The American Navy.

There is little doubt that the American
ship is much better built than the foreign
vessel. This may be rightly attributed to
the fact that the United States Sovernme. t
is very rigid in its requirements. All con-
tracts must be lived up to, and that the
builder may he encouraged in his work pre-
miums are paid where the official test dc
velops greater horsepower and more speed,
or where the requirements of the contract
have been more than met. The govern
ment viii not accept vessel not up to the
specifications. Builders know This and are
accordingly prepared for it.
As an illustration in point take the case
of the NesIviUs. The contract called for
$500 horsepower. and she would have to de
velop a speed OF 90 knots. In the official
trial this vessel actually developed 4,4i9
horsepower and attained speed of 81 64-1oo
knots from a measured 4-mile course, of
course as result earning for her builder a
large premium. The case of the Blake,
English built, whose contract called for
10000 horsepower, lily compares with this
showing. The best efforts of her engineers
and builders could only bring out little
over 10000, and under this tremendous
strain her boilers went to pieces. The same
statement is true, although in worse de-
gree, of the failure of her sister ship, the
Northumberland A. G. Feather in Blue
and GRAY.

1t Will be seen from the table that tie.
best results are obtained from n marriage
when the father is from 80 to 40 years of age
and when the mother is from so to IS years
old-that is to say, when both parties to the
marriage are in the prime OF life. If, how
ever, the mother be of the prescribed age
and the father slightly under 80 years, the
result is nearly the same.
The most important deduction which can
be made from these statistics is that men
between the ages 40 and 40 cannot with
safety to their offspring contract marriages
with women under 20, the rate of mortality
in this case being no less than 27.SS per
cent This deduction is of exceptional i'm
portance because of the marked decrease in
marriages of that nature at the present
time.
Marriages when the man is between 40
and so years old and the woman between 90
and 80 years old, which are also of frequent
occurrence, are likewise shown to be detri-
mental to the issue.
Lastly, it is proved that it is unwise for a
man who has passed the age OF so to marry
a young woman, or for a woman who is
more than 35 years old to marry a man
under 80.
In general it may be said that marriages
when the contracting parties are both
Young or when there is a difference of more
than Is years between the contracting
parties, are likely to prove dangerous to the
healthy propagation of the human race.
These statistics Herr korosi has of
course calculated from local observations.
Investigation proves, however. that they
apply with equal force to other countries
and ATTITUDES of the globe. In northern
climates they apply indeed with greater
force.
In regard to the average age of marriage
in the different countries statistics show
that in England it is for men 27.7, for wo-
men 255 years; in Scotland for men 2S.6, for
women 257; in Ireland for men 1913, for wo-
men 25 9; in France for men &c. 2, for women
in Prussia for men 292 for women &c, and
in Russia for men 25.2, and for women q. 05.
4 A comparison Of these ages shows Herr
Korosi's deductions to be reasonable
