THE CHANCES OF LIFE.


Among the interesting facts developed by The
recent CENSUS are, some in relation to The laws
that govern life and death They are based upon
returns from the State of Maryland and compar-
ison with previous ones. The calculation it's IN;
necessary 10 explain but the result is table from
which we gather The following illustratiop;r
I0.268 infants are born on the same day.
tnd enter upon life simultaneously. OF
these. 1913 never reach the anniversary Of
their birth 9,025I commence the second
year but the proportion Of deaths still con,
tinues so great that at the end of the third
only s, 1873, or about four-ffths Of the origi-
nal number, survive. But during the fourth
year the system seems to have acquired
more strength, and the number of deaths
rapidly decreases It goes on decreasing
until twenty.one, the commencement of ma
turity and the period of highest health. T.
l44 enter upon the activities and respon,.
@sibilities of life-mere than two-thirds Of the
original number Thirty five comes, the
meridian ofmanhood, 5000 have reached il
Twenty years more, and the ranks are thinn-,
ed Only 4,727 or less than half of those
who enter life fifty five years ago, are left
And now death comes more frequently.--
/ Every year the ratio of mortality steadily
increases aud at seventy there are not q
thousand survivors,. A scattered few live on
to the close Of the century, and at the age Oh
one hundred and six the drama is ended

A TEMPERANCE JOKE.

Joe Harris was whole soled, merry fellow,
and very fond of a glass. After living IN
New Orleans for many years, he came 70
the conclusion of visiting an old uncle, away
up in Massachusetts, whom be, had not seen
for many wears Now, there is difference
between New Orleans and Massachusetts,,
in regard to the use of ardent spirits, and
when Joe arrived there and found all the
people run mad, about temperance, he felt
bad, thinking, with the old song, that keep
ing the spirits up BY pouring the. spirits
down. was one Of the ways TO make time
pass, and began to fear, indeed, that he was
in a pickle. But on the morning after his
arrival, the old man and his sons being out
! at work, his aunt came to him and said
..Joe, YOU have been living in the South,
and. no doubt, arc in the habit Of taking 2
little something to drink, about eleven o.
| clock. Now I Keep some here for Faedlel1'at
DuyEoses. but let no one know 1t, as my
husband wants to set the. boys'a good ex-

Joe promised, and thinking he would
get no more that day, took, as he expressed
It. ia huster.p After that he walked out tc
the stable, and who should be meet but b;
uncle.

Joe signifed his readiness, and took an

he came to where the boys were maulin
