Palace as a diamond outshines the
imitation.
The question Of cost has not been
left out Of account. Glass can be
made out OF almost anything
amenable to the influence of fire. The
stone glass to which reference has al
ready been made, is manufactured
mainly from what have hitherto been
regarded as waste substances. The
Stag heaps which disfgure our mining
and iron districts are all convertible
into glass, Evidently the days OF
bricks and states are numbered,
Perhaps it might be possible. in
connection with one of the many pro
Jected exhibitions to construct on q
modest but sufficient scale a dwelling
of the kind Mr.. Henrivaux describes.
People would then be able to expe,
rience the actual sensation of walking
along glass floors, or climbing q glass
staircase, Of being surrounded by
glass walls, of sitting on glass chairs
at glass tables, drinking tea out OF
glass cups. and stirring it with glass
teaspoons,
How far this could be accomplished
with due avoidance of monotony it is
hard to say. Certainly NJ. Henri.
vaux is enthusiastic enough to believe
in the fullest developments of his
idea.
1t is, perhaps, a fanciful idea, but
it must be confessed that, with Mr..
HenrivauX's guidance. an inspection

THE FRENCH CENSUS.
sion of a Great Nation.
Tells the Sad Tale or the Retroores

'S''S 'hS S@a aiS or the ketTogreS.
Our Paris correspondent sends MS
the preliminary results of the French
census as set forth by the dis
tinguished statistical expert, M. JAG
ques Bertillon. His figures must be
gloomy reading to patriotic French
men. Once more the numbering of the
people shows that the country is in A
stationary condition, if, indeed, 1t is
not declining Since 1896 the total
poulation has increased by $4,000
souls, but practically the whole of
augmentation is due to Paris and it's
suburbs, The Department of the Seine
shows an increase Of close on 100000,
but it is believed that much of this
accession is due to foreign immigra-
ton. Belgans, Swiss, Germans and
other aliens continue to flock into
Paris and so add to the number of its
inhabitants, though not to that of
French is at a standstill Alone among
the great nations of Europe, she shows
no advance. Everywhere else popula-
ton goes forward by leaps and bounds.
Fifty years ago France was the most
populous country in Europe next to
Russia. Now she is placed last but
one on the list of the great powers,
with Italy, which is still behind, rapid
ly gaining upon her. In the past half
century, while France has hardly
moved, Germany has added 21,000,0 900
70 nj
dom 100000, Austria-Hungary about
as many. The excess of births over
deaths annually is well over three
quarters of a million in Germany, over
half a million in Austria and $4,000 in
Great Britain. In France 1t is only
81 900. The new lives added to the ma
tion barely make up for those that
pass away. 1t is a painful fact for
Frenchmen, and for others besides
Frenchmen, Size, after all, is a most
and it is with no pleasure that we wit
ness the gradual decline in this re-
spect of a people that has done so
much for civilization, for art and for
literature, and has had so stirring and
adventurous career. France, in
deed, seems about to suffer the fate Of
Portugal, of Holland, of Venice, of
Denmark and Sweden, and other
states which at different periods of
European history have dropped into
teh background because they have
been overshadowed by more populous
rivals. In another century France
will stand toward the greater nations
of the world as Spain does today. Ger
many, Russia, the United States, Great
Britain and her colonies, even Austria
and Italy, will have left her completely
behind. If she increases at all, it may
be because the crowded millions Of
teeming little Belgium will pour across
her frontiers. It is strange phenome-
non, this stagnation of single people
amid the prodigious expansion and
multiplication of the other white ma
tions-London Telegraph.
