GOLDEN GATE CITY LEADS.
centage OF sutcides-Chic9go
Ranks Third

The number of people who volun-
tarily shuff1ed off this mortal coil in
American and other cities during last
year has been investigated by some
deliver in statistics and the following
figures indicate the results: San Fran
cisco leads with the largest ratio, 39.l
per 100000 of population. Next comes
on other Pacific coast city, Los Angeles,
with ratio of 1913. The reader has
naturally been looking for Chicago,
and that city does, in fact, come next
with ratio Of $40, followed by the
neighboring city of Milwaukee, whose
ratio is 22.2. New Orleans was the
scene of the self-destruction of 21.S
persons per 100000 of population, and
Cincinnati followed close. with ,21.2:
New Haven is next with 900, and then
comes the borough of Manhattan with
900, though greater New York as
whole is well down the fist with ratio
Of only 1876. This is less than Roches-
ter, Indianapolis, Philadelphia. Pitts
burg. Baltimore, Boston. Detroit.
Omaha and louisville. besides all of
those specifically enumerated above.
AS to the foreign cities. Paris leads the
list with ratio of ~. followed by
Berlin SO, Vienna 2s and London %.
There were more suicides in Saxony
than in any other country. 81 per 10O.-
600. In Denmark the ratio was 25.s in
Austria 21.2, in France 1877. in the Ger
man empire 1913, and Sweden. Norway,
Belgium. Great Britain, Italy, the
United States and Spain followed in
the order given.
The table referring to American
cities is somewhat difficult to explain.
Why the city of the golden gate. and
California. with it's glorious climate.

should show the greatest number of
suicides seems mystery, unless the
presence of large Chinese population
explains it. The high suicide rate
of Chicago is, perhaps. accounted for
by the rush and struggle of that great
city and the large foreign element it
contains-a foreign element, more
over, which comes mainly from those
countries where suicide is most fire.
quent. The same is perhaps true of
Milwaukee and of Cincinnati. The high
rate at New Orleans may possibly be
attributed to it's relation to France
and the ideas and traditions brought
here from Paris, the suicide capital of
the world. But New York city casts
cloud over some of these explana-
lions. Here are the large foreign pop
| ulations, the stress and strain of liv-
ing and working, the poverty. the ex-
cltement. Yet Philadelphia, the
sleeping city of the humorous para
graphers. has higher ratio of sui
cldes than greater New York. And
how is it to be explained that New
Haven leads all the other New Eng
land cities in the number of suicides ?
st. Paul and Minneapolis lie side by
side, but in Minneapolis the ratio is
ia and in St. Paul it is. but 6.5. It
seems that the conclusions must be
that there is no method in suicide mad
ness and that the effort to reduce it to
rule is doomed to failure.

Help IN Trouble.

Happy Is the man who has made God
his refuge and strength. No real harm can
ever overtake him. lie has o refuge to
which he can fee in every hour OF tempta
ton or trial and sorrow, a refuge never Jail
ing No matter what the peril. or what
the grief, he flies to God and all is calm
and rest. God is sufficient for anything
that can arise. And our refuge is always
near At hand, q very present help In
trouble. The Israelite had often 10 flee a
long way to his city Of refuge but ours Is
always close at hand; in a moment we arc
there. Happy also is the man who can say,
"God is my strength" If He is indeed our
strength we shall win every battle that we
fight. Our enemies may be too strong for
us, but they are not too strong for Him,
there is nothing too hard for the Lord"
so there is nothing too hard for us, if He
is our strength. The trouble is that we
say that He is our strength while an the
time we are trusting ia our own strength.
If He is our refuge and strength, not only
in word and in tongue, but in deed and in
truth then we shah never fear under any
circumstances, not even though the earth
be removed, and though the mountains be
carried int the midst OF the sea.

DAMP BEDDING.

A great many housekeepers are care
less about airing bedding. No bed
that is not regularly aired is tit to
sleep in. Those who have frequently
experienced the hospitality" of ho-
tells know how often the sheets Of the
bed are damp When this is the case
the safest way is to take them off and
hang them on chairs before a fire or
register. 1t is not safe to have beds
made up in rooms that are not occu
pied. There is always some damp
ness, especially in winter, about rooms
that are not aired, and this settles
upon the bed and other objects in the
room. The best way is to keep a sim
gle sheet and Counterpart, with fancy
sham pillows, on the beds when not in
use. Before a roe. rs to be occupied,
air it by opening the windows and
turning on the heat, or light a fire in
the fireplace, If there is one. Wipe on
the furniture and put everything in or
der. Meantime, let the bed air, after
taking off the counterpart, sheet and
fancy pillow cases. Dry these, but put
them away for use when the room is
not occupied. Make the bed with
fresh sheets and blankets, and other
bed linen, which has been aired before
a fire for at least two hours after tax
ing it out Of the linen closet or where
ever the bedding is kept. There are
a great many people who do not know
that it is dangerous to take sheets and
pillow cases out of a drawer or off
/ shelf and use them without airing
hem. All muslin or linen gather
lampness when laid away.-New York
