OUR FUTURE POPULATION.

The average family a century ago
in this country consisted of 5.8 per-
sons. Now it consists of 46 per-
sons. Here is loss in a century OF
more than a person to a family. A
like loss a century hence-and il
seems to be coming-wiu cut the size
of the average American family down
to 3.4 persons, and that would be a
small family indeed
Higher costs of living and changes
IN social customs have much to dc
with the reduced birth rate. And it is
doubtful indeed whether immigration
is so helpful as some think it is in
maintaining the birth rate. More
males than females seek employment
here, and the custom of migrating
back and forth operates to keep WON
en- in the old countries.
The estimate of increase in the
population of this country cannot be
judged by past increases. The growth
of trusts will continue to add to the
cost OF living and the birth rate will
be decreased and after a few more
decades our ten-year increases will
approximate those of the countries
from which We came. We may not
stagnate as France is doing, but we
Will approximate that condition.

FRANCIS MARION CRAWFORD.

The death of F. Marion Crawford,
to many of his readers. AS writer
of fiction he had number of rare tai
ents. Novel reading is largely mat
ter of taste, and whatever else may be
said of Crawford, in some respects he
was remarkable writer. There were
few novelists in the last generation
who were so careful in the collection
and handling of materials. That was
because he was a sincere student a
habit which many of the modern nov
elists seem to have largely abandoned,
depending on the imaginative element
almost entirely to hold the readers in
terest. In the depletion of character
Crawford maintained a high standard
of excellence. This. was largely the
result of his wide travels and a keen
marks the man of education and
taste. He was one of the most dis
eliminating of the modern story writ
ers, and in not a~few of his works it
is easy to detect the conviction of the
author that the successful novel must
have an element of the superhuman
an idea which Bu1wer Lytton devel-
oped with great success to what is
known as the selfish reader, the man
who reads more for amusement and
excitement than for instruction or i'm
provement.
Francis Marion Crawford was a
splendidly educated man. He inherit
ed a taste for the artistic and the
beautiful from his father, who was a
sculptor of merit. The son possessed
an analytical mind which was fire.
quently suggested in his power of de-
scription. Some of his work in this
respect will compare favorably with
the best in the language. The French
academy conferred on him honors OF
distinction in recognition Of his mer-
its as a writer, which is in itself an
argument that he was a man of more
than ordinary talent in his chosen field
Of literary work.
Mr.. Crawford was voluminous
twenty-five. This is where he erred
The danger of writing too much is al
ways more or less serious with man
of Crawford's training, temperament
and tastes. There be some who do not
admire on the whole the works of the
man. They are justified in some re
spects in this attitude. But there car
be no doubt of Crawford's genius as
well as of his ability in certain kinds
| of literary. production, and especially
that which appeals to the dramatic ell
ement in the reader. "In the Palace o1
the ing is one of the best known OF
all the writer's works, and be it said
that it is a distinctly meritorious per-
formance in both conception and
treatment. The fact that his many ad-
verse critics could not succeed in ma
terially injuring his reputation is a
strong argument in favor of his tai
ents and attainments as a novelist
