CURSE or SOCIETY Is EASE,
SAYS BISHOP SMITH

New York, Oct. 12--Aiexander Mac
kay Smith. Bishop Coadjutor of Penn
sylvania. with Mrs. Mackay Smith, re-
turned to-day from London.
The bishop had some interesting
things to say. "Wordliness is the
worlds greatest evil," said Bishop
Smith. TOO much money, too much
prosperity make men and women care
less Of their souls salvation" Asked
IL he considered such wealth as Nor
gans or Rockefeller's Objectionable
Bishop Smith said 1T is the general
tendency toward high living that
criticise and not individuals. Too
much fine food and rafment and too
many fast autos sap the spiritual vi
tality of those who indulge in them"
Bishop Smith also paid some at
tention to the divorce evil, saying II
grew largely out of expensive luxury
If you can add to competency, and
honesty, enterprise In want advertis-
ing. you can find work.

HOTEL RUINED BECAUSE
IRIS TOO NEAR TO CHURCH.

New York. Oct. 1.-THE great
Hotel Gotham on Fifth avenue
is to be sold under the hammer
within few days, the foreclos-
ure having been ordered on a
mortgage judgment for $465,Ooo.
The hotel cost nearly $4,000
600.
After 1t was built II was
discovered that It's site was
within 200 feet OF the Fifth
avenue Presbyterian church. A
statute prohibits the sale of
LIQUOR within 500 feet OF a
church. Hence the great hos
telry has been 'dry'' and its lack
OF success has been attributed to
this fact.
Recently the manager OF the
hotel committed suicide because

than the annual appropriation to the

Six years, which IL considered a fair

Even in our ordinary experience
how is a habit formed7 Watch mar

tian Register. A new thing is done
with high degree of conscious effort;
each step Is deliberately thought out,
and every movement is assiduously
guided. Do this again and again; with
repetition there is a decrease of con-
scious effort, but an increase of ease,
grace, facility. These forces below the
consciousness are taking over the
guidance of the physical activities.
And many things, once they have be-
