BORN IN THIS COUNTRY.
Statement Of the Director of the Censu,
Regarding the Chinese.

The director of the census has prepared
statement explaining the discrepancy be-
tween the number of male and the number
of female American-born Chinese in the
United States. The returns of the twelfth
census show that of the 9O10 Chinese
claiming American nativity 6,657 were
males and 1858 females. The director ex-
presses the conviction that the preponder-
ance of males is due to the fact that many
male natives of China have fraudulently
secured admission as American born. The
conclusion is announced as follows:
THE results of the computation show that
of 6,657 Chinese males reported as born IN
the United States, probably 2231 were real
ly born here and 4,426 were cases of false
returns, and of 1883 Chinese females re-
ported as born in the United States, s2,23l
were really born here and 122 were cases of
false returns The true number of Chinese
immigrants In the United States was prob

QUEER ILLUSIONS.
Morbid Minds That Associate Names
and Numbers With COIors,

Morbid Minds That Associate Names
and Numbers With COIors,
Numerals have no colors to you and
to me-" said a psychologist. Three.
Tor instance, doesn't seem to us TO be
pink, and eight doesn't seem to us to
be brown, but there are certain slightly
diseased minds to which almost every
F2r9 in the language appears to have
color.
"T4e odd part Of this matter is that
when you study the minds that attrib-
ute colors to figures you find them al
most unanimous in attributing to each
figure a particular hue. Thus, they
VIII say that one is black, two is cream,
three is pale brown, four is red brown,
five is blue, six is tan, seven Is green.
and so on. Finding among the morbid
so uniform belief In the blackness of
one the blueness of five and the green
ness Of seven, you almost persuade
yourself that these figures actually
have colors.
Some morbid minds hold that names
have colors. A New Orleans glyptolo-
gist says that to him John is blue, At
lanta is steel gray, Peter is brown, and
so on.
Mankind harbors an incredible num-
Der Of illusions. Each one of us, per
haps, has an illusion of some SORT.
Mine is that if count on getting a
thing l desire I will be surely disap-
pointed. My wife's is that her brother
appears to her in dreams.
Il know a nervous, pallld woman
who attributes certain perfumes to GER
ain sounds. A soprano voice to her
s like lilies of the valley. A tenor
voice is like roses. A contralto voice is
ike heliotrope. A bass voice is like

SHORT TALKS.

A TERRIBLE lot of love is wasted on
cats, dogs and unmarried men.
So many people waste time! Do you
do it? Do you talk, and talk about
nothing?
How we all dislike the child that
has its own way and is impudent! All
Of us need a great deal Of training.
A good many people are like pie
plant-their good qualities are not
known because no one handles them
right.
When a wOman's daughter marries a
preacher she is more firmly convinced
than ever that her children have ad-
vantages she did not enjoy.
If a woman truly loves her husband,
when she is asked how he is she will
say, well. he does not complain, but
l do not think he is very well"
If you have a. Rttle hard sense it has
probably been beaten into you; very
few have it naturally. So that, after
all. adversely and criticism are useful. [

oOstlieat Atomn IN the world.

There are some people, no doubt, who
fancy that $4,000 an ounce is quite
enough to give for anything in the
world, and yet from all appearances
there is little doubt that this price will
come to be looked upon as a very mod
est one for radium. The action of the
Austrian government in restricting the
mining of pitchblende in Bohemia is
already having its effect, and the
mighty atoms become more valuable
every day. AS an instance of the man

small portion Of the food that has been

Should this custom be disregarded by
any one, that person would never be
