Physicians In all of the eastern states will be asked by the National Association for the Study and Pre vention of Tuberculosis to stop send ing consumptives in the last stages of tuberculosis and without suflletent funds to the southwestern part of the United States in search of health. While It is Impossible to tell accu rately how many consumptives there are at present living lu the stateß of Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, south ern California, and western Texas, It l is probable that no les than ten per Cent of the 6,000,000 people In this territory have tuberculosis themselves, or have come to the west because some member of their family have had it. Every ye#r, the health authorities estimate, not lesß than 10,000 consump tives, hopelessly diseased, come west to die. For these cases, the climate of this section of the country can do nothing, and they are compelled to die in strange surroundings and thousands of miles from home and friends The National Association points out fur ther that from 50 to 60 per cent, of these advanced cases are too poor to provide the proper necessaries of life, and they are either starved to death, or compelled to accept the meager charity which this part of the country affords. A FOOD CONVERT Good Pood the True Road to Health. The pernicious habit some persons still have of relying on nauseous drugs to relieve stomach trouble keeps up the patent medicine business and helps keep up the army of dyspeptics. Indigestion—dyspepsia ls caused by what Is put into the stomach in th© way of Improper food, the kind that so taxes the strength of the digestive organs they are actually crippled. When this state Is reached, to resort to tonics Is like whipping a tired horse with a big load. Every addi tional efTort he makes under the lnsh diminishes his power to move the load. Try helping the stomach by leaving off heavy, greasy. Indigestible food and take on Grape-N'utß—light, easily digested, full of strength for.nerves and brain, In every grain of it. There's no waste of time nor energy when Grape-Nuts is the food. "I am an enthusiastic user of Grape- Nuts and consider it an Ideal food." writes a Maine man: "I had nervous dyspepsia and was all run down and my food seemed to do me but little good. From reading an advertisement I tried Grape-Nuts food, and, after a few weeks' steady nse of it, felt greatly improved. "Am much stronger, not nervous now, and can do more work without feeling so tired, and am better every way. "I relish Grape-Nuts best with cream •nd use four heaping teaspoonfula as ,the cereal part of a meal. lam sure there are thousands of persons with stomach trouble who would be bene fited by using Grape-Nuts."

LESSON TEXT—Matt. 11:10-30. GOLDEN TEXT—"Come unto me all 7« I that labor and are heavy laden, and I | will glvo you reat."—Matt. 11:28. The paragraph mark separating | verses 27 and 28 should rightfully be removed for that portion is but a con tinuation and a contrast with what haa gone before. As we see from Luke's account, Jesus has sent out j the seventy who return boasting of i what had been accomplished In Jesus' name, only to receive his reproof that j they are not so much to rejoice in that as that their names were written ' "in heaven." Jesus had made bis appeal to Judea only to be rejected; he has (lone a , marvelous work in Galilee only to be ! rejected there also, and thus it leads !to his appeal to the Individual. Jesus | knew that every problem of the | church, financial or otherwise, every | problem of the body politic, is In Its | final analysis one of the condition of the Individual heart. We have before us a twofold divi sion of this lesson: I. Those Who Reject. One can j scarce reconcile the speaker of this j first section with him who spoke the J last words, but is any denunciation more awful than that of outraged love? There Is no contradiction here for his Invitation Is extended to the very people whom he has denounced. Chorazln and Bethsalda, laden with sin, are urged to break off their yoke of bondage, be reconciled with him. become yoked with him whose burden Is light. Judgment Inevitable. These cities had their day of oppor tunity. In like manner we notice that the measure of the Judgment Is the measure of opportunity. The fate of Tyre and Sodom wns awful, but more terrible is to bo the fate, in the day I of Judgment, of Chorazln and Beth salda, because they sinned against the greater light. The possible exaltation of Capernaum as shown by the ques tion asked In verse 23. Again we need to note that Judg ment is Inevitable. It Is the lot and portion of us nil. Jesus created a j wonderful opportunity for those cities I and In a like manner has created one ! for us ar Individuals of the city, what Swill be our accounting In the Judg | ment? We as citizens are being lllu j mlnated by a wonderful revelation of I truth and righteousness. Shall New j York, Chicago and other large cen | ters became as ancient Capernaum or Babylon, Nineveh and Tyre? | II Those Who Come to Jesus, j Coming now to the second section of our lesson, one can feel the lender j pathos of the voice of Jesus as he J turns from the whole to the Individ j uals who comprise the whole and j cries—"Hither to me." Not alone I those who nre burdened by ceremon | lalism or guilt but a more wonderful scope than that, "All who labor." Ills | Invitation Is. however, limited, for It Is to the laboring, thus excluding the i wilfully Idle, whether they be Idle ma terially or spiritually. Offers a Life. Jesus knew the rest of harmonious i relation to the Father, the rest of j service, and so the cllmnx of his In vitation Is the test of experience, v. | 30, "For my yoke Is easy and my bur den Is light." Notice that our labor j Is to be fruitful, "heavy laden," but I the Joy of service far outweighs any j thought of Its becoming a duty and i therefore onerous. A yoke implies n , being attached to a load and with au j other. How may we know If his j words be true? There Is but one con dition, "Come." Jesus meant Just what and all that word Implies. The babe sitting upon the knee of its nurse knows what Its mother means when j she calls "Come," and so Jesus ex ] tends his arms to sorrowful, laden humanity as well as to ceremonially laden Israel and says "Come." Not to a church or to some religious lead er, but to Jesus himself* The Invlta j tlon Is very personal both as to th i one who shall come, and the one t whom we nre to come, i There 1b In this lesson a luminous suggestion of Jesus' method of deal- J lng with the Ills of our great cities, j He does not propose a lot of nega ! tlons, but offers a life, an energizing i power that shall enable a company of , his belleverß to change these condl | tlons of 111. Some one has called at ; tention to Jesus' attitude towards the j Roman empire. Not one word of specific rebuke nor denunciation, yet j in approximately three hundred years j there was a Christian emperor upon that throne. These words of Jesus thrill with music. They have been a solace throughout the ages. *They have brought into his kingdom countless thousands. Jesus here assumes, as he always did, that the woes of the Impenitent and the joys at the saved are condi tioned upon our attitude towards him. Let us be careful not to slip the yoke and not to be unequally yoked with unbelievers. We are called to a part nership, a community of interest and to an agreement with him whose "yoke is easy and whose burden is light" LAND OF THE LOtiQ LEAF PINE The Latest News of "General Intareat That Haa Been Collactad From Many Towna and Counties. i - Winston-Salem. —The county school board decided to employ a supervisor j Df industrial training to the colored ; I rural achools to teach the pupils and !
