THE LATEST INFORMATION.

We hear much these days about relig-
ious decadence, about empty churches and
lief. but the facts do not warrant anv
such assumption. Indeed the opposite is
true. So, at least, we must conclude
from figures compiled by Rev Dr. Car
pute. They show that the membership
of the various religious bodies in the
United States at the end of the year 1901
over that at the end of 1900 has increased
in larger proportion than the population
of the country in the same period-that
is to say, the population of the country
increased between 1890 and 1900 at an an
nual rate of 2.1S per cent, while church
membership has gained in the last year
2:67 per cent. It is apparent that the
churches are holding their own. and there

that the coal shortage is a temporary

shortage is real, and it is universal in an
civilized states. 1t has been caused by
reckless waste, and by increased de-

great changes in methods of lighting and

TWENTIETH CENTURY MEDICINE

The twentieth century has almost a.
free field in medicine. Although much
has been accomplished in the treatment
of diseases, the science is still largely
experimental, and there is room for a
host of discoveries. Perhaps by the time
this century is ended there will be a.
lymph or an antitoxin or some sort Of
treatment for every i'll the flesh is heir
to, so-that few vaccinations and other
treatments will guarantee Immunity for
a long period. Then centenarians will be
as common as blackberries and a man
will be young at eighty.
