Has Hiuhest Death Rate,

The unenviable record of possess
ing what is probably the highest
death rate of any city in the world
is stated in the annual report of the
British vice consul for Bolivia, Mr..
G. T. Maclean, to belong to Cocha-
banda, where there was a mortality
of rs per 1000 last year. This ex-
treme mortality is said to be due not
so much to climatic or other natural
causes as to the lack of knowledge
among the lower classes of the most
elementary rules of hygiene, a fact
which is corroborated by the percent
age of infant mortality, about 40 per
cent. Of the deaths being children un-
der five years of age. =

On Christmas eve, at midnight, coun-

times, therefore, II there is sick
child in the house, the mother will
take the little one to the door, just be-

cause the Babe Of Bethlehem has
touched It with healing fingers during
the earthward journey. But If the

the mother heart is comforted by the
thought that the little one was called
by the Christ child to be his play.
