They Recover Quickly.

The marriage or rather the remar- riage statistics in the mairies of Paris make sad reading for the sentimental ists. Of 2,27O disconsolate widowers 14S remarry within a year. The de fections increase with terrible rapidity in the second year, which sees CPS re- lapses from the ranks of mourners, At the end of the third year only thirty seven widowers remain. With the wid- ows it is even worse. None remarry within the first year of their husbands decease. but it is feared that this is due not to fidelity. but to the strict legal veto which obtains in France. Once the laws delay is at an end they go off with vertiginous rapidfty. Of 1,007 weeping widows in eighteen months only four had not exchanged their weeds for wedding garments.-Paris Cor London Telegraph.

Norway,s Sick Insurance Law.

Norway has a sick insurance law which embraces all wage earners and public servants over fifteen years of age whose yearly earnings do not ex- ceed $322 if in the rural districts or $375 in the cities. The law also pro- vides that the employer shall pay a certain percentage (one-sixth) of the premium, while he is held responsible for the whole, but may deduct from the wages of the insured at the end of the term for which the premium is paid the amount thus advanced. The oretically it is self insurance on the contributive plan, while actually it amounts to an extra tax upon the em- ployer. as most employees stipulate when engaging their services that the insurance premium shall be paid in addition to the wages.
