LONGEVITY OF HEBREWS.

some Remarkable Faets Co.csrn,.s
Jews Long Livss.
Probably few persons outside sta
tistical circles are aware Of the fact
that the Jews are considerably longer
lived than any other civilized race.
On 100000 Hebrews born ON the same
day there will be sos males and 49,
3ls females. At the end Of the nrst
year the 100000 Jewish infants will
have established In q most remarkable
way their superiority in point Of vi.
tality. for only s.osl will have died. as
compared with 1l,ls2 in the English
experience and 16.70S Americans.
Striking - this difference is It will be
found to b practically maintained
throughout the later stages Of life. At
the end Of hve years only 1884 Jew
ish children out Of the 100000 will
have died. while out of . similar num-
ber OF English children 24.s7s will
have Joined the great majority. and

lish. and at the age of 65 the mortality
returns will stand At 37.442 and 66.1l0
respectively. But the full force Of the
comparison is hardly seen until the
point OF extreme old age is reached.
At IS years no fewer than 25,l35 Of our
100000 Jews will be still living. while
the survivors Of the English band will
be q meager 1856. Besides the curious
reversal of the usual proportion Of
males and females. there Is another
unique feature In the Jewish statistics
The general experience is that the av-
erage duration Of life IL higher with
the female than with the male. The
opposite Is the case with the Jews
or the 25.135 Jewish survivors at the
age Of SIS there will be 1925 men and
only s.s10 women-a percentage Of
64.60 males and $40 females. The
English experience shows that at that
age $3.50 per cent Of the survivals will
be females and 1910 males.

Portable Electric Lamp.

A new portable electric safety lamp Is
finding Its way into many coal-mining dis
tricts. where 1t Is accepted as the best
form of lamp that has yet appeared for
certain needs OF the miner. II can be
carried on a belt or In the pocket, a dry
power. with Il white enameled pHrabolic
reflector. which is connected to the bat
terry by flexible cord. II gives II radia-
tion OF light so strong that by II ordinary
print can be read 100 feet of. The lamp.
with Its reflector. can be attached to the
hat, or any part OF the clothing. having Il
stickpin for that purpose. The operation
OF the light is so simple that no special
knowledge on the part of the operator Is
required. The outfit gives "a brilliant light
FOR about twenty hours, at n cost OF three
cents an hour. A great advantage of this
lamp Is that II gives very much more
light than the ordinary safety lamp. II
