left bordering thereon are below grade, and
nuisances of accumulation of water are occa-
stoned because of this condition. There is no

although the nuisance might be temporarily

nit a trespass by injuring the property adioin-

From 20 to rs the chance is increased TO 50
per cent; from Is to 30 it diminlshes to / 8 per

% 40 the chances Of an unmarried woman sink
to 81 per cent; from 40 to IS still further d.
intuition IS seen, her chance being but II =
From IS to so the old maid 5 chance Of getting
a husband is but three-eighths Of per cent,
while from 90 to s. she is supposed to have
but one-quarter of per cent Of chance. It
should, however, be added that the table Of
average does not apply to widows. Accurate
sta,istieians, who would not be caught in
mistake for the world, affirm that widow
any age has at least &c spinster drawing pow-

widows chances at any age are therefore 70 to
