CHRISTIAN SCIENCE

"Soul" is the subject of the Les
son-Sermon on Sunday in all
branches of the Mother Church,
The First Church of Christ, Scien-
tist, in Boston, Massachusetts. The
Golden Text is from the Psalms:
my soul thirsteth for God, for
the living God: when shall I come
and appear before God?"
Among the Bible selections in the
Lesson-Sermon are these passages
from Matthew: "And when Jesus
departed thence, two blind men
followed him, crying, and saying
Thou son of David, have mercy on
US. And when he was come into the
house, the blind men came to him:
and Jesus saith unto them, Believe
ye that am able to do this? They
said unto him, Yea, Lord. Then
touched he their eyes, saying, Ac-
cording to your faith be it unto you
And their eyes were opened: q.
AS they went out, behold, they
brought to him a dumb man pos
sessed with a devil. And when the
devil was cast out, the dumb
spake: :"

REPORTS REVEAL
1900 MORE BIRTHS
THAN DEATHE
State Department Of Health Re-
ports 13,43S Births And
11,7O5 Deaths In State

The semi-annual report prepared by
the Bureau of Vital Statistics of the
State Department of Health shows
that there were over 1,700 more births
than deaths reported in the State dur
ing the first six months of this year.
There were 13,438 births reported and
11,7O5 deaths, in comparison with
1858 births and 1854 deaths dur
ing the first six months of 1886.
The distribution for the six months
in 1887 was as follows: Births: Balti-
more City, 5,947; the Counties, 7,491.
Deaths: 6,O59 in Baltimore City and
5,646 in the Counties. Considered in
relation to population, there were 13
deaths which were offset by Is births
in each thousand of the total popula-
ton.
More than half of the deaths-6,-
334-or 81 per cent of the total num-
Der recorded were due to what are
known as the degenerative diseases of
middle life and old age. Heart di-
sease led the group with 2,765 deaths;
nephritis came next with 1858 deaths;
cancer was third with 1,O96 deaths.
There were 979 deaths from cerebral
hemorrhage and 226 from diabetes.
The pneumonias and tuberculosis
were responsible for 2,163 deaths
pneumonia for 1,427 and tuberculosis
for 736-or 18 per cent Of the total.
One death in every sixteen-6 per
cent of the total-was due to acct
dents of some sort. Motor vehicle ac-
cidents were responsible for 243
deaths. Nearly twice as many-478
were due to injuries incurred in
some other way. Deaths from the
causes mentioned above-the degenra-
tive diseases, the pneumonias, tuber-
culosis, and accidents-constituted ov-
er three fourths of the deaths from
all causes and at all ages in the State.
The semi-annual record of the Bu-
reau of Communicable Diseases shows
that 39,523 cases of notifiable diseases
were reported to the Department dur
ing the first six months of 1897, 25,-
1874 from Baltimore City and 14,129
from the Counties, in comparison with
28,563 for the first half of 1886 when
17,349 cases were reported from Bal
timore City and 11,214 from the Coun-
ties. The increase in the current year
was due largely to increases in meas
les of which 1909 cases were report
ed from the State within the past six
months, in comparison with 6,373 cases
during the corresponding period of
1886, and to increases in whooping
cough and chickenpox.
The venereal diseases syphilis with
5,631 cases and gonorrhea, with 1856
cases influenza, with 1924, the pneu-
monia with 2,426 cases and tubercu-
losis, with 1869 cases, were charged
with one third of the sickness from
notifiable diseases reported during the
first half of the current year. The
