in the year 1872. when the German
Empire was enjoying increased pros

500 marriages concluded. When the
economic panic reached its height, IN
1913 the marriages fell 10 335,l33.

be sorry 10 hear that many of our
prettieSt wild flowers are fast dying

often all they can find. They cannot
all grow again, as people sometimes
hink, because the flowers that are
picked cannot go to seed, and If large
branches are pulled off it will take
long for the plant to get back to the
same size. Then many Of our very
prettiest flowers have but one blossom
or cluster to a plant, and a small
plant, too; and people are apt to take
the whole of such plants, roots and all.
