A HEALTHY YEAR.
From the New York Globe

Insurance company statistics, cover
ing q. .000, 600 persons, make 1921 the
healthiest year in The history of the Unit
ed States and Canada. The death rate
among policy holders dropped during that
period from 80 per thousand to g. "a per
thousand. Influenza all but disappeared
tuberculosis, pneumonia, BriRht's dis
ease, measles, whooping cough, typhoid
fever and numerous other ailments
brought fewer persons to their graves
than in 1920 despite rising birth rate
and growing population. The only dis
couraelng fact was a considerable in
crease of deaths by suicide, homicide and
auto obile accidents.
While the 1921 figures may in part be
traceabIe to exceptional circumstances,
there is every reason to believe they rep
resent two important drifts in the atti-
tude of the race toward itself A de-
crease in one year from 65, 96I to 40, Ola
deaths attributable to respiratory diseases
is significant. So is the fact that while
tuberculosis now claims one in every
nine policy holders. it claimed one in
every four but 10 years ago. The age of
science shas found weapons to repulse
many an i'll of which human flesh was
once the inevitable prey.
The skill which man has been able to
bring to his fight against disease is as
poten italy useful in the obvious battle
to be waged against the careless and vic.
ious of his own kind.

Peter Was Only Love-Sick Old Tailor

0HICAGO.-Had it not been for an
idle wind that waited the teasing
aroma Of well-browned pancake
across the pathway Of Peter Kuztzi,
snappy tailor at 1901 Cleveland ave-
nue.
Peter first knew the pangs OF love
four years ago, when, following the
aroma of a pancake, he came to the
kitchen window of the Olivet institute
at 444 Blackhawk street, and within
saw Leona Merthis. the cook.
Within a year they were engaged
Every day at luncheon time he passed
the window and smelled and smiled.
She smiled in return until a few
days ago. Then her smile turned to
scorn.
"Tve changed my mind" she said.
"I'll never marry tailor"
Peter gave up his goose His suit,
however, refused to prosper. Then,
tired of waiting for her to again accept
his ring, he called with revolver
"Will you marry me?' he asked when
re found her mixing a cake in the
kitchen.
Never" she replied. "If there's no
choice but you, I'll be a cook all my
life"
