ogy in Denmark frel:t0r.c arcl.Uol
oey has been, thanks to Thomson, Wor-
saae, Muller, MaAsen alld oshers, care
fully studied il this northern country.
Perhaps nowhere else have finds been
more numerous. 1t is important to note
that in Denmark there is no paleolith-
ic, OF rough stone period. After the re-
treat Of the ice Of the glacial period,
man seems to have at once set to work.
Kitchen middens or rcfuce heaps abound.
Among the mammalian remains the
bones of the dog are common. Worsaae
estimates that these refuse heaps would
date back from 5000 to 2,0OO B. c..
Since they were formed there have been
important changes in the geography,
fauna and flora of Denmark.
The oysters Of the Baltic no longer ex-
list, and peats now take place Of the conf
erous forests. One highly entertaining
piece of work OF practical character has
been carried out III Denmark. On an es-
tate had been found a large quantity of
stone implements in excellent preserva-
ton. A nobleman OH whose grounds
these stone tools were discovered has had
a small wooden house built at Broholm,
in Funen, for the exhibition of these
relics of, say 1000 years ago. In erect
ing the house the carpenters used no
other tools than the old stone ones.

The Largest City.

Here are some of the latest and most
interesting figures about the largest
city il the world from the London
Register Gazette. The estimated pop
ulation of London in the middle of last
year was 4,349, 1855. The area is 121
square miles, equal to a square of elev-
en- miles to the side, within which theirs
were no less than 1923 miles of roads
made OF sanctioned at the end of last
year On an average So persons live
on each acre of ground within the
the boundaries, or about 81 $50 on each
square mile. In different parts of the
metropolis the density of population
shows remarkable contrasts. The par
ishes with the lowest density are Lewis
ham, Hampstead, Landsworth, and
Woolwich, all with less than 80 persons
per acre. The most densely populated
parishes are Holborn, with IT'S persons
to an acre st. Saviour's, Southwark,
with 1S1 ST. Georges in the East, with
1853, Shoreditch, with 191 and White
chapel, with 1856.
The marriages in London during 1894
numbered 36,902; the proportion of per-
sons married being II per 1000 of the
population, further decline from the
rates recorded in recent years. The
births registered were 100, 553, equal to
a proportion of 30.1 per 1000 of the
population, this being the lowest ever
recorded in London. The natural in
crease of the population during last
year, or the excess of births over
deaths, amounted to 53.514, and con-
siderably exceeded the estimated in
crease of population during the year,
which was 42,967. The deaths register
ed numbered 1899, being in the pro-
portion of II. per 1000 persons living.
This rate was considerably below tina
in any year on record, the nearest ap-
proach being 1874 in 1889. During the
four preceding years, owing principal
ly to the outbreaks of influenza, the
London death rate did not fall below
20.7 per 1000.

and teamsters, hostlers, livery stable
keepers, locomotive engineers, pilots,
sailors, blacksmiths, carpenters, pain
tiers and plumbers. The clock and
watch making industry is a calling to
which women are well adapted, and
there were nearly 5000 women engaged
in it in 1890, chiefly in the great watch
making factories. There are women
harness makers, iron and steel workers,
marble cutters, brick and stone masons
and paper hangers. They are represent
ed among the roofers and skaters, the
ship and boat builders and stove max
ers. In fact, women are represented
in all of the 220 callings enumerated in
the census classifications, except the
army and navy service, and of all the

conceives of God as infinitely just, in

of justice repels the idea of God who
has made a heaven and hell, as
taught by other religions. Judaism

nearer to God than other religions,

WOman's Greatest Charm.

am quite sure that men regard
''sweet simplicity" as the greatest
charm in women, and especially in
girls, writes Ethel Ingalls, in a delight
full little dissertation on "The Girl in
Society,"" in the July Ladies' Home
journal. This does not mean sim
plicity in the simpering sense, but an
absence of that affected air of boldness
and mannishness which has lately been
assumed by too many really lovable
girls Then, too, sincerity in express
sion is one of the characteristics that
charm men. To be sincere and candid
the girl in society need never be abrupt
nor self-assertive.
