Principle of Life Is
Health and Strength.

You can't talk about the power
of God in your life one day and
whip around like the wind the next
day and talk something else. You
can't expect your diseases and your
troubles to vanish if you keep call
ing them up, and telling your
neighbors and your friends about
how you once demonstrated over
that thing, but 1t has come back on
you, and you wonder why it is that
you don't get along faster The
principle of Life is health and
strength. and it is healing Stick
to It. Don't allow any other thought
to come in; don't talk about any
thing else. People salt themselves
down in the old thought, like Lots
wife, by looking back and calling
up in thought and conversation the
sinful past. Once you have dem
onstrated over a thing, drop it right
out of your mind, as if it never had
existence. Sin and sickness never
were any part of your true life
Those unhealthy conditions, those
discords OF mind and body, were
nightmares If they had been true
we could not SO easily get rid OF
them; we could not wipe them out
with our words of Truth"
One can feel patient. with the
Old Thoughter, who has no lanowl-
edge and no belief in the mental
power to control conditions
But it is difficult to feel patient
with the teacher or the devotee Of
this religion who goes proclain1ing
1t from the house tops. and then
descends to the lower rooms to talk
of gloomy, sad and disagreeabls
things.
Not every one is strong enough
10 accept the Spiritual philosophy
in full, and do away utterly with
old methods of cure when ILL
But every one ought to be strong
enough to avoid talking of disease,
describing operations, dwelling on
sorrovful subjects and indulging in
gossip and tale bearing.

utter one word of protest. If some

A report dealing with the coal re-
the Dominion Department of Mines.
The estimates given are only based on
what Is known. In the western and
northern regions, which have been
little explored, there may be vast de-
posits OF which nothing whatever Ia
known at present. The officials OF the
department estimate that Of btu
minous coal there is in Canada 73h
billion tons, OF anthracite 46l MIL
lion tons; subbituminous and Ignite
over 100 billion tons. The quantity
of coal now annually mined in Canada
IL about IL million tons. With an es-
timated quantity OF unmixed good coal.
OF "a billion tons. II would require
6,l66 years to exhaust tho supply. II
the inferior grades were included. sup
ply would last for 14.575 years. OF
course the coal demands OF Canada
will keep on increasing. but It will be
a good many years before the quantity
Of Canadian coal mined will equal
present output OF the United States
mines. Their annual output is about
5o0.000.00O tons. Al that rate 1t
would take only 145 years to exhaust
the estimated Canadian supply OF
good coal and about $50 years to get
TO the end OF the total supply. And

up OF about four hundred thousand per
