II the present decline in the birth
rate should continue for century
and half there would be no more
births at that time. said Professor
Walter F. Wilcox, the Cornell statis-
tician in lecture recently. As no
one believes that mankind will be-
come immortal, however, no one be-
lieves that births will stop. He
warned against the volitional control
of the births by the better classes.
He said:
There has been an increase of
perhaps five hundred million In the
earth's population since 1850. This
increase was not due to an increased
birth rate, but rather to the decreas-
ed death rate, secured by the pro-
gress of science and of government
Under earlier conditions a famine,
pestilence or war killed many per-
sons and at the same time prevent
ed many births.
During the last half century
these reciprocal relations has given
Mlace to a decrease in both death
yates and birth rates. The decline
of the birth rate in the United States
has probably been as rapid as any
country of Europe, and II 1t should
continue unchecked for a century
and half at the end of that time
no births would take place.
This sharp decrease was neces-
sary in order to grip firmly and re-
tain the benefits secured by the de-
cline in the death rate. AS no one
believes that mankind will become
immortal and so births will not be
needed, so no one believes that
births will cease to occur within a
century and half
ut is not the decrease In the birth
rate that is disturbing, but rather
the fact that the decrease is greater
among the classes whose children
would probably inherit much social
worth and capacity for leadership.
Thus figures from Harvard college
indicate that each 100 graduates
produces in the next generation only
73 sons. The native American pop
ulation at least in New England and
New York loses more by death than
it gains by births.
"These changes are due mainly to
direct volitional control of the birth
rate, a phenomenon of the last half
century. 1t calls for an adjustment
of our ethical standards to the new
conditions and more social ap-

A TOWNS GROWTH.

Nine years ago, the Board of
Trade of Williamsport, Pa, began
to stretch out in "The Williams
port Way" and $140,000 was rails
ed which secured the location in
Williamsport of the largest and
finest dye works in the world, now
owned by the National Silk Dyeing
company, and employing 800 men.
To secure the removal from Syra-
cuse Of the Sweets Steel company
1t was necessary to raise $150,000.
Every dollar of that amount was
furnished by Williamsport's banks
of discount. This was done quick
ly, and the steel companys plant
is now in operation, employing 400
men. Ten members of the board
purchased a tract of 1870 acres of
land and placed it in the hands of
the board for manufacturing sites.
This enabled the board to offer in
whole or in part at actual cost for
the original purchasers expected
only their money returned with no
profit. In 1900 the members con-
tracted to provide s215,0OO to the
guaranty fund for use of the board.
This contract was renewed in 1905.
To-day the guaranty fund amounts
to nearly 100000 to be used for the
extension of local industries and to
loan to deserving manufacturers.
The members of the board furnish
ed the money for the Williamsport
centennial celebration in 1905. The
result of Williamsport's nine years
campaign, along these lines, are
significant. The percentages of in
crease follow: Population, twenty
nine per cent; freight revenues,
twenty-nine per cent; bank capital,
thirty-seven per cent; bank deposits,
-forty-six per cent; assessed valua-
tion, ffty-four per cent; freight ton
mage, sixty-one per cent; bank sur
plus and undivided profits, 112 per
cent; postal receipts. lat per cent.

BIG RELIGIOUS PARADE.
Column Nearly Two Miles Long

With Bands of 100 Singers.
Five thousand persons, composing
column nearly two miles in length,
with several brass bands and a white
robed chorus of 100 singers, Satur-
day night gave the village of Oxford
an exhibition of religious enthusiasm
never equalled in the Chenango
Valley.
The unusual spectacle was an incl
dent of the great revival which,
under the leadership of Evangelists
Davis and Mills, is sweeping over
the Chenango Valley. After a month
of energetic evangelizing in Sher-
burne, the center of the campaign
was moved to Oxford, and Saturday
night was selected for the demon
stration.
The people of the Chenango Val
ley villages, without regard to race,
creed or color, joined in the re-
ligious awakening with the result
that the people of Oxford saw one
of the biggest parades in it's history
and witnessed more enthusiasm than
any event in a generation has stirred
in that locality. .

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Nov. 23.-In
vain effort to save the life of his
little grandson, Congressman David
DeArmond of the Sixth Missouri dis
trict, perished in a fire that destroy
ed his home in Butler, Mo-, early to-
day.
His act of heroism became known
late this afternoon when his body
was found, his arms locked around
the blackened and burned body of the
little boy. He had caught up the six
year-old lad, David A. De Almond,
Jr., and rushed with him through
the flames that filled his room. He
fell with his unconscious burden and
both sank through the floor to death.

SLEEP sUPERsTITIoNs.


How to Awaken at ANY Hour You
May Designate.
Sleep is the best cure for waking
trouble. Hours for sleep:
Nature gives Ave,
Custom seven,
WEAKNESS takes nine,
LaZiness eleven.
If you wish to arise at a certain
hour, before going to bed make with
your right foot as many marks on the
floor as the hour on which you wish
to wake, then go to bed backward.
To insure happy dreams burn some
hazelnuts and do the ashes up in a
package, which you must place be-
meath your pillow. You will then
dream sweetly.
If you wish ever to marry, never
look under the bed. a.
If a person talks in his sleep, put
will tell you all his secrets.
The Hindoos say it is bad luck to
sleep with your head to the north,
but sleeping with your head to the
south promotes longevity.
1t Is considered by some nations
dangerous to sleep while thirsty. for
the soul leaves the body in search
Of water, and if the body awakened
too quickly the soul might not have
time to return to it, so the body
would die.
In Germany the nightmare Is be-
lieved to be a spectral being which
places itself upon the breast of the
sleeper, depriving him of the power
of utterance or motion.-Philadel-

INTEREST IN THE ONE RAIL.
1t May Revolutionize Railroad Build.
ing.

Great interest has been manifest
ed among railroad men during the
last few days in the monorail car
before the Royal Society of England
last week. Many believe that the
principle of the gyroscope thus
adopted to a full sized car for the
first time Is about to revolutionize
railroad construction.
Mr.. Brennan first demonstrated
the idea with small model before
the society in the spring of 1907.
Last week he exhibited, on the War
Office grounds near Chatham, a 22-
ton car, 40 feet long, 13 feet high
and 10 feet wide, mounted on a
single line of four wheels, without
other support than those wheels.
Two horoscopes were used, weighing
three-quarters of a ton each and
making three thousand revolutions
a minute in vacuum. A gasoline
engine furnished the power. The
gyroscope wheels are feet inches
in diameter and are placed in a cab
at the front of the car. A speed
of only seven miles an hour was at
tanned on trial.
1t was found that the big car was
even more successful than the mod
ell. 1t showed no tendency to leave
the track or to tip. Sudden shifting
of weights in no way endangered
the equilibrium. 1t is expected that
this type of car will do away with
the dangerous and uncomfortable
side thrust which leads to spread
ing rails and excessive Jolt and jar,
and limits the safe speed of the
ordinary two-rail train to about
seventy miles an hour. Moreover,
the power of the engine can be more
economically applied, and 1t is pre-
dicted that a safe speed of 150 miles
an hour can be attained.
The gyroscope employed is on the
same principle as the toy of that
name and OF the ordinary spinning
top. 1t lends stability to the sup
porting car through the fact that a
revolving wheel tends to remain in
one plane.

BY a unanimous opinion the Unit
ed States Circuit Court decides that
1t was illegal for the seven principal
stockholders of the Standard Oil
Company of New Jersey to acquire
controlling interests in nineteen
companies scattered through the
United States and engaging in some
feature of the oil business and merge
them all, so that their operations
could be controlled in way to pre-
vent competition and to monopolize
the products. There is wailing and
gnashing of teeth among the trust
interests, and already we have heard
,xwhat O disastrous effect the decision
will have on business enterprise. 1t
|eis evident that the trusts have for
gotten that so long as the human
race endures the natural laws of sup
ply and demand remain operative,
there will always be ample oppor-
tunity for business activity, but in
stead of millions of profits going into
the hands of a few, all who engage
in trade can do so with a reasonable
expectation of being permitted to
live and to receive fair returns and
the consumers enjoy the benefits of
unrestricted competition. 1t is gen.
orally understood that the beef trust,
as obnoxious as it is already, is en-
deavoring to obtain control of the
business of the Argentine Republic,
prevent the country from enjoying
the benefits of free hides and by
controlling the hide industry as well
as the meat market, gradually obtain
possession of shoe manufacturing
with other leather business. 1t is
easy to see how dangerous it would
be for a few to control such vast en-
terprises. Such a combination under
the decision just handed down would
be illegal on the grounds that the
possession or such power is preSump-
tive evidence that it would be exer-
cised, and yet were such gigantic
trust formed and declared illegal,
the same cry of discouraging busi-
ness venture would be heard. The
decision will have a wholesome eff
feet and there is no doubt. but. that
it will be sustained by the United
States Supreme Court for that court
has already passed on the principles
of law in the Northern Securities
merger. 1t all goes to show that
when Alton B. Parker declared five
years ago that the laws were already
adequate for the regulation and
control of the trusts, he was right
