Reflections Of a Bachelor.


Some people seem to get old Just be-
cause they haven't anything else TO do
It's queer that women have two arms
just like men, but not two less-Oniy
limbs.
It's a million times harder TO pretend to
love when you don't than to pretend not
to when YOU DO.
Maybe most of us won't have to work
in heaven, but it wont be heaven for the
women unless the dressm1kers ana MILL
ners are willing TO work
A woman 8 strongest weapon Of License
is the innocence which she possesses and
her keenesU weapon of attack the M
noCence which she pretends 20 possess.

WlgEiesworth's Accurate Census Gusss
of Our Present PopulatIon.

WigEiesworthis Aecursts Census Guess
of Our Present Population.
Edward Wigglesworth, Hollis pro-
fessor Of divinity at Cambridge" in q
little pamphlet published in the Dor
tentous year OF 1775 must have had a
correct idea Of the prosperity of this
country during the century just clos
ing, as he predicted that the popula-
ton Of the British American colo
MES" in 1900 would be 10000. 900. In
cluded in this estimate was Nova SEQ
tia. now the Dominion OF Canada.
which, with its last recorded census
result Of 100000 added to the IS .OOO.-
900 Of the United States. fulflls almost
to the letter the accuracy Of the Wig
ellsworth prophecy. And this some
what remarkable forecast was not bas-
ed upon any species Of guesswork, but
upon q well defined and clearly con-
structed mathematical theory, which,
reduced to plain words, can be best
described in the language Of its au-
thor: THE British Americans have
doubled their numbers in every period
OF twenty-five years from their first
plantation" Taking this statistical
fact as basis for his calculations, the
Harvard divinity professor constructed
a system Of reckoning the increase Of
country's population, which history
has shown to be as correct as his
method was simple. Assuming that
the 1775 population was $500. 900. Mr..
Wigglesworth estimated 5000 900 for
1900. 100000 for 1925, 10000. 900 for
1850. 100000 for 1875. and 10000, 900
for 1890; and the record Of the United
States census. since its initial taking
in 1870. shows substantially these fig
ures as follows: Census Of 1900. s.

general tendency to replace the old
buildings BY new and more costly
structures,as is being done In Arkansas
and Mississippi. Thus in Sacramento,
the capital Of California, the new build
ings and grounds represent a total ex-
penditure Of $1,000. 900. Austin, Tex,

100000 and Michigan has at Ian
