no better; again and again he de- clares that it is worse-and worse, too, in no refined meaning of the word, but in it's simplest and crudest signff- canoe. ''It is not too much to say" he declares near the end of the book, that our whole system of aceiety is rot ten from top to bottom, and the Social Environment as a whole, in relation to our possibilities and our claims, is the worst that the world has ever seen.' But it is difficult to combine the role of the flaming prophet with that of the scientific seeker after truth. If any one wishes to be reminded of the evils that exist in our society, and of our moral shortcomings in dealing with them, he can find them set forth powerfully in pr. Wa1Iace's pages; but, incredible as it may seem, there is hardly SO much as the pretence of an attempt at comparison with the past. It is almost as though one were to find out the dark places of a single city, and, not content with indignation one has proved that that city is the wickedest and most depraved ''the world has ever seen"
 The single place in which any seri- ous attempt at comparison is made is in the chapter entitled Indications of Increasing Moral Degradation How. inadequate the statistics cited by
 
 what he alleges we cannot here under take to show. But it is instructive to point out one cardinal defect This may be Indicated by taking that one of his three instances which he makes most pron1in ent-tfe figures are very irregular, but let it be granted that they show, in the past half century. an increase from 40 deaths annually per million inhabitants to 65 deaths per million. pr. Wallace himself admits that the showing is surprising, since the drinking habit has certainly di- mfnished;'' and he proceeds to account for 1t in various more or less ingenious ways. But there is one way that does not occur to him, and which yet may be the true explanation. Everybody knows that the can duration of life has been greatly increased during the half century. Is it not at least pos sfble-nay, is. it not, in the absence of evidence, highly probable-that these 25 additional drunkards per mill lion who die nowadays of ''aIcohol- ism used to be carried off by all sorts of diseases before they had had time to drink themselves to death? The eye, as Carlyle said, sees what 1t brings with it the power of seeing; and a passionate desire to find a foregone conclusion may deprive of all eff ciency, as an instrument for the as- certainment of the truth, even so fine a mind as that of Alfred Russel Wal lace-NeW York Evening Post

MIR. MoRGAN's RELIGION.

Some persons will contrast the pro fession of faith with which John Pier pont Morgan opens his will with some of the familiar hymns of his grand. father, whose name he has borne long a minister of the Hollis Street church. Other observers will see ir the two the same religious strain man ifesting itself in one case through the poetic mind and in the other through that of man of large affairs.
 Listen to these words of the elder: o Thou to whom in ancient time
 The Tyre of Hebrew bards was
 strung,
 Whom kings adored in songs sublime.
 And prophets praised with glowing
 tongue.

HOME HEALTH CLUB

Getting Discouraged: Part i. Its easy to get blue and discouraged when sick even though the sickness may be only a cold or a headache, but when more serious troubles arrive real sickness takes hold of you, then indeed it's hard to smile and be cheerful.
 I have known inyalids, however, ffopeless cases, who were always bright and appeared cheerful to others and thus became an inspiration to all who knew them or came under their influence. Some people realize that the cultivation of gloom and despon- deney Iessens their chances of regain ing health and so they refuse to look upon the dark side of the picture While they laugh at the sickness, they at the same time adopt every rational rraaa12s for restoring health. A sound and we4l taiad will do more for your body than all the drugs that can be read about, wflle g morbid fear and persistent belief iS hopeless disease will -counteract the besE efforts Of the most skillfu1 physician.
 One of the most powerful factors in the success or failure of physician is the confidence of his patient. If se fails to secure that confidence, he is handicapped from start to finish. Con- f1dence, cheerfulness and sensible treatment are the most potent factors for success in health as we'll as busi- ness.
 Let me tell you about the case of a dear mother who wrote to the Club from Oklahoma. She just would not give up and be sick, but finally the doctor was called and he said the case was so serious that he wanted the council of some other great doctor, well, that, naturally frightened the family and they insisted that she should go to a hospital where she could have the best of care. Now that part was all right. but when the great specialist finally reported on the case he used a. vast number of pro- found medical terms that sent cold chills down the spine of her husband, although they were absolutely mean ingless to him.

Dear Doctor: I am a man nearly 60 years of age, and am getting very stiff which condition has been coming on gradually for the last twenty years. At first T. noticed it only upon getting up after sitting in a chair for half an hour or more on a damp day. Now I am stiff all the time and it is grow ing worse though not much pain is connected with it. I have used all coholic drinks nearly all my life mod erately. not every day, but when I do drink I do not notice the stiffness so much. If you think alcoholic drinks bad for me, will stop their use. There is no fever or swelling in connection with it and I never had Inflammatory Rheumatism Could it be Chronic Rheumatism? have been told that the baths at Hot Springs, Arkansas would cure me- but I am poor man and cannot afford to go there. Can you kindly suggest something that will help me? w. W. c.
 The condition of stiffness of which as Chronic Muscular Rheumatism. There are other diseases, accompanied by varying degrees of stiffness and in voIving in one case the bones and joints and in another the nervous sys- tenn particularly, but the symtoms men toned by you. do not indicate the presence of either of these affections
 Chronic Rheumatism though very common is not yet a we'll derstood disease and there seem to be different varieties due to different causes. The lcommonest cause probably is the fail- ure of the kidneys, skin and other excretory organs, to entirely eliminate the waste matter formed in the body. To correct this condition the diet and general care of the body must be reg uIated according to the principles so frequently explained in. these lectures and so clearly set forth in the Home Health Club books. In short the food taken must be easily digested, and laxative in nature, at least four to six pints of water drunk daily, meat, eggs, cheese, etc, used very .sparingly, if at all fruits, green Vegetables, fats and oils taken in considerable quantities. Tea and coffee should be avoided and also in particular alcoholic liquors. The Hot Springs treatment, un- doubtedIy would be beneficial. but by taking frequent hot baths or vapor baths, drinking plenty of water and keeping the bowels active, much good can be derived at home from similar methods. Also be sure to have all defective teeth properly attended to.

Whenever I go anywhere and become little ex- cited, the sweat rolls down my face. feel ashamed of myself, but I can not help it. would be grateful if you could suggest anything to cure this trouble H. M.
 Your annoying complaint is simply a symptom of what is known as Neu- raethenia, though in very light form
 It is caused by a high degree of self consciousness and is closely allied to b1ushing. Your worrying about the trouble, simply aggravates it and you undoubtedly look forward to it and ex- pect it to occur, for instance, in the presence of others. You will have to learn to- ignore entirely this tendency, for such it practically amounts to and to do this you must seek the company As it really is of no consequence, you must stop worrying about it and it will gradually appear less often and ultimately disappear entirely, if you can only keep the idea of it out of the mind. study of the subject on Dynamic Magnetism contained in Vol 2 of the Home Health, Club books would be of the greatest assistance to you in learning to regain control over your mind and nerves. Medicine is of no use whatever in such conditions.
