second to over-eating. The use

third in the list of causes. The
younger the individual that uses
the tobacco the greater the dam
age done. A penalty of at least
ten years imprisonment should be
exacted,” says Dr. Brady, “from
any oerson under th a age of twen
ty one found with tobacco in his
possession.”

Why People Go to Church.
Some people go to church forsooth
It was a habit formed in youth
Some go because they like to hear
The preacher rake their neighbors
dear
Some go to show their dress and
s'are
| At what the other people wear,
j Some go because they are afraid
| To not do so might injure trade
| Some go because they think it
squares
The week day shady sin affairs
Some go to take a quiet snooze
While sitting in the restful pews
Lulled by a soporific talk
i As gentle as a cradle’s rock.
Some go. they really do not know
Just why; they simply dress and
SO.
Some young men go because the
fair
Girls they like so well are there
And yet among the chaff we find
Much golden gram of human kind
Good Christian men and women
who
To holy things are ever true.
Bright flowers that spring from
sinful sod
Who really go to worship God
But oh, the millions on this ball
Of earth who never go at all.
