Rev. w. N. Mair spoke on rhs
Young Man and His HABITS. HIS

habits, such as the use of tobacco
and drinking of liquor. and % Illus
!trations Of how detrimental these
habits were to young men he said:
Let any young man who Is habit
ual cigarette smoker apply at bank
Tor a position and see how soon ha

Mr.. Mair related an incident Of On
old man, who had been life long
drinker and had been in jail several
times and was at the time serving
three months for being drunk and
disorderly, whose attention he called
to the swell living of the saloon keep
er where he got his drinks. who had
a $4,000 automobile and splendid
modern house furnished with the
the very best. The old man In his
misery of jail'life and without home
or friends said: II helped to pay fer
that saloon keepers luxuries, and I
am without even friend because of
my evil habits" s3 +. s
The speaker then told Of the good
habits young men should make such
as reading good literature. learning
some useful trade or profession and
being of service In the world. He
told of slum boy who was adopted
by an old lady and as he grew to man
hood the young people Of the town
looked down upon him, but he work

went out West and took claim and
did well and bought more land until
he became a successful farmer, and
returned to the town where the old
lady adopted him and showed the
people there who slighted him that
he was man, while many Of them
through bad habits had gone down.
The address was listened to with

Churches and tuberculosis.

Statistics showing how serious a
problem tuberculosis is to the ordi-
nary church congregation have been
issued by the National Association
for the Study and Prevention OF
tuberculosis. From reports received
from over 725 churches, with mem
bership Of over $4,000 communicates
of twenty denominations, and from
POS cities and towns in IL states in
various parts Of the country, out Of
nearly 1000 deaths In 1910, over 700
or 10 per cent were caused by tuber-
culosis. This means 2.24 deaths for
every thousand members or COM
municants. While the percentage of
deaths from tuberculosis compared
with other diseases is not higher in
the churches, according to these fig
ures, than in the country at large, the
tuberculosis death rate, as shown by
the church returns, is higher per
thousand communicates than that for
the general population in the registra-
ton area of the United States, which
the census bureau gave as 1877 In
1909.
