The following figures, taken
from the° report of the Ontario
Registrar for 1888, just issued will
bo of'interest :--
13UtVls.—The births registered
in the whole Province in 1880
numbered 46,953, an increase of
1,049 over the number registered
in 1887, and were in the propor-
tion oft .8 to 1,000 persons liv-
ing. 'There were 24,354 male and
22,599 female births in 1888.
March as usual returned the high -
eat number of births,4,189, and
November the lowest. December
held the lowest place in 1887.
The births of twin children ap-
pear to be decreasing. In 1887
the number of' pairs registered
was 82 less than in 1886; in 1888
the number was 64 pairs less than
in 1887. No ease of triplets was
registered in 1887. In 1888 three
oases were reported, viz., onefrom
the county of Middlesex, one from
the united cuunties of Stormont,
Dundas and Glengarry, and ons
from the county of Welland.
There has been great disparity be
tween the number of illegitimate
bi rths registered in different years
as the following abstracts show :
In '83 there were 989, illegitimate births.
'84 " 644, a decrease of 345
'85 " " 021, " 23
'86 " " 061, an increase of 50
'87 " " 396, a.decrease of 275
' 8.1 " " 618, an increase of 222
No other cause can be assigned
for these sudden changes than
that a number of births were not
registered in certain years. No
accurate conclusions can therefore
be drawn from these irregular
data as to whether the births of
illegitimate children are on the
increase or decrease in this Pro-
MARaIA0Es—The marriages reg-
istered in I888 numbered 14,551 an
increase of 91 over 1887. The larg-
est number of persons married in
1888 gave as their religious per-
suasion when married that of
'ylcthediste, then follow in num-
erical order Presbyterians, Epis-
copalians and Ronan Catholics.
The Quakers returned the fewest
marriages—only 80 marriages
having been celebrated by them.
The returns also show that there
were less marriages in 1888 a-
mong the Methodists, Presbytei-
ians, Roman Catholics and Luth-
eran, and more amongst the Epis-
copalians, Baptists, Congregation-
alists, Evangelical Association and
Quakers. These increases and
decreases were not sufficiently
large to affect materially the per-
centage to the whole number of
marriages. As usual the largest
number of marriages took place
in the month of December, and in
the fourth quarter of the year ;
the smallest number occurred in
August, and in the third quarter.
During the year, 2.767 persons
were married "under 20 years of
age; of this number ,2,560 were
females and 207 males. There
were 81 persons married at 70
Tears 'and over' 29 bridegrooms
and 8 brides. Thefoldest brides -
groom -was 84 years, and the old-
est bride 72 years. The united
ages of the oldest couple married
were 148 years: their respective
ages were 78 and 70 years. The
greatest disparity between the
ages of any couple married was
that of a man 84 years old, who
took for his wife a girl seventeen
years old. Another bridegroom
was 73 years of age when married
and nis bride was 21 years of :•ge
Among the marriages of youthful
persons, the returns show that
nine girls were married at the
early .age of 143 -ears, and 25 al 15
years. No youths were married
at those juvenile ages although
2 were married at the age of 17
years, and 7 at 18 years. The un-
ited ages of the youngest couple
when harried were only 31 stars
the bridegroom) leing 17 years
and his bridefourteen year...
They were married in the e runty
of Norfull.

of deaths, 28,734: ratio to pop-
ulation, 11.0 per 1,000. The rate
in 1888 was a little lower than in
1887,owing to an allowance being
made for the increase in p)pula-
tion. The deaths of males in the
Province numbered 12,514 ; and
the females 11,220.

AN IMPORTANT -MATTER
Mn EDITOR.—It is a well known fact
that the majority of people are inclined
to look upon a cold in the head as a
matter of little importance—involving
at the most only a temporary incon-
venience. No more disastrous mistake
was ever made. 'the neglected cold in
the head is the source of the catarrhal
affections] with whish about seven•
tenths of the people of this country are
afflicted, and catarrh itself is too often
the preliminary stages of consumption
and death. The symptoms of catarrh
are manifold, but among them may be
mentioned, offensive breath ; dull, op-
pressiveheadache; offensive droppings
from the nostrils €xto the throat and
bronchial tubes; deafness or partial
deafness; constant hawking and spit-
ting ; weak and watery eyes; a haeking
cough and feelint of general debility ;
ringing in the Bard and frequent dizzi-
no°s. These are but a few of the more
general symptoms, and those who ex.
perience them should lose no time in
applying n remedy—delays are prover-
bially dangerous, and in the case of
this too prevalent disease may lead to
death. We offer Nasal Balm to the
public as a POSITTVF. PURE for cold in the
head and for catarrh in all its forms
and stages. Nasal Balm has been test-
ed in thousands of cases, and the testi-
monials in our possession prove that it
is all we claim for it. It hag cured
other sufferers—it will cure von. It is
easy to use, pleasant and agreeable and
does not require a douche, or any tor-
turing instrument to apply it Give it
a trial and be convinced of its groat ef-
ficacy. Sold by all dealers or sent post
free on receipt of price -50o for small
nr 51 for large size bottles, by address.

Several Americans have contracted
for large shipments of ice from Dufferin
lake for Buffalo, Boston and other cities
in the union. It is placed on board"
the cars at the Forks of the Credit.
The ice is both clear and pure, and
about fiteen inches in thickness. A
lugs number of men and teams are
employed at the work. The lake covers
an area of 25 acres, and from the de-
mand it would appear that all ice form-
ed upon it will be removod. Fearing
a break-up in the weather, they are
storing away hundreds of tons in the
mean time.
At Erie on Monday when the west-
bound N:okel Plate passenger reached
the high bridge over Walnut Creek,
near Swanton, the engineer found a
man in the middle of the bridge. To
reverse the engine on the bridge would
have imperilled the train and its one
hundred passengers. Although the poor
fellow stood wringing his hands in ag-
ony and looked pleadingly at the en-
gineer, the latter kept on and Bent the
man down 150 feet into eternity rather
than imperil the lives in his keeping.
The man was anknown.
CONSUMPTION CURED.
An old physican, retired from prao-
t:ce, having had placed in his hands by
an East India missionary the fornmla
of a simple vegetable remedy for the
speedy and permanentoure ofconsump-
tion. Bronchitis, Catarrh, Asthma and
all throat and Lung Affections, also a
positive and radical cure for Nervous
Debility and Nervous Complaints, after
having tested its wonderful curative
powers in thousands of oases, has felt
it his duty to make it known to his suf-
fering fellows. Actuated by this mot-
ive and a desire to relieve human suf-
fering, I will send free of charge, to all
who desire it, this receipt, in German,
French or English, with full directions
for preparing and using. Sent by mail
by addressing with stamp, naming this

The United States has paid over $2-
000,000,000 off the debt since the close
of the civil war, and now has little
more than 11,000,000,000 to wipe out.
Pins is a wonderful record. But for
the war the greater portion of the debt
would never have been contracted, and
but for the pensions paid to old soldiers
and widows the debt remaining could be
wiped out in au year or two and the
taxes very muoh reduced. It is a tact
worthy of comment that the 598,000,000
payable thin year in pensions to par-
ticipants in or sufferers- by the late war
is more than double what is now paid
out in a year for interest on the nation•
al debt.

Minnie Worley, aged 22, telephone
exchange operator at South Bend,lndi-
ana, and Frank Middleton aged 2.5, in
a position at Michigan City, became ac-
quainted over the wires during their
night watches. Finally Middleton pro-
posed in fun that they get married by
telephone, and Minnie consented. A
Michigan City justice was called in and
performed a legal ceremony, but with-
out the necessary State license. This
occurred last week and passed off as a
joke. Now eminent legal counsel pro-
nounced the marriage legal and binding,
and say Justice Dibble is liable to im•
prisonment for performing the cere-
mony without the necessary license.
The groom will go to South Bend to see
his bride, and divorce proceedings will
probably be instituted unless they agree
to live together.
