THE SUPPLY OF BABIES.
What a Procession of Those Born In
One Year Would Mean.

What Procession of Those Born In
One Year Would Mean.
1t has been computed that about
100000 babies are born into the
world each year. The rate of produc-
ton is, therefore, about seventy per
minute, or more than one for every
beat of the clock
With the one-a-second calculation
every reader is familiar, but it is not
every one who stops to calculate what
this means when it comes to years
supply. 1t will, therefore, probably
startle good many persons to find, on
the authority Of a well known stats
tician, that, could the infants of a year
be ranged in a line in cradles, the
cradles would extend around the globe.
The same writer looks at the matter
in more picturesque light. He i'm
AGNES the babies being carried past
given point in their mothers arms,
one by one, and the procession being
kept up night and day until the last
hour in the twelfth month had passed
by. A sufficiently liberal rate is al
lowed, but even in going past at the
rate of twenty a minute, 1,20O an hour,
during the entire year, the reviewer at
his post would have seen only the
sixth part Of the infantile host.
In other words, the babe that lad to
be carried when the tramp began
would be able to walk when but
mere fraction of it's comrades had
reached the reviewers post, and when
the years supply of babies was draw
ing to close there would be a rear
guard, not of infants, but of romping
six-year-old boys and girls.-London

ORIGIN Of "Navvyv Workers.

The seventeenth century canals or
navigations gave rise to the navy"
a term very slowly evolved from may

lie houses in England still existing that
testify to the navvy's early designa-
don on their sign, ''The Navigators'
Arms" which depicts a brawny labor
err with a spade in one hand and
foaming pot of beer In the other But
you may search England through and
through and you will not find a NAV
WIS Arms Curiously enough, while
the navy who makes our roads now
obtained his designation from digging
out canals, the canals were all legally
classified as roads In great body or
statutes-the "road acts" But what
would have been his nickname il rail-
ways had come before waterways?-

HANGING PICTURES.
The Old Rule and Origin of the Term
"On the Line"

The Old Rule and Origin of the Term
"On the Line"
People still speak Of pictures being
hung ION the line" at the Royal Acade-
my, but very few indeed, even among
the present members themselves, know
the origin of the term. The common
belief that it implies a place on the
walls on the level with a spectators
eye is more or less correct. But when
the exhibitions were held in Somerset
House and Trafalgar square the term
meant something far more definite. In
those days people not only spoke of
pictures being hung ION the line," but
above the line" and "below the line"
THE line" was then a regular and per
manent fixture. 1t was a horizontal
line exactly eight feet from the floor.
marked by a projecting ledge that left
the surface of the wall below it two
inches In advance of that which was
above it.
: A picture was said to be hung 'on
the line'' when the top of its frame
was level with this ledge. "Hung
thus" says G.. d. Leslie, r. A., in "The
Inner Lift of the Royal Academy"
''the picture, unless very small one
indeed, was exactly at the height to
be viewed comfortably by a specta-
tor
The rule in old times was that all
very large pictures, as well as whole
length and half length portraits, had
to be placed above the line, the bot
toms of their frames resting on the
ledge which marked the line, but no
lower. The line was thus preserved
level, no pictures breaking through 1t
either from above or below.
