TWINS and trlplets are the little surprise pack
ages in life's lottery that do more than almost
anything else to test human good nature. No
body wants them and nobody expects them,
and, stranger STILL no reasonable man nor wo-
man wants to break the set when once they have
claimed hospitality and home. Usually at first
it is hard to accept such visitation with equanim
ity-it is difficult to say whether it is a joke
or misfortune. The recipients of such favors
generally become resigned it not actually little
elated, but those not so favored will look ask
ance and rejoice that it did not befall them. But
whether it is joke at the hands of nature, or II
visitation not to be desired, 1t still prevails more
or less, and it is not uninterestlng to know some
thing about the per cent. of such occurrences in
the aggregate of births From statistics kept by
British practitioners it is shown that in lGl ,042
cases of labor there were 2,477 cases of twins or
about one in 60, and SO cases of tripiets, or one
in 4,473. Among the French practitioners, in
36,57o cases of labor, 332 cases Of twins, or
Among German practitioners, in 251 1856 cuses
or 1abUr, 2.0oT uases OF twins, about one in

Taking the whole we have 449, 9SS cases of labor,
and 5,776 of twins, or one in 77aa, and n cases
of triplets, or one in 5,831. The arithmetical
progression between the number of twins and
the number OF tripets is very gratifying to n
man of limited means. AS it appears above, there
