OF life more than twelve years greater than
il had at birth.
The exact proportion Of deaths varies
greatly in different countries and localities,
at different times and under different cir
cumstances Statistics are of value only
in showing average results. In Norway,
for example, the proportion dying under
five is stated by DIR. Farr TO
be- 2Oi5 per 1000 born; while In
England IL Is 33S per 900, and in Italy $50
per 1000. In fifty-one so-called "healthy
districts" OF England and Wales, accord
ing to the same authority, tho mortality
undor Ave is l75 per go born, while in the
Liverpool district, representing the most
unfavorable sanitary conditions, 1t Is 4oO
| per 600
In the different parts OF our own country
we find nearly as great a variety as on the
continent 81 Europe. Even in the same
latitude, the proportion varies greatly, ac-
cording as city or country districts are
con sidered In the state of Vermont,
which contains no large cities, and repre-
| sents essentially rural population, the
number of deaths under five, for the year
| 1880. was DIS per cent of the whole number
of deaths; in the state of Massachusetts,
| which embraces several large cities within
| its limits, for the twelve years ending in
| 1854, IL was "a. "a per cent; and in the city
| OF New York alone, for the seven years
ending 1913, IL was exactly 30 per cent OF
the entire mortality. Science

The Last Straw.

The four-yearold son OF summer

vited to Sunday school one afternoon.
TIE little fellow was growing impatient,
as the exercises were rather long, when
the clergyman interrupted them To bap-
tic an infant. This was moro than our
youngstcr bargained for, so slipping
unnoticed from his seat, just rs the
water was being poured on the baby :
head, he marched up the aisle,a tug
ging at the clergyman's robe until he
attracted his attention, said I'm tired.
and l. guess I'll go home. I'll come
some other day when you don't have 10
