the next apartment to mine. He is
a travelling man, and although 1 only
have a bowling acquaintance with
him l always can tell where he has
been on his last trip by the names Of
the hotels on the towels he uses. He
never returns from a journey with

VIII PREACHERS LIVE Lore
Profession Calculated In Many Way
to Guarantee Old Age to
Possessor.

The British statistics Of mortality,
just published, show what we all
knew before, that more clergymen
live to old age than the members OF
any other profession. What is the
reason? asks the Independent In
part, that they are little older IN
entering their profession than almost
any other business, which cuts out,
in the statistics, those who die before
25. Next, they live regular life,
with no excuses and they take q
moderate amount of exercise, while
mostly protected against exposure.
Then something may be credited to
the philosophy of religion, which
tends to an equable frame of mind

What can be done in the United
States to mitigate the tramp nuis-
ance? Readers of the newspapers
must have noticed that during the
last few years the reports of vagrancy
and mendicancy have greatly increas-
ed. The railroads Of the United
States are said to be losing at least
$25, 100000 a year through the depre-
dations of Migrants along their lines.
Poorhouses, prisons and public hos
pitfalls are filled with the vagrant
class. They are a costly parasite,
and the whole country is beginning
to cry out for some cure for the tramp
and the vagrant.

we hope to learn from the Europeans

report informally that from fifty to
seventy-five per cent of the poverty

ance. They will not say that sevent-
five per cent of the poverty and crime
is caused by intemperance, but that
it plays a part greater probably than
any other single factor. Is 1t not a
fact that in almost every family can
be found somewhere the problem OF
inebriety, and despair over the proper
and successful way of restoring the
inebriate to health and usefulness
again? Particularly pitiful IL the fact
that vast numbers of inebriates when
