MatrimOny and Longevity.

The ancient minstrel Joke as to why
married men live longer than bachelors.
and the reply that II only seems longer,
was conceived in spirit of fun, but II is
now scientifically asserted that matri-
mony is conducive TO longevity. A GER
tain learned professor has calculated
that the mortality among bachelors
from the age Of 80 TO as years is "a per
cent, while among married men OF the
same age 1t ISIS per cent For a bach
elors who attain the age of 10 years there
are rs married men who reach the same
age. The difference is still more strik-
ing In persons Of advanced age. At 50
years there remain but % bachelors for
as married men. AT 20. II bachelors for
q married men. and at so. three bach
elors for nine married men.

Another Cause Of Mountain Sickness

AAAONANA ONa'~ "a ~-@So1e-AAA sAAAANhns
II has generally been assumed tina,
the difficulty In respiration experienced
by aeronauts and mountain climbers
was due to the diminished supply OF oXy-
gen at great heights, and to counterfeit
this effect various devices have been
employed to supply the needed oxygen.
Recent experiments by Prof. Mosso, OF
Turin, indicate that the diminished sup
ply OF carbon dioxid also plays part in
the phenomena Of difficult respiration
on high mountains. Prof. Mosso found
that a mixture OF oxygen with 20 per
cent of carbon dioxld, which caused gid
diness and vomiting when inhaled al

a sense OF pleasure on the summit Of
