"EUGENIC" MARRIAGES

Certain clergymen have decided
not to marry persons who can not
bring suitable health certificates
Here is big question from scien-
tific laboratories on which the
every day man must soon pass.
While millions of money arc
poured out in breeding better
horses and cattle the only reward
given for breeding better babies is
the useless trinket awarded at the
society baby show.
1t arouses thought to learn from
statistics that the average mechanic
of London has but FIVE children,
while the average mentally defect
i've person in the same city has a
family of seven. The more unfit
the person is to have children the
faster he seems to produce them.
On the other hand the making
of vital distinctions between in
dividuals, on the basis of physical
examination leads to chances of
grave error. There may be harm
from prejudice and malice. One
who is debarred from normal hu-
man privilege as test of failure to
confirm to a physical standard
must suffer a most depressing
shock.
Skeptics adduce the fact that
though the Greeks had few health
laws. their type of physical health
and mental efficiency has never
been surpassed Even some Of the
so-called unfit may have their place
in the world. Caesar Alexander,
and Napoleon were epileptirs,
Carlyle was dyspeptic, and Sinoza,
Keats and Mozart were tubercular
Undoubtedly the world is getting
ready to take stricter stand on
the marriage of habitual criminals
and persons of weak mentality
The duty of not transmitting
dreadful diseases to future race
of children is one that should be
pressed home to every individual
conscience.
But probably it is some time be-
fore young man will need to put
his medical certificate in his poke
before he goes counting

A Reply That Won Napoleon and the
Duke Of Modena.
In the French campaign in Italy. in
which Napoleon l. first began to win
the laurels which subsequently so
abundantly crowned his career, a
young Italian cavalry officer was TAX
en- prisoner.
Having serious doubts about his
safety, it occurred to the prisoner to
pretend he was great parsonage. So
he promised rewards to his captors II
they would insure his good treatment.
adding contidentially that he was the
Duke of Modena.
He was exceedingly well cared for
and early next morning he was called
before Napoleon. who was somewhat
puzzled at finding two Dukes of Mo-
dena among his prisoners. for the real
duke was also prisoner. The real
duke angrily asked his counterfeit by
what authority he had assumed the
title Of Duke of Modena. The young
officer answered.:
Your grace. the peril OF my situa-
ton yesterday was such that had 1
known more illustrious title | would
not have assumed yours"
The reply so pleased both the duke
and Napoleon that he was forgiven his
deceit.
