Men in large cities either do not marry
at all or wait until late in life. This is
the reason why people in small towns
marry young: Two people commence 60
ing together. Within a month the COS
sips begin commenting on what a nice
couple they are and predicting that they
will marry. Things drift along this way
until the gossips become impatient, and
then they begin abusing the man and say
that he is just fooling the girl and will
cast her aside. The girl hears Of this,
tells her lover and suggests that they
marry. The man gets mad at the gossips
and marries the girl. Marriages are not
made in heaven. They are made by the
gossips in small town. Not one man in
ten wants to marry. The average man is
in love with his liberty, independence and
lack of responsibility, so if the girls want
to marry they may consider the gossips
their faithful allies.-Early Qa.) News.

She is a very little girl. only 5 years
old, but in the short period of her few
years she has enjoyed large experience
of life with dolls of all kinds and descrip-
tons who in the course of their exist
ence under her loving but not always
kind administrations have undergone
many vicissitudes. So the little 5-year-
old, when there came a real live baby
into the house, felt herself to be some
thing of connoisseur in children. When
it was put into her arms. this real live
baby, she regarded it with a critical air.
Isn't that nice bahy?" cried the
nurse, with the joyous pride with which
a nurse always regards a new baby, in
which she feels that she has a proprieta-
~ interest.

Solid or Hollow?

Schoolboys will look you in the eye
and say that the earth is a solid mass
with a molten interior and a solid crust.
Scientists are not so confident. Most of
them think it is as the boy says, but very
few rest with that statement. or late
the theory that the earth is hollow and
consists of a crust, say, a thousand miles
thick is gaining ground. The hollow
earth can be constructed from the La
Place nebular hypothesis more reasona-
bly, than can the solid earth, some say,
and the wonder is that it was not thought
ont first. The hollow earth also furnishes
the best explanations for tides, earth
quakes and volcanoes. But as men have
gone into the earth but G,000 feet they
really know nothing about il.

ATse For the Thumb.

In the notebook Of the late Bishop Fra
ser of Manchester there is a story of a
former young curate Of the English vii
lage of Stoke which shows the value of a
little common sense in deciding a knotty
point. The curate, being exceedingly
anxious at all times to do things in the
order of the liturgy, once insisted when
marrying couple on the ring being put
on the fourth finger. The bride rebelled
and finally said:
Il would rather die than be married on
my little finger"
For an instant the curate wavered;
then he said, but the rubric says So"
Matters were at a standstill-the bride
fearful, the groom uneasy. the curate de-
termined-when the parish clerk stepped
in and said:
I'm these cases, sir, the thoomb counts

Insects md Prehistoric Forests

1t is not unlikely that some of the curl
Gus alterations in the distribution of for
est trees which biologists have recog-
nized may have been due to the develop
ment in former ages Of the gypsy moth
or other like destructive species of insect.
Thus in the early miocene tertiary Eu-
rope was tenanted by a host of species
closely akin to those that now form our
admirable American broad leaved for
ests. The magnolias, the gums and the
tulip trees were then as well developed
in Europe rs they are in this country.
Suddenly all these species disappeared
from the old world. There is no reason
to believe that the change was due to
an alteration in climate. There are
many evidences indeed that such was not
the case. 1t is a very reasonable con-
lecture that that alteration was brought
about by the invasion of an insect enc
my which may have been the ancestor
OF the gypsy moth.-Professor n. S. Sha-

RaE Dolls.

A rag doll industry that grew out of
nm effort to help a church fair some
six years ago is carried on by two
young women in Brooklyn. Many wo-
men are employed, and the dolls are
now found in all parts of this country.
The cutting is all done by machine,
while most Of the sewing is by hand
One woman earns good income by
painting the faces, for which the finest
quality of white muslin is employed.
Another makes all the dresses. Pink
covered pads are sewed to the face be-
fore the outer cover is put on to give
the well rounded contour. Cotton is
used exclusively for stuff1ng the dolls.

THE CENSUS TAKING.

Washington, June 1.-The princi-
pal work of taking the general census
was begun in earnest today, and will
be completed within a month. The
census records OF this country are
the most complete Of any nation.
The first census was taken in 1870,
and was very unsatisfactory. The
census is taken under a special pro-
vision of the constitution. There
was national outcry of diSapproval
in 1890, but in 1910, however, the
census was satisfactory and there has
been little dissatisfaction since. You
are required to give your name, age,
nationality, wealth, occupation, and
tell if you are married or single, or
whether you have any chronic deseaSe
whether your property is mortgaged
and to whom, and other apparently
impertinent questions, the answers
to which are however, not to 60 be-
pond the "census DOCTOR" Cotton
and live stock and other statistics
will bc collected by experts. In Alas
ka the enumeratorS will use dog teams
and the work will not be completed
until October, notwithstanding it was
commenced some time ago. The cost
of the census in western and SOUTH
Alaska will be $50, 600.
