EXTENDING BOUNDARIES.
Some of Our Larger Cities Have Am
 nexed Ground Far Into Adja- A cent Farm Lands.

According to 8 recently issued census bulletin, the real rank oficities is not al- ways indicated by the order in which they stand in the tables of population. Some great centers have a considerable part of their massed population lying outside the municipal boundaries. Bos. tonSis a good example; about 100000 people live in sight of the state house < dome, and less than 600,000 of them are governed by the Boston mayor. Other cities have annexed far into the farm lands of the adjacent country, says Youths Companion.
 It is customary to speak of the popula- ton of a state, Gin proportion to it's size" Such comparison is seldom made of cities, although it might not be us1interesting. Pittsburg, for example. has population of a third of million on 18,000 acres of ground; New York's population, little more than ten times as great, spreads over nearly 12 times as many acres.
 Chicago was long famous for It's an- nexation habit, but since 1890 New York has annexed much more territory than Chicago's total area New Orleans haa slightly larger area than Chicago. Each of them covers six times the area of Baltimore.
 Washington, which occupies the Mary land part of the ten miles square set aside for national capital, is fair- sized city as area goes, for this genera ton. It may seem small century hence, although it looked abundantly ample for all the purposes of urban development when laid out. N
 In the case of cities, as well as of other corporations, consolidation Is plainly one of the tendencies of the times. More than one-third of those in the United States have added to their territory by annexation since 1890. Townships and counties are occasionally subdivided, by reason of local interests, but the cities seem to be steadily pushing their boun- daries outward. There are some eco- homie reasons for this. but the reason In many cases has been the desire of their inhabitants to make a "good show ing"

MOST POPULAR NUMBERS.
Seven and Thirteen Are Fixed Upon in the Minds of the Greater
 Number of Men.

"Ask man to pick out some num- Der between one and ten, and you can tell him nine times out of ten what number he has selected. though his se- lection is made mentally" said a man who, according to the New Orleans Times-Democrat, is fond of the old things. "and when you come to think of it, the task of naming the correct number is not . difficult one. In ths course of an hour the other day asked ten men to think of a certain number-any number between one and ten-and would tell them what num- bsr they had fixed their mind on. In nine cases out of ten was correct missing 1t only once. The minds oS nine of the persons selected the num- Der seven. and one of them selected nine. It is not difficult to understand why the mind should run to the num- ber seven. Even in the case of tho man who fixed his mind en the num- ber nine. he told me whom 1t was all over that his mind had first run to seven, but he quickly. changed to nine without knowing just why 1t was that he changed. Seven is the most prom inent figure between one and ten. It b the most popular number in the line, and is associated with more things than any other number. and 1t Is quite reasonable that the mind should light on seven. made another test the other day with five persons, asking each of them to write some number between one and ten, and give it to sixth per- son. When the slips had been handed to the sixth man I said: Seven is tho number on each of the sups.'
 "fCorrect," said the man to whom they had been handed, and the five men were a bit bewildered for the moment by the fact that they had all hit upon the same number, and that was able to tell what the number was It would be quite as easy to name a number between 10 and 20, though I have made no tests along this hne.,, I dare say that 13 would be the first number to flash in the mind, simply because it is the most talked of, and the only number between 10 and 20 that has the widest association. So you can tell there is nc trick about it., and it doesn't require any knowledge of the occult philosophies."

Longevity of Birds.

Small singing birds live from eight to eighteen years. Ravens have lived for almost 100 years in captivity. and par rots longer than that. Fowls live 10 to 20 years. The wild goose lives up- ward of 100 years, and swans are said to have attained the age of 300. The long life of birds has been interpreted as compensation for the great mortality of their

Ba by's Eyelashes.

Some mothers clip the baby's eye lashes to make them grow long. This may be all right for the baby, but after maturity has been reached 1t is perhaps betetr to rub little pure ointment or plain vaseline into the lashes rather than to clip the ends.-Medical Talk.
