Y. NJ. c. A. NOTES.

On next Sunday afternoon the
subject for the meeting will be "The
Crucihxion and Burial of Christ.
All men and boys are very cordially
invited to be present. There are
only two more of these meetings in
this course. You may look for a
fine speaker on Sunday afternoon
to handle this important subject.
Do not fail to attend these last two
meetings.
On last Monday evening the board
of directors met to discuss plans for
the financial campaign. An elegant
luncheon was served by the Ladies
Auxiliary which was enjoyed and
appreciated by all present. At the
business session two teams were
selected to compete in raising the
funds. Mr.. ]. a. Gilman and Mr..
L. n. Belcher were the captains.
Very effective work was done by
the teams and the captains proved
to be excellent generals. The cam
paign was very successful as far as
carried, but because of some men
wanting time to consider and some
being out of town the amount re-
quired to carry on the work this
year is not quit raised yet, but will
be undoubtedly as soon as the re-
mainder of the subscriptions are Sc
cured.

Central City Loses in Census.

The ceLs1s bureau Tuesday gave
out a list of many Kentucky towns
and cities, showing the population
as returned. There were many sur
prises, all along lines showing less
people than claimed, and Central
City's showing of s545 is a loss of
some 500 on its showing of two or
three years ago. The population of
Greenville was not announced, but
is about 1000 it is thought, which
is a gain of something over so per
cent. Central City gained almost
100 per cent. in the last decade.

Sentence Sermons.

The wisdom of Maurice Maeter-
linck The words we utter would
have no meaning, except for The
silence IN which they float.
Nothing happens to us that is not
of the same nature as ourselves
We over-emphasIze death. If
thirty years of felicity end in an &C
cidental death, all those thirty years
seem to us lost in the one somber
hour.
There is no inevitable tragedy.
The sole way to thwart destiny is to
do just the contrary to the evil 1t
would have us do.
1t often happens that the mIsfor-
tune of wise man resembles that
of any other man, but his good for
tune never is anything like the good
fortune of a fool.
There is vastly more unknown
country in the land of happiness
than in the land of sorrow.
There is nothing more just than
joy, nothing which takes on more
perfectly the form of our soul.
The angel of grief speaks all Ian
guages and knows how to use all
words, but the angel of joy never
opens her lips except to speak of
JOY which even a savage can under
stand.
Sorrow is old as the world, and
we'll understood; but JOY we might
say is still in its swaddling clothes.
Ordinarily it Is not JOY you lack,
but the knowledge of what JOY is.
| know that | am happier today
than yesterday, because have come
today to know that | have no more
need of good fortune events, of any
kind to deliver my soul, to give
poise to my thought, to clear the
atmosphere of my heart.
Z takes vastly more courage to be
happy than to be unhappy.
As we approach truth, it reccdes;
as We admire wonder at truth it ap-
proaches.
Our past depends entirely upon
our present, and changes perpetually
with il.
The past continually takes the
form of vases into which the thought
of today is pourd.

Catching Cold.


Coryza is an inflammation of the
mucus membrane lining the cavities
of the nasal passages, and may be
either of the acute or chronic var
ietY. In its acute form it is gener-
ally called ia cold in the head.D
The reason for this is that, given
certain conditions of the system
which tend to inhamed mucous
membrane, the acute attack can
very often be traced to exposure to
cold, drafts, or damp. II can, per-
haps, just as often be traced to heat,
dust and stuliness; but what ever
may be the final touch, it is certain
that the victim of the coryza was
IN a condition in which his powers
of resistance were reduced, or he
could not have rcaught cold.n
1t is of great Importance that
those people who spend many months
of the year travelling from one attack
of coryza to another should learn
just where to place the blame for
their trouble. 1t Is pity to get in
to the habit of blaming every open
door or window, or dreadiDg every
unexpected breath of air, because
this only leads to the course of life
most TO be avoided. Ii a person
finds himself with the Catching
cold" habit increasing winter by
winter, depend upon it there is some
thing wrong, and that something is
not fres5 air, because thai Is the
very thing be, Of all people, most
needs. In such a case the daily
habit should be carefully ovcrhauled.
Does the sufferer overeat, and
especially does he take too much
animal food and too little exercise?
This mistake is at the root of the
coryza habit in many cases. 1t is
simply the sign of rebellion on the
part of the overloaded system.
Often the trouble may be traced to
too much heavy clothing, to rooms
kept too warm, and to an atmosphere
dried up with steam heat and not
ventilation. People who sleep in
shut-up, stutfy bedrooms ought to
live in state of greatful surprise
if they do not have constant colds.
The change that can be produced
in the human constitution in this
respect by continuous course of
common sense applied to daily life
is almost like miracle-working. But
the course must be begun to-day and
kept up at least three hundred and
sixty five days in the year. The
cold-catcher must pay minute stten-
ton to the digestive process, and is
probably better off to eat meat not
more than once a day at the most.
His bedroom window must stay open
winter and summer-not two inches,
but all the way open. He must &C
custom himself to cold water bathing
This does not necessarily mean ice
water bathing. a bath thermom-
eter is cheap purchase, and SIXTY
FIVE degrees Is cold enough for most
persons.
Deep, slow breathing, with the
mouth closed, should be constantly
pTactised, and never more faithfully
than at the moment when a cold
seems to be in the act of getting NJ
self "caught."
