will have many
more miles of highway for the same
acreage; and it would appear that this
element should also be given consider
alton, as the counties having large
mileage of road should receive per-
haps more consideration than the
counties having q small mileage.
