PARENTS HARDEST
Figures Show More Deaths
Among Native Population.
Edited by
Trained. Students of the
Worlds Affairs

New York.-Children under five
years old who are born in this city of
native parents die more quickly than
children whose parents are foreigners,
according to figures for 1914 made pub
lie recently by the health department.
The compilation. which was made I'M
der the direction Of Dr. William III.
Guilfoy, registrar of records. shows
that out of every 1000 children of ma
tive white parentage forty-four boys
and thirty-fye girls do not reach their
fifth year, whereas on the same basis
thirty nine boys and thirty-two girls
who are the offspring of foreigners die
in early childhood.
The infant mortality figures for the
native population are swelled to q
greater disproportion when the rec
ords for negro children are considered.
Among this class 112 male babies and
ninety-five female die out of every
1000. Added to the statistics for
whites, these figures give an average
of seventy-eight boys and sixty-five
girls
In the opinion Of Dr.. Charles +. Boil
duan, director of the bureau Of public
health education, the foreign mother
is more apt to remain at home and
look after her child than the native
mother, who is called away by great
er number of social duties. Although
the native mother can read magazines
which treat Of the proper upbringing
of children, DR.. BOlduan pointed out
that the health authorities come into
more personal contact with the for
eign mothers.
The mortality among native white
children, arranged according to the
birthplace Of the mother, gave the fol-
lowing results: Native mothers, 80 per
1000; English, &c; German and AustrO-
Hungarian, %; Swedish, %; Russian
and Polish, 20; Irish. 80; Italian. 3d.
and French, 30.
Among the babes of negro parents
the only disease group that approx
mated the figures for white native chill
dren was that of the contagious dis
eases. All their causes of death, espe-
cially tle respiratory, tuberculous and
congenfta1, exhibited a mortality much
higher than among the whites.

Before Judge Dinsmore could rule
Arbuckle said

is laboring under terrific strain and
that l must be allowed some latitude
For Il moment the judge hesitated,
his palpable sympathy with the little
witness struggling within him with his
duty to hold the scales of justice even.
His words to Arbuckle were caution
airy, but his manner was kindly as he
said to the lawyer for the defense:
"Try not to lead the witness"
The momentary rest had done Doris
good. and when Arbuckle asked her,
You say you heard Il noise, Doris p
she seemed trife less exhausted.
She answered, Yes, sir
What kind of a noise was it?'
Il don't know-a funny noise-like a
little firecracker."
And what did your mother do when
she heard the noise?"
The vivid recollection brought back
all of Doris terror and WEAKNESS. She
made brave attempt to answer. say

She took me in her arms and kissed

And she went away"

The child Sobbed: No. no. | want

eyes rested upon her father, sitting in
the prisoners chair and staring at her
in strained attention. Doris rose from
the witness chair and started from the
platform toward her father. crying:

mamma cry and run away from me?''
Before Doris could set foot on the
floor of the courtroom Arbuckle caught
her in his arms and said to the court.
That's the childs story. your honor
Strickland had started to his feet
when his little daughter had turned to

VISITING Cards.

While it would be difficult to say
just when visiting cards were first
used, we are quite certain of the fact
that they are not Of very ancient date.
Apparently they were adopted in Eng
lish society before they were generally
used on the continent. 1t was proba-
bly, about 100 that they came into
fashion in Great Britain, and it was as
late as ITO when they were intro
duced in Paris. 1t appears that the
first visiting cards were regular play
ing cards, the backs Of which were
used for the address.

Doris Strickland had told the story
of the tragic last night in her home.
All the cOurtroom-judge, jurymen, at
torneyS, attendants, SpectatOrS-had lis
tened Spellbound to the child. She was
bright youngster and had required
but little leading by David Arbucl1le.
Several times District Attorney Gray,
Jealous of the interests of his client,
the sovereign people, had objected to
questions put to the child by Arbuckle
on the ground that they were leading
questions and therefore calculated to
bring out the answers which the at
torney wanted. But Judge DinSmOre
had ruled that the age Of the child was
such that latitude must be allowed to
the attorney for the defense
Even the judge himself, learned
grave, stern and impartial, had been
favorably impressed by the childs
manner on the stand and had smiled
at her, thereby encouraging her to go
on with her story even when she was
tired.
Now, however, the limit of the child's
strength seemed to have been reached,
and she sobbed in childish yearning for
q mothers comforting presence. Alas,
that mother had not been found in
spite of diligent search by prosecution
and defense! Was she alive or dead!
No one knew. Had she sought relief
in voluntary death, and had her body
gone the way taken by SO many life
weary women in New York-the way
