figures for the year:
Forty-one thousand fewer bottles of

sold. 45o0 fewer bottles of liqueurs sold ;
1000 fewer gallons of beer sold: GIL 900

ALARMING INCREASE OF CHILD SUICIDE

T~ HE modern conditions of life have
been charged with many crimes.
but it is generally believed that
the suffering caused by these
conditions is limited 10 the adult class.
However, NJ Louis Proal in the Arch
ives d 'Anthropologie Criminelle OF Paris
says that children and young people
are likewise victims of present condi-
tons. and victims to the extent that
suicide among minors is on the rapid
increase. NJ Proal says that suicide
among children is mentioned by Mon
taigne, but that such suicides are more
frequent today than formerly Precoc-
lous in reference to crime. contemporary
youth is no less precocious in reference
to suicide and its pessimistic precocity
is more surprising than its criminal pre-
cocity- Juvenile suicides take place
at an age when despair should be un-
known at fourteen years. at twelve, at
ten, and even under; it is seen I'M rich
families as well as poor ones; in cities,
however. more than in the country"
NJ. Proal says that in France. in 1890
out of total of 2.752 suicides. twenty
were of children less than sixteen years.
of which sixteen were boys. and four
girls; 1s2 We're cases of minors be-
tween. sixteen and twenty-one years;
eighty being boys and ffty-two girls.
In 1Si9, out 3.5S3 suicides. twenty were
children under sixteen years and 10

A Rapid Increase.

Commencing with 1883 however. the
number of suicides rapidly increased. In
1863 out CT STA -ases. 81 we're those OF
children less than sixteen years. and 1853
those OF minors from sixteen TO twenty
one. In 1873 there We're g. 400 cases. with
oil under sixteen years. and 200 between
sixteen and tweaty-one. In 1889 S.1Sa
cases, with IS under sixteen and Ss2 be-
tween sixteen and twenty-one years.
And in 1895. ass cases. with S5 under
sixteen and A. between sixteen and
twenty-one. Thus in 1895 there were $50
suicides of minors. as against 152 in 1899.
In many instances the parents stated
that the death of the child was acci-
dental, and. therefore. the statistics OF
the~police department do not show the
real conditions. Apd many other cases
were concealed bySsarcnts or interested
persons
There are fewer suicides in the coun-
try than IN the city. In 1SsN for ex-
ample. there was not a single suicide OF
a child less than sixteen years of age in
many OF the French rural departments.
while in the great cities such cases were
frequent This is due TO the fact that
the country children are stronger, their
temperaments are better equilibrate6

In examining the cases of juvenile sui
eide. M. Proal finds many different
causes. First, jealousy may be a cause
of suicide, a fact which should teach
parents 20 be absolutely impartial in be-
slowing affection on their children:
anger may likewise be cause for sui
eide. and reprimands injudicionsly ad-
ministered may lead to disastrous re-
suits. Corporal punishment may work
havoc with the child. as also fear of
such. while lack of harmony between
husband and wife IN the control of the
child may make the latter stubborn,
capricious and even lead TO suicide. But
the chief cause of suicide is TO be found
in overwork in school and in excessive
application to studies.

1t will continue to be true as long
as humanity retains that innate Gus
sedness which dominates 1t.
Don't infer, however, that l con-
slider imperfections and attractions
to increase in corresponding ratio.
A little salt is necessary to make
your food palatable. but a very little
more will spoil it. A faultless wife
is likely to be insipid, and good,
healthy imperfeetions should rather
be cause for rejoicing than lament.
So, my boy, when you find one in
your dear little bride, don't have a
conniption fit, but make note of it,
and when you get an opportunity,
analyze it tenderly. They may keep
you pretty busy for a while, but
when you get them all classified
you will have that intimate acquain-
tance which is absolutely essential
to domestic happiness. A long while
ago somebody said, Man, know
thyselfi" and I would paraphrase
that. and, l believe, improve 1t, by
saying, Man, know thy wife!" It's
much more important. On the other
hand it is just as necessary that the
wife know the husband, but / don't

can see no reason why the return to
earth should cause an entire change
of relations. Some people seem to
think that the tender little attentions
which mark the period OF courtship
and that Immediately following the
wedding are incompatible with the
struggle for a living; that the kiss,
the caress. the little compliments,
are not only unnecessary but even
foolish If you desire happiness as
nearly absolute as possible here be-
low, don't make that mistake. Love
alone is not sufficient for woman.
She hungers for its outward and yisi-
Bile manifestation, and it is hunger
that can never be fully appeased. A
man can rest content in the conf
dence of his wife's affection and
doesn't worry if she neglects to ex-
press it in words or actions. But
she is of different fiber. She wants
to hear you say 'T love you" once
in a while. to feel your arm steal
around her and your lips pressed to
hers. She never grows weary of
these things and she never grows too
old to appreciate them Their ne
glect is the beginning of Indifference,
and indifference is loves deadliest
foe Without love marriage degen-
crates first to a mere convenience
and then to condition of bondage
in which iron chains take the place
of roses. chains which the divorce
courts are too often called upon to
sever. If you do not give your wife
frequent evidence OF your affection
you win have only yourself TO blame
if she turns to some one else for that
which her nature demands. No,
you cannot possibly attach too much
importance to these seemingly in
significant things They are the
very foundations of domestic hap
piness- You may provide a comfor-
table home and every material de-
sire of her heart; you may treat her
with courtesy and kindness; you
may give her high social position.
but if she loves you all these are as
nothing if unaccompanied by the
purely sentimental expressions of
your own affection for her. With
visible love she will live happily in
the humblest cottage.
