The Business Instinct.

An English farmer, taking his little
son with him. was going to the
polling station to give his vote. On
the way he met friend on the same
errand, and the two entered into con-
versation. After an excited and heat
ed argument about the budget they
came to blows. The poor lad was
much frightened, and, seeing that his
father was getting the worst of it,,
suddenly called out to him:
Hit him in the watch, father;
that'n cost him something"

Need of Beds for consumptlves.

The National Association for the
Study and Prevention of tuberculosis
says that in seven states, Alabama,
Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Oklahoma,
Wyoming and Utah, with a combined
population of over 100000, not one
bed for consumptives has been pro-
vided. In nine states and territories,
Alaska, Delaware, Florida, Kansas,
Mississippi, South Carolina, South Da-
kota, Vermont and West Virginia, the
number of beds for consumptives in
each case is less than fifty, while the
combined population of these states is
over 100000. On the basis of 400
deaths to a million of population,
which is approximately the present
rate in the United States, there would
be nearly 5000 deaths annually from
tuberculosis in these IA states, with at
least 10000 cases of this disease all
the time, and less than 500 beds to
care for them.

If parents will give just a little in.
,telligent thought to the feeding Of
their children the difference in the

A mother writes saying: "Our chill

we made a change in the character Of
the food. We have quit using pota-
toes three times a day with coffee
and so much meat.
Now we give the little folks some
fruit, either fresh stewed, or canned,
some Grape-Nuts with cream, occa-
sionally some soft boiled eggs, and
some Postum for breakfast and sup
per- Then for dinner they have some
meat and vegetables.
"It would be hard to realize the
change in the children, they have
grown SO sturdy and strong, and we
attribute this change to the food ele-
ments that, I understand, exist in
Grape-Nuts and Postum.

that of the oblate palate, which has
proved to be a valuable aid to those

"Scme Important Factors In the So
luton of the Race Problem was the
subject of an interesting and highly
instructive lecture which was deliver
ed by the Rev Charles f. Walker
LII. D., Of Augusta. Ga. at the Holy
Trinity Baptist church in Brooklyn on
Tuesday evening. Aug. %.
In order to give every one who cared
to attend an opportunity to hear the
distinguished orator the Rev. S. W.
Timms, pastor Of the church, decided
charged. The result was a crowded
house
DR.. Walker is one Of the ablest and
most influential pastors and educators
Of the race. He has travelled all over
the United States on lecturing tours
and is therefore widely known. His
experience In London, Paris and the
Holy Land a few years ago furnished
much of the material for his lectures
in this country.
In the course Of his interesting lee
ture Dr. Walker said that, while at
times the treatment Of the Negro as
citizen by some Of the people Of the
United States was very harmful to
the well being Of the race, he was not
discouraged. as he believed a bright
future was in store for the people Of
his race.
The speaker condemned lynchlngs
and other inhuman treatment and IN
timated that the silence Of the federal
government in such matters was a
dangerous policy, since mob violence
is becoming more and more to know
no color, creed or condition.

speaker, conduct ourselves as a race
In such manner as to merit the

methods in doing SO. Stand up" said

MANS THREE FOES IN LIFE.
Dr.. w. L. Hunter Tells How to Over.
come Them.

come Them.
In recent sermon at the Concord
Baptist Church of Christ in Brooklyn
the Rev. William. L. Hunter, NJ. D.,
chose for his subject The Battle of
Life" The discourse was based on
Revelation ii, II, He that overcometh
shall not be hurt of the second death"
He said in part:
The question of life and death is the
most important TO the human family.
Everybody loves to live and to that end
applies his energy and effort. No one
cares particularly for death or has any
special love for 1t.
Death makes nothing good which was
not good before; hence the suicide finds
no advantage in taking his life. His is
dead hope. Even the lower order of ami
mails dread death and cling to life. The
fowls of the air shrink from death The
subject before US this evening brings us
to a consideration of death from two
viewpoints.
First, the separation of the soul from
the body. When a man is separated
from his wife permanently they are dead
to each other. Just so with the man who
is out of God. He is dead to God and
God to him. When a man leaves this
world his spirit separates from his body
and takes its flight for its final destina-
ton.
The second death, which means separa-
ton from God forever if a soul has made
no preparation, is a worse death than the
first. The soul does exist and is conscious
of it; otherwise it could not experience
Joys and sorrows. When brought before
God every thought, word or action from
the day of mans birth to his death is
reckoned. If he has done his best the
account balances In his favor; If not, then
God deals with him according to his
deeds
1t is not what you said or did, but what
you really were, that will count with God.
He that overcoueth shall not be hurt of
the second death" There are three foes
with which man must battle in this life
the world, the flesh and the devil God did
not intend that we should not enjoy this
beautiful earth or the things provided
herein for mans comfort, but the princi-
pies of this world are against God The
spirit of get something, no matter how,
is against God
When a mans soul is converted that
does not mean his flesh. The flesh has all
of the passions and appetites it ever had
has absolutely undergone no change and
will undergo none until the mortal puts
on the immortal.
How, then. can We deal with the flesh?
By adhering to the spirit, which controls
the flesh and by the will power which is
IN US Man would fall into many pit and
bypath did he not heed the command of
the spirit which bids him come The
spirit acts upon matter thus giving the
man who is desrous Of doing right an
opportunity to do so. A great many peo-
pie think they can make friends with the
devil. There is no compromise He will
tell you all sorts of things and was never
known to tell the truth. You have three
weapons with which to fight this battle
God the Father God the Son and God the
Holy Ghost. Faith. love and obedience
will conquer all of your struggles and
hardships and enable you to overcome
death.
