N1INGLING OF RACES.

The latest theory from the depart
ment of sociology at the University of
Chicago. that Americans would be inn
proved by an adlnixture or strain Of
Indian blood in their veins, may con-
tain some truth, though 1t quite ma
turally excites amazement among the
people.
The crossing of different rationale
ties of the same race has generally
been believed to produce children su-
iperior to the parents on either side
and the intermarrlage of close rela-
tives has been forbidden by law, in
most countries, on the ground that the
progeny of such unions is likely to be
below the standard--likely to exhibit
marks of degeneracy rather than to
show an Improvement over the parent
stock.
A former judge Of the supreme court
of Utah, a man of great natural acu-
men, as well as an experienced jurlst,
once remarked. that he found the
young people OF this western region
somewhat superior. physically and
mentally, to the average youth of other
places. He attributed this observed
superiority to that internlingling OF
common in communities composed, like
this one, of people from many parts OF
the earth. The fittest traits, he argued,
Of the parents on both sides, were
likely to be more pronounced in the
offspring; and so a superior race. on
natural hereditary principles might be
expected. he thought, from the inter
marriage of parents of different ma
tionalities ~
We ore inclined to believe that this
iningling OF different peoples of the
same race may be beneficial, in the
sense of producing offspring who may
inherit the more pronounced traits of
both lines OF ancestry. and SO be both
| better balanced and also possess a
! wider range of tastes and apttudes
| than those. who descend from one line
of nationality and, as it were, from
1 one strain of blood.
That such effect would be. from the
standpoint of physiology, one to be ex-
pected seems to be taken for granted
among biologists. Yet the psycholo-
gists will add that there must not
be mental and emotional tendencies
/ SO widely different between the par
ents as to produce discord In their
tastes, habits, and general views of the
conduct of life. These conflicting men,
tai tendencies would as likely be re-
feeted in the offspring to the disadvan-
tage OF the race as, the physical diff
ferenees in the parents might tend TO
the production of desirable balance or
symmetry Of physical powers.

FALSE TEETH.

Some idea of the general use OF
false teeth may be gathered from the
statement that 2O.00o,0o0 of them are
exported from America to England
every year. When we consider that
probably not more than half the In
habitants of Great Britain indulge in5
the luxury of false teeth, no matter
