Plans for tuberculosis Day.

Sermons on the prevention of con
sumption will be preached in thou
sands of churches on April 2S, which
the National Association for the Study
and Prevention of tuberculosis has
set aside as tuberculosis day. Last
year out of 100000 churches in the
United States, over $4,000 observed
tuberculosis day, and millions of
churchgoers were told about this dis
ease from the pulpit. This year will
be the third observation of Tubercu-
losis day. Plans are being made to
have the gospel of health preached
more widely than ever before. The
movement will be pushed through the
600 anti-tuberculosis associations al
lied with the national association and
through the boards of health, women S
clubs and other organizations in hun
dreds of cities and towns throughout
the country. Through these various
bodies the churches will be reached
and interested in the tuberculosis cam
paign.

Subject for the Minister

According to reports gathered by
the National Association for the Study
and Prevention of tuberculosis, prac
tically 10 per cent. of all deaths In
church congregations are caused by
tuberculosis. In a study OF $4,000
communicates of 725 churches In
which there were 1000 deaths in 1910
the death rate among these church
members was found to be 2.24 fol
every thousand communicates. This
Is higher than the rate for the regis
tration area of the United States
which was leo in 1910.
while these statistics" says the
national association, ARE not com
parable from the point of view of ae
curacy with those of the bureau OF
census, sufficient credence may be
given to them to indicate that one Of
the most serious problems the or
binary church has to consider is thai
OF the devastation of its membership
by tuberculosis. Every minister in the
United States should give this sub
jeet some attention during the weel
preceding or that following April %

LAWYER CURED OF ECZEMA

while attending school at Lebanon,
Ohio. In 1882, became afflicted with
boils, which lasted for about two
years. when the affection assumed the
form of an eczema on my face. the
lower part Of my face being inf1amed
most of the time. There would be
water-blisters rise up and open. and
wherever the water would touch 1t
would burn, and cause another one to
rise. After the blister would open,
the place would scab over, and would
burn and itch so as to be almost I'M
bearable at times. In this way the
sores would spread from one place to
another, back and forth over the
whole Of my upper lip and chin. and
at times the whole lower part of my
face would bs a solid sore. This con-
dition continued for four or five years,
without getting any better, and IN fact
got worse all the time, SO much so
that my wife became alarmed lest 1t
prove fatal

EARNING AN HONEST QUARTER
Great Painter, unrecosnized, Accept
ed Gratuity and Turned Good
Stroke of Business.

Winslow Homer was a great painter
who had the unusual good fortune to
have his merit appreciated early in
life. But no one ever presumed less
on wide reputation. Affectation was
a weakness from which his sense of
humor saved him.
In his biography, lately written by
Mr.. w. H. Downs, is printed the story
of a New York gentleman of wealth
and artistic tastes who made the jour
ney to Scarboro, Maine, where Homer
has his studio, to make the artist S
acquaintance.
On his arrival he found the studio
door locked; the owner was nowhere
to be seen. He wandered about the
cliffs for a while, until he met a man
in rough old suit of clothes, rubber
boots, aud a battered felt hat, who
carried a fish-pole. He accosted the
fisherman thus:
II say my man, if you can tell me
where | can find Winslow Homer,
have a quarter for you
where's your quarter" said the
fisherman.
He handed it over, and was astound
ed to hear the quizzical Yankee fisher
man say, II am Winslow Homer"
The sequel of this unusual introduc
ton was that Homer took his new ac
quaintance back to the studio, enter
tanned him, and before he left sold
] him picture.

Newspaper Is the Medium.

THE importance of this whole ques-

growing on the manufacturer. He
sees his competitor or some man in
another line turning the trick Of pub
licity and he sit up and thinks. He is
gradually realizing that localized,
erystalized publicity in the home is
what pays best and that he can only
