Curious Census Data The discussion
Of the eleventh census, which will le made
next Jrne, has brought out some curious ard
! teresting facts of the tenth census taken in
1880. Here are twoi 1t isa curious fact as
shown by the last census, and in fact by all
that while there are perhaps 500, 600 women
of the age Of 20 or 80 or 40, there will only
he about 10000 Of the age OF 80 or 40 or SO
The inference is irresistible; they do not like
TO acknowledge having turned the corner of a
decade. 1t would Of course be unreasonable
TO presume tina. once in every ten years there
is such an alarming decrease in the birth of
girl babies. Another difficulty which the
enumeratoIs will encounter is the collection of
statistics of what are called the defective
classes-those who are deaf, blind aud iliots
Ten years ago the question was put before the
head Of a family in Italy, care there any deaf,
dumb, idiots, OF blind in your house2n This
was often construed as offensive, and tended
TO increase the difficulty in ascertaining the
true facts. This year the enumerators have
all been instructed to ask at each house: as /
the speech all right is the hearing perfect. is
the mind correct, can everybody see?' The
census, too, instead of calling these classes
dependant defective and delinquent" will
'all them Especial" and will not class them
\ it'll criminals.

An ISLAND HEROINE

ARNOREL OF LYONEN>E. Dy Walter Eesant. II
m-tratcd. I2mo. PIP aod. Harper & Erothers.
Mr. Walter Bcsant has effected a curious COM
bination in Armorci of Lyoncssc. His heroine
Is charnirgly unsophisticdrcd girl who lives al
most alone in ore Of the Sclly Isles, where her
forcfathcrs have amasocd fortune by smuggling,
wrccking and other INDUSTRIES peculiar % the
good old times" The principal male character
is THE clcvcrcst man in London an adyenturer
who by the iudicious employment of ghosts" has
secured for himself high reputation as a painter
poct and prose writer He edits society paper of
his own nearly all the contributions hciug fur
nishcd hy ncccSsitous young authors and poets
whose work he appropriatcs, even signing his
name 10 it, He has entangled foolish young
painter into selling him all his work, which like
wise he puts forward as MS own. OF course the
idea of the ghost" business is derived from a
famous trial few years ago in London, wherein
Il fashionable sculptor was accused of winning
fame upon another mans work The Blt-Lawson
case however. was not so dcinitivc in lis exhibits
as the fictitious one for here the mpostor is
brought to grief, though he is finally enabled,
by h!s wfes adro:tncs,. 10 wriggle out Of his
s.u,barrassmrnts and even to pcrpctuatc his
chicoucIics.
All this is curious and novel; bu, it Jars
upon the reader a Htrlc straining probabil-
tiles. No doubt there are plenty Of men as un-
scrupulouS as Alec Fielding and as basely content
with uncarned or filchcd regulations but one can
hardly conceive Of such man silly enough 10 take
the tremendous risks Fielding is represented as de-
liberatcly facing. Armorcl herself IS delightful,
and her island and her quaint weird household ::
and the story Is as interesting and bright and full
OF color are ali Mr. BeSants book

The Tine Test
FOR Baking P070deTs:

The severe analytical tests to which the various oa'"s
powders have from time been placed have demonstrated
clearly to the public the relative merits OF the different DrauS
from scientific point of view The official Government nVes-
tipaton for instance have shown that the Royal BAKING
Powder gives off the largest amount of eavenng gas ana
therefore is the most economical for general use hy also
show the Royal be absolutely pure and wholesome ro'
these reasons the Royal recommended for Government
rscs and it now used in the War and Navy departments
But the crucial test of the kitchen is after all the
most satisfactory to the housekeeper baking
powder that never fails to make light sweet whole
some and palatabe bread biscuit cake ETC., IS the
one that will be selected by the practical house
keeper and received into her kitchen for continuous
use. This test the Royal Baking Powder has
stood for twentyiv years without failure, and
hence its reputation as the best baking powder
made has spread from house to house. until its use
has become as universal its merits are unrlvaled
