The Influence of cheerfuIne...

Nothing is more fatal to success than
discoaragement. The people Of Israel
became disheartened over the unfayor-
able report of the spies concerning the
land Of Canaan and failed to march
directly into their possessions and thus
made long journey of 40 years in the
wilderness necessary. The discouraged
man imparts his mood to others, and
thus 1t spreads like a contagion. 1t Is
better not TO display the feeling of de-
preston, even if it cannot be wholly
expunged from the mind. The man
who can be cheerful under all circum-
stances will command the best influ-
ence over others, and the very effort he
makes to look on the bright side of his
misfortunes viii have its reflex influ-
ence upon his own mind and change
his desert into an oasis ere he knows
it.-Lutheran Observer.

VITAL STATISTICS.
DEATHS, BIRTHS AND MAR
RACES IN MAINE IN 1898.
HANCOCK COUNTY HAD FOURTH FROM
LOWEST DEATH RATE-BIRTH RATE
BELOW RATE FOR STATE.

The report OF the State register OF vital
statistics for the year lsas, Is just out.
1t furnishes interesting reading for the
students of statistics.
The births, marriages and deaths for
1885 were:
Number OF births, 14.473; number of
marriages, 5,li4; numbe of deaths, 10, $50;
brit h-rste, 2l.s9; marriese-ratc, It's;
deaf h-rate, 1857.
The births were: males, 7,i3s; females,
7,0l6; not stated, 49,
Deaths: Males, $500; females, SAT, not
stated, 3.
A noteworthy and uninterrupted dim
mutton of the number OF deaths from
pulmonary tuberculosis, or consumption,
has been going on in this State ever since
the registration of vital statistics was
begun. The death-rate from consamp-
tionsper 10000 OF population, according
to the census enumeration in 1890, has
been reduced from 20.45 in 1892 to 1914 in
1898.
The reasons for this fslling-oif in the
death-rate from consumption are prob
ably more than one, but the principal
reason Is, undou btediy, that our people
are understanding more and more clearly
the significance Of the fact that puImon-
airy tuberculosis 10 4 preyentsbie disease,
and that it should be prevented.
Seven deaths in 1895 were OF centena-
rians. The oldest was John McDougai, of
Mars Hill, aged 10.
Seven hundred and sixty-four divorces
were decreed in the year 1885 (522 in 1882,
1896, aud 10 in 1877. Ia 1898, there was
decreed in Maine one divorce for every
81 marriages solemnized.
There were $50 deaths from accidents
during the year, the principal causes be-
ing as follows: Fractures, 30; gunshot,
10; railway injuries, IS, burns, 81; drown
ing, 100; falls, IS; poisoning, Is
