MARRIED MEN LIVE LONG
Statistical Expert Has Proved That
Husbands Are Better Risks
Than Bachelors.

DR.. Hans Curadze, the German stats
teal expert, has discovered a new
barrier" between men and women
After studying the statistics Of deaths
| and marriages he declares: IF men
want to enjoy long life they should
good old age they should remain spin
sters.'
lie admits that his conclusions can
be established with greater certainty
when the city of Berlin publishes its
proposed statistical tables of widows,
widowers, divorced persons and per-
sons who secured separations at vari-
Gus ages, but he says that tables al
ready available show that married
women die sooner than the unmarried.
whereas married men live longest.
Statistics show that the fatal age for
all males, married and unmarried, is
about forty-four whereas for the mar
ried men 1t lies between fifty-tive and
sixty.
The fatal age for all women Is about
| fifty, ten years more for unmarried
women, and nearly ten years less for
married.
Thus, if Doctor Curadze's statistics
are to be believed. the woman who re-
mains single may expect 20 years
more of life than her married sister.
Marriages dissolved by the death OF
the wife last, on an average, ten to tif-
teen years. those dissolved by the hus-
bands death usually last 20 to rs
years.
According to this the number OF
widowers in the average community
Is always considerably in excess Of the
number of widows. This Is only one
Of the interesting questions which will
answered by the elaborate statistics
being collected in Berlin.

Dredqe as a Life Saver.

When Arson Rabuck, fourteen years

His frantic mother, who lives close

save the boy and a half dozen men
took turns under her directions, at
using first aid to the injured meth.
DDS After half hours work the
boy showed signs of life and by eve.

Doctors said that it was one Of the

ADVICE FOR THE BRIDEGROOM
Writer Who Evidently Thinks He
Knows Has Something to Say
About Married Life.

You will think she is an angel, of
course.
At her best, she is; that is, as near
like one as mortals can be.
But don't let that scare you; for,
after all, she's human. She will need
three meals day; surprising lot of
clothes, much affection, more forbear-
ance and your constant steadying.
She won't always look or talk like
an angel. Sometimes she will seem
fright, and act the part.
Then, young fellow, is when il you
are wise, you will get right down out
of the clouds, cease to worship, and
with a smile on your face, take her
into your strong arms, put a kiss
where nature intended it, and lay
down the law.
We say this, not in the least APPROX
ing of masculine tyranny. There will
undoubtedly come times, very many of
EN-, when she, to balance the account.
will also lay down the law, You'll
obey without word, if you're wise
The poiat is, do it smilingly, and
with kiss.
1t all depends on how you lay the
law down whether you are a tyrant or
not. II you do as we say, we'll guaran-
tee that, nine times in ten, she'll like
you the better for il, and if, the
tenth time. she gets or stays huffy,
well, that ought to be good enough
score for one who isn't an angel in
fact.
And now we want to state a bald
truth. In spite of eugenics, heredity
and ali that sort of thing, your wife is
likely to be pretty much what you
make her. You can make her a slave,
q doll or a comrade.
Better try the latter.-Pittsburgh
Dispatch.

CHRISTINA OF THF.PAST.

Once more we approach what ought
to be the happiest day in the year, and
yet for many OF us it will be only the
elimination of period of mean wor-
ries, heart-burnings and unattained
hopes Is it necessary that we so de-
base it?
Consider the Christmases that are past.
| Are any of them syeeter to remember
| then those Of your childhood? And is
1t the multitude or the value Of the
gifts you received that made them dear?
On the wonderful morning that you re-
me mher SO we'll, there may have been
some pop corn balls and homemade
candy, or an orange or two, or a pair Of
mittens, or set Of paper dolls. Per-
haps il you were a boy, there was a
pair of stills that your father had made
or sled; or if you were getting into
young girlhood, little travelling toilet
case or a jewel casket, or work box.
There was nothing elaborate or ex-
pensive; only simple things, most of
which were home made.
Your happiness was owing not to
the events of the day, but to the spirit
of it; to the rosy light of imagination
that lay upon you, and the feeling OF
mystery that lifted the day to a height
above I'll others; the mystery of a
benign presence that had been work
ing to make, you happy, and unseen ant,
unheard had entered the house in the
night TO leave us tokens OF an unselfsh
love.
In the story of the wise men who
came out of the East, the words are
these. And when they had opened
their treasures, they presented unto
II i'm gifts" 1t does not say that they
gave themselves up to repining over
what they could not bestow or went a
bout searching anXiously for something
they did not have, but only that from,
their treasures-the things that they did
have-they gave simply and with love,
And the world has called them wise.
The old fashioned Christmas, the
best that the world has ever known
the only true Christmas-g back
more than nineteen hundred years, to
Bethlehem of Judea. Let us restore
and keep the spirit OF it.

CLOCK IN UNUSUAL PLACE
Set In the Floor of Hotel at Worces
ter, Mass, II Has Excited
Much Comment

In the center of the lobby Of a hotel
newly constructed at Worcester,
Mass, a large electrically illuminated
clock is embedded in the floor. The
clock is covered with a plate-glass
face one inch thick and two feet in
diameter The numerals and minute
marks are etched in by sand.blasting
on the under side of the glass, which
is held in place by strong bronze
rings. The face of the clock is light
ed by electric lamps, and in the
evenings its luminous cOuntenanCe
forms the most striking nature in the
hotel.
The clock Is a self-winder Its
hands are driven by spring-operated
and balance-wheel-co controlled train set
in a recess in the floor This recess
is formed by a metal box l0l9 inches
deep, which is painted white inside
Eight inches below each mineral on
the glass face is a ten-watt tungsten
lamp placed horizontally. The white
finish of the containing box reflects
the light from the IL lamps evenly
through the dial
A small motor operated by three dry
cells at intervals Of five minutes
winds the spring of the clock. These
cells, 1t is estimated, will suffice for
the working of the clock for one year
before a new battery must be in.
stalled Thus, costs of maintenance
are little. while the satisfaction which
the timepiece brings to the idle lobby
lounger who may watch the minutes
flying at his feet is large.

A SONG OF CHRISTMAS.
liant me a rhyme of Christmas

Chant me a rhyme of Christmas
Sing ne jOvial song,
And. though 1t is flied with laughter
Let it be pure and strong.
Sing Of the hearts brimmed over
With the story of the day,
OF the echo Of childish voices
That will not die away.
OF the blare Of the taSSeIed bugle
And the timelesS clatter and beat
OF the drum that throbs to muster
Squadrons of scamperlng feet.
But, oh, let your voices fall fainter
Tin, hlent with a minor tone,
You temper yoar song with the beaut.
OF the pity Christ hath shown.
And sing one verse for the voiceless
And yet, ere the song be done,
\ verse for the ears that hear not
And verse for the sightless one.
For, though it Ice time for singing
a merry Christmas glee,
Let a low sweet voice of pathos
Run through the melody.

WHEN SHEPHERDS WATCHED
BY NIGHT.

Some historians contend that the
shepherds could not have watched by
night on the Bethlehem plains in De-
cember, IT being period of great in
clemency. In answer to this n we'll
known student says; Bethlehem is not
a cold region. The mercury usually
stands all the month OF December at
l6 degrees. Corn is sown during this
time, and the grass and herbs spring
up after the rains, 50 that the Arabs
drive their nocks down from the noun
tans into the plains The most deli
cate never make fires till about the end
OF November, and some pass the whole
winter without them. From these facts
il is established without doubt that our
Saviour was born on the 25th day Of
December the day which the church
throughout the world has united to
celebrate in honor Of Christ's coming
into flesh.
