they are easily explained. In • friss*, in

These figures all point in one direction,
and all tell the same tale. Raropeans are
not Bath a marrying people now as they
were twenty years ago, and among , the
merrying peoples we are nearly' at ,the.botz
tom of the 'tree. The . Irish marriage rate
is in itself enough to account for much of jr
the misery and unrest' ,of Erin; and therins;
Scotelt,rate is. lower than that .of any no,
tion in Europe. Our marriage rate is new
lower than it has ever been since 189%.
