serves thanks. \ narrowing dispatch
was sent from Il western town telling
how a young girl had been buried alive,
every n %supposing hertz be dead. DR..
Dulles took the trouble to write to re-
sponsible people in the town named, and
learned that there was not a word of
truth in the story. More recently an
other similar story va sent from Spring
field, o., and the doctor Investigated
that also. 1t proved to be a lie like the
other. The probabilities are that every
such story would prove to be equally de-
void of the fact if it was Investigated.
And the same might be said of the stories
about snakes in peoples stomachs.-New

Misleading Statistics.

Too implicit a trust should not be
placed in extraordinarily low death
rates, says a London statistician. 1t is
frequently stated that the death rate
Of some particular place is but eight,
ten OF twelve per thousand inhabitants.
A moments consideration will show that
such figures are fallacious, for a death
rate of ten per thousand means either
that every child born reaches the age OF
100, or that the average age Of all who
die is 100. 1t is certain that there is nc
community in which every child that
comes into the world will pass safely
through the many dangers that beset
childhood. and therefore a death rate OF
ten per thousand must mean hat every
adult who dies is considerably over 100
years of age.-New York Telegram.
