German statistics show that Europe
has at present more than seven thous-

with 3,SSS centenarians; Roumania
and Servia follow with 1,O74 and $40,

Among the other nations comes Spain

Austria-Hungary 113, in England So,
in Russia 80. in Germany 76, in Nor
way %, in Sweden 10, in Belgium >,
and in Denmark 2. A scientist in
commenting upon these figures says
that statistics from America and Aus

the vaulting ambitions of parents often

from the contracting parties to an unholy
marriage for money, and that perhaps
love would mate more couples if the
young were left to their own selection Of
