WOMEN OUTLINE MEN

The greater. longevity of women
than OF men is shown by recent
French insurance statistics, the ad-
vantage on the feminine sid being
almost one third
Thus the average age at death Of
feminine annuitants, on one comnany'S
books is 20, while for men it IS hare
ly so. Another COMPANY has several
centenarians, all women, or rs books.
These annuitants have already recejv-
ed their money back FIVE or six
times over. The company is thinking
of revising its tariff, making the scale
for women much higher.
A distinguished doctor, when asked
to account for women's longer lives.
said:
"Men live much harder and smoke
and drink too much, even though theE
rarely work too much. Women are
wiser and think of the future, "ar"ty
smoke and drink one-tenth as much,
while their preoccupatiOns and r.Oral
sufferings are much less intense.
at 40 a woman is in the plentitude
of her physical powers, while a man
at the same age has probably con-
tracted organic weaknesses which will
shorten life."-New York Times.

Unlawful Taxing of School Children

Action has been taken by the San
Francisco board of education to end
an abuse in that city which was for
merly rife in the schools of Homo
lulu. That is, the exaction of contri
buttons of money from the pupils for
fads and folderols which might take
the fancy of the teachers. In some
cases We object for which the dime or
nickel was levied never materialized,
but there was no refunding of the
money, wherever it went. Perhaps
the practice is still in vogue to some
extent here, and if so the educational
department should squelch it: tits
