GAINING ON THE FAIR SEX
According to This Report Men Will
Soon Outnumber the
Women.

Frau Gnauck-Krehne is one of the
greatest German Authorities on the mod
ern feminist movement, and after mature
study and the collection of statistics she
has come to the conclusion that the
superiority of womel in SO many European
countries is fact which in the first place
is in no sense an eTl, and in the second
place is rapidly disappearing.
In another twent years, she believes,
the tide will begin % turn the other way
and the men will bein the majority even
in such countries IS England and Ger
many, where at thelpresent time women
immensely predomIate. Some OF her
statistics are most Interesting. In Lux
embonrg, for examph, in 1890 there were
LOOP women for every 1000 men. There
are now only 999. n Australia the pro-
portion has been reduced in the same time
from | .O44 to 1,O35, il Hungary from ,0l5
to OO9, in Switzerland from ,057 to l,035,
in Sweden from 1,065 to l,049, in Germany
from i.O4O to 1902, il England from ,O55
to l,047. She does lot believe that any
European nation except Russia will long
continue to increase fpldly in proportion.
England has begun tofollow the example
of France and Germany will certainly iol-
low England's footsteps.
In all advanced" European states the
birth rate is either becoming stationary,
or begins to show backward tendency.
