BABIES OF THE WORLD.
StstisticihR Makes Unique CaIcuha
ton of the Boys and Girls
Born Every Year.

1t has been computed that about
100000 babies are born into the
world each year, says Woman's Life.
h raxe of production is, therefore,
about 20 per minute, or more than u
for every beat of the clock.
With the one-a-second calculation
every reader is familiar, but it is not
everyone who stops to calculate what
this means when it ZONES to a years
supply 1t will, therefore, probably
startle a good many persons to find. on
the authority OF a well-known statisti-
clan, that could the infants of a wear
be ranged in a line in cradles, the era
dies would extend around the world.
The same writer looks at the matter
in a more picturesque light. He i'm
AGNES the babies being carried past a
given point in their mothers arms, one
by one, and the procession being kept
up night and day until the last hour
in the twelfth month had passed by.
A sufficiently liberal rate is allowed,
but even in going past at the rate OF
20 a minute, 1900 an hour during the
entire year, the reviewer at his post
would have seen only the sixth part Of
the i~nfantile host.
In other words, the babe that had to
be carried when the tramp began
would be able to walk W hen but a mere
fraction Of its comrades had reached
the reviewers post, and when the years
supply of babies was drawing to a
close there would be a rear guard, not
Of infants, but Of romping ~six-year-
old boys and girls.
