DIR. Greenwell's illustrated lecture
on the Prevention and Cure of Tuber-
culosis was one of the most practical
in the seasons course of popular lee
lures. The germ was described, its
effect on the lungs, the methods of
spreading from one person to another,
conditions in the home that favor its
presence and propagation: and habits
in the individual that make him an
easy prey to its ravagcs.
1t was shown to be u slow, epidemic
universal all over the country, carry
ing of more victims annually than
almost all the other epidemics and in
fictitious diseases combined. But its
action is SO subtle and SD gradual
that people do not take alarm: conse-
quently they are slow to adopt those
preventive measures Wy which yellow
fever, smallpox and other plaques are
quickly stamped out. BY means of
placards projected on the curtain, the
simple and most necessary rules of
health and diet were repeatedly given
so that the laws of prevention might
be well learned by all present. Medi-
cines could do little more than tone up
the system and increase its power of
resistance against the spread of the
disease, once it finds lodgment; all the
pretended imfallible cures" for con-
sumption were soon exposed and dis
credited: the use of alcohol never
really cures one case of consumption.
The secret for prevention las well as
for cure in the early stagesl was to be
ing food. Build up the forces of Ma
ture and she will conquer the deadly
tuberculosis bacilli.

COMMUNICATED. ]

! To the Editor of the Beacon
Sir For those who wish to know tho
attitude of the Methodist Episcopal
Church toward the liquor traffic queS-
ton. we insert the following excerpt
from the resolutions of the last gene
raj conference, the law-mrking body
of the Church:
I'VE declare our conviction that to-
tai abstinence from intoxicating beve-
RACES and narcotics Is the plain duty
Of all our people of every cline and
country.
The liquor traffic cannot he legal
lied without sim We condemn the
license policy. 1t is vicious in princi-
pie, utterly inconsistent, with the pnr
poses of enlightened government, and
in practice a protection To traffic
which is inherently criminal in its ma
ture
I'VE stand for the Spccdicst posi-
nle suppression of The beverages OF
liquor traffic. Under that divine law
of absolute right, which i the source
of all human law. the only proper at
titude of Civil Government toward
anything so harmful a the liquor
traffic is that of absolute prohibition:
and we recommend that our people
participate in every wise movement
for prohibition as step toward State
and National Prohibition.
We endorse the Anti-Saloon League
OF America as safe and effective
agency through which the membership
of the Methodist Episcopal Church
may cooperate with the members of the
other churches and temperance organi-
cations for united and vigorous action
against the saloon. and We call upon
our churches and pastors to continue
increasingly their cooperation in
carrying out this work.
We recognize that the Church a. an
Ecclesiastical body, may not properly
eo int" partisan politics nor assume
To control the franchise OF the citizen.
yet we maintain that the time ha,
come when the responsibility rests up.
on every Christian voter. not only Il
oppose the saloon as matter of all.
stracL principle. but to cast his ballo,
in the manner which will he most e Tee.
tive against the saloon and tend soon.
est to put the liquor traffic in tn,
course of ultimate extinction W,
record our deliberate judgment thai
no candidate for any Office which in
any way may have To do with IL,
liquor traffic has right Ia expect q,

Christian citizens 50 long aS he stand,

the crystallized public sentiment for
the overthrow of the liquor traffic.
Permit "a few sentences from ''Th,
Great Destroyer" 10y the Hon. Rich
mond T.. HobSon, of Alabama. tie
says: The most moderate. and tenn.
perate drinking is harmful: no matter
in what quantity taken. alcohol re-
mains a poison. Alcohol is killing
our people at the rate of nearly 3sp
men day every day in the year
over 10000 per year in the United
States and it possessions. Each Sa-
loon on the average kills three men
every year. Parents, by becoming
alcoholic, sacrifice thrce-fourih al
their children on the alter of drink. =
I'm the full light of the facts" Mr..
Hobson says, II cannot look upon
any saloon otherwise than an aSSa ASSN.

PO|NCARE NOT To
QUIT PRESIDENCY
But French President Is
FESTIVE Under Restraint
of. Position

Paris, June 2.-while President Poin-
care is said to have talked over with in
Innate friends the possibility of his re-
signing the presidency in order to re-
enter national politics. II is certain he has
decided not to do so for the present.
The considerations which have been in
his mind are It is understood. the sue
cesses of the extreme socialists and ex-
treme radicals in the recent parliament
tary elections. One OF the President $
convictions has been the absolute neees-
sity for France to have three years mil
itary service. That law passed through
the last Parliament by a considerable
majority under the Barthou ministry, but
the succeeding and present ministry. that
of NJ. CASTOR Boumargue, has supported
the three-year law irresolutey. The
country in the general elections leaned
rather against the three years law than
for 1t. This is indicated by the extreme
socialists having gained 10 seats. The
principal issue they put forward was OPP
position to three years army service.
President Poincares ability and his
tastes are In the direction of action and
party leadership. He does not find the
