difference of 35,639. In 1904 the O-

in 1906 it rose to 1,170,537, only to
fall rapidly as mentioned in 1907.
CAUSE OF THE DECREASE.
This decrease, of course, is due
to the fact -that fewer couples ven-
ture to embark upon matrimony
nowadays. In thirty years the pro-
portion of bachelors per 1,000 has
increased from 384 to 411, and the
fact that every year 'there is an in-
creased desire on the part of men
to avoid marriage is of national sig-
nificance, when it is mentioned that
roughly speaking, there are 1,200,-
000 more, females than males in the
ether side of tho Mersey, however,
amongst boys and girls attending
eohools at Liverpool, the average
height is 3 feet 0% inches, and the
average weight 3 stone 85 pounds,
Tho height of a Bournville boy of
eleven years of age averages 4 feet
9 inobes, that of , a l3irptinghum
slum boy of same age being 4 feet
2 inches, the respective weights be,
Mg 4 stone 13 pounds, and 3 stone
11 pounds. The cheat measurement
of the Bournville boy, too, it might
be mentioned, is three inches great-
er than that of iris little slum bro-
titer in the Midland capital.
Such illustrations could be multi-
plied, but these two are quite surf

FLOCK TO THE TOWNS,
resulting every day in more over-
cre.wding, it' behooves the country
to !tit upon some measures whereby
the flood of people can be housed
under conditions which will produce
the best results for the nation.
There is another reason for the
deterioration of national physique
which readers may .or may not re-
gard as vital. In view of ,the fact,
however, that it is put forward by
that eminent physioian, Sir Victor
Horsley, it is certainly entitled to
serious thought and. consideration.
And it cannot be denied that the
figures lie produces are very strik-
ing At a recent lecture at Cardiff
Sir Victor stated that he held that
the poverty of the people was due
to the parasitic growth of the drink
traffic. "Poor people," he said,
"who spend their money in drink
had nothing left with which to sup -
Isere their children, whose physique
it .had been proved, was greatly
inferior to that of children whose
patents did not spend their money
in drink. The expenditure of the
country on drink had leapt from
£110,000,000 in 1899 -to between
£140,000.000 and £150,000,000 in
1907."
And Sir Victor gave it as his
opinion that the failure of the nation
physically was due to spending not
enough on grain, etc., and too
much on liquor—"to not spending
enough on food, and an. enormous
amount on poisonous drink." Ile
further mentioned that although
to build 10,000 new houses the treas-
ury would have to produce only an
extra £2,000 to provide, for a small
margin of interest on rates expend
ed, it was difficult to raise that
suns, although nearly 2150,000,000
per annum was being spent 013
drink.
A deplorable feature of this
growth in the drink traffic was re-
cently pointed out by the Dean of
Worcester, who
remarked that
while menreark were becoming more
temperate, women were becoming
more intemperate, and that awful
fact caused them to fear for the fu-
ture of the nation.
Well might thoughtful men cry
out, "Wake up, John Bull! Build
your nation on the people, not on
armaments." .

NO PRE11MATURE BURIAL.
The London Lancet Says It is Un-
known.
It is possible that an examina-
tion of the probability of premature
burial in the light of certain facts
nay be of'consolation to the less
prejudiced of those who dread its
occurrence. In all the thousands
of. postmortem examinations which
lave been performed throughout'
the civilized world during g the last:
fliy years has thele been u single
nstance of the supposed corpse un-
der examination showing signs of
ifte such as would infallibly appear

ed'? We venture to say that if.
his had occurred the world would
have heard of it. We would point
lit, moreover:, that the bodies up -
which postmortem examinations
re performed are in no sense se-
eded, but include those of persons
of both sexes and of all ages who
ave died from all sorts of natural
nrl violent deaths and a,t widely
arying intervals of time.

ANCIENT COST OF LIVING
HOW IT WAS IN THE DAYS O1'
GAY KING HAL.
Beef Sold at Otto Cent a Poured
But Wages Were 12 Cents
a Day.
Let's take a look at the cost of
living for our English ancestors
several hundred years ago, says the
New York Press. We can get the
prices, because one of Henry
VIII.'s parliaments fixed them by
statute, raising them on the whole
so that the people were discontent-
ed. Beef and pork were a halfpen-
ny (one cent) a pound, button three
farthings (a cent and a half). Be-
fore the enactment fat oxen could
be had for 26 shillings (a little more
than 96), a fat sheep or calf for 82
cents. London butchers sold two
and a half and three pounds of
beef for two cents. The best pig
would fetch only eight cents in a
country market, ,but a goose was
worth as much. The price of a good
capon was from six to eight cents,.
of a hen four cents, of a chicken
t:.') cents. Strong beer cost two
ceuts a gallon, table beer less than
a cent. Best French and German
wines were 16 -cents a gallon. Good
red and white wines were sold for
eight cents a gallon, with penalties
for poor stuff or short measure.
LABORERS' WAGES.
Of course, money was scarce.
Skilled labor (by statute) received
12 cents a day for one half of the
year, 10 for the other. For the cor-
responding ng pcrieds
commo
u labor
received eight and six cents. In the
harvest months, though, special al-
lowances were made to laborers.
Mowers, for example, were paid 10
cents a day. Thus a skilled labor-
er's average day wage (11 omits)
would buy 11 pounds of beef and
pork, or pretty nearly a pig and a
half, or nearly three liens, or near-
ly six chickens, or more than five
gallons of strong beer, or more than
11 gallons of table beer. About
halt of it would buy for the table
thee pounds of beef, a chicken and
a gallon of beer.

earners under gay King Hal could

parishes there were reserved, for
the laborer, as shown in Froude,
"large ranges of common and of

his fuel to him gratis ; where pigs
might range and ducks and geese;:
where, if he could afford a cow, lr

essential to the prosperity of th
people that when more and near
land was being acquired by big hol
dem Parliament enacted in Eliza
bath's reign that no cottage should
be built for laborers without at
least four acres of land going witl
it for their use.
When Henry VII. found that the
beef trusts and egg trusts and
poultry trusts of his day were get-
ting control of the 'market through
acquiring a monopoly of the lands
and restricting their use he and
Parliament attacked the monopolies
with a law enacting that no person
should have or keep on lands not
his own inheritance more than 2,-
000 sheep; no person shall occupy
more than two farms," etc.
The language of this statute was
not unlike Mr. Roosevelt's in speak-
ing of undesirable citizens :
"Whereas divers and dry persons
have daily studied, practiced
and invented ways and means hew
they plight accumulate and gather
together in a few hands great mul-
titudes of farms and great plenty
of cattle . . . have raised and en-
hanced tate price of all manner of

hens, chickens, eggs and such other
commodities, to starve the poor and
induce them to steal their food."
Harrison records that by 1576
farms which in the beginning of the
century had rented for 24 a year
had been raised to 210, 250 and
even 2100 a year.
cal court, where he was sentenced
to penal servitude for life, says the
Japan Advertiser.
Since April last year, during the
public trial of the accused, he has
nos uttered a single word. This at-
e •tit:ude led the judge and the public
e )•resecutur to cnuelude that he
feigned madness as a last resort,
tr, hoping to get released. He was
e medically examined. by Dr. Kure
- and Dr. Miyake, and in this exam-
- ination Dr. Miyake adopted a sin-
gular method.
There is a belief that the blood
1 of a venomous snake is soluble with
that of an ordinary Blau, but not
with that of e, mad -man. The doe -
ter applied this principle to the
examination of the suspected luna-
tic. and sure enough the. blood of
a venomous snake did not dissolve
in the blood of the accused. Thus
the doctor concluded that lie was
really orad.
The other doctor also gave evi-
dence about the lunacy of the de-
fendant. The judge ordered that
the trial should be postponed until
the accused was recovered from his
abnormal condition.
WAR ON RATS IN YOKOHAMA.
Encouraging the Caee and Meim-
tenance of Cats.
"This is the cat that ate the rat,"
is a phrase familiar to all, and it
has a special siguilicauce in Yoko-
hama, Japan.
Early last year a census of the
cafe in Yokohama was taken, and
it was found that there were 7,000
but that they were not increasing 1
'with norinal rapidity. The reason

hitters in tun many eases :found a,
This seemed
regrettable, when
grave. it
is remembered that the extermina-
tion of the rat is a sanitary ideal
and that pussy wages ceaseless war
on these infection carrying rodents.
The. municipality, therefore, offered
a mash payment to each family prov-
ing the birth and maintenance of a
kitten of fifty sen Per kitten.
The scheme has worked well.
There are now in lokohama 13,000
eats. and 'the municipality has al-
ready paid net 1.075 yen to fend -
line preserving kittens, As for the
cause of rat extermination it is

to the. fact thus the eats have re-

it is to be hoped that this reading
of the stalistiva is a right one.
A 11001) BOYCOTT.
In 1536;• time of Edward 11.1., Par-
liament enacted a foot! beycott. No
man, noble or peasant, was allowed
to have more than two courses t a t
a meal or elsewhere, 'and "each
mess of two sorts of victuals at the
utmost, be it flesh or fish, with the
COmmoo -sorts of pottage, without
sauce or any other sort of victuals.
Anyone, however, could substitute
a sauce for a mess, but it must not.
have in it more than two seas of
fish or flesh.

Tender Peace Offering Instead of
Manly Apology After Rude-
ness to Wife.
Many a Husband when he has
done something to hurt his wife's
feelings offers en apology in tho
shape of a plaster. It is not the
kind to be bought at the drug
store, to be sure. It usually takes.
the form .of a box of bonbons, a
bunch' of violets or a ticket to soma
play. But it is a, plaster, never-
theless.
BIIINGS HOME PLASTER.,..-.;;.
A man doesn't like a scene. Nei,
trier does he like to Humiliate him-
self, or so it seems to him, So,
instead of frankly and generously
admitting his fault and the two
really entering into a closer and
richer understanding of each other
thereby, he brings home a plaster
with the thought that this will fix
natters up, and no more will bo
said about it.
But such an apology hurts the
thinking woman keenly. To be of-
fered a bunch of violets or a box
of candy as a sufficient requital for
a wound to her feelings cuts deeply.
it means -to her that her husband is
either superfoial himself and incap-
able of deep feeling, or that he •
looks upon her simply as a ch114
whc can be diverted from a hurt by
a toy. She craves an appreciation -
and understanding of her' true na-
ture; she asks for bread and she
receives a stone.
WOULD MAKE APOLOGY.
She knows her husband would
not offer a man friend a cigar i£hei •
had done him wrong and let it go
at that, He would snake a manly
apology. Their spirits would meet
00 a common groundof understand-
ing and appreciation.' She wants'
this same comprehension of herself,
this sa,me loving aaknowled ment
from spirit to spirit, which only can
heal. A box of bonbons is an in-
sult to such a feeling, it is a plas•
-
ter she loathes.
The truest and most permanent,.,,;
happiness after a quarrel can be
secured only by this heart and soul
communion and understanding.
Only by acknowledging the fault
that has brought about the dis-
agreement, and uprooting and dig-
ging it out, can two build a per-
manent foundation for mutual hap-
piness. It will not be humiliating
to a man to do this unless his be
the small nature. The big, gener-
ous man would wish to make the
true apology as would the woman_9f,
deep feeling or deep thinking' de-
sire it.
Such a woman doesn't want pias-
ters. Unfortunately, sho has often
to accept them with what grace she
can and to summon a, smile to her
face to hide the hurt in her heart.
