realm has Increased by 1854, 900 square
miles, and within the same period 1885,
100000 have been added to the popu1a-

Since 1871 the population of the Uni

century England, Scotland and ireland
had a population Of 100000, and
France Of 26,O00,Oo0. yet to-day the
proportion Of population In both coun-
tries Is almost alike. Russia has In
creased her population by 60,OOO,0OO
since 1870, the result being that she has
now a total population OF 130OO0,0O
Germany had population Of 10000
600 at the beginning of this century;
now she has between 100000 and
G0.OO0,000. Of whom almost a quarter
is the result of the increase of births
over deaths. Germany, too. Is making
vast strides as a colonial power, and
her population in those distant possess
sions already amounts to big number.

Thanksgiving day was suggested by the

observed in Leyden. Holland, Oct. 3,

us to give thanks for the blessings of life.
