Veal
BY Mary AIlread Baker

Six short weeks ago the two
calves dropped,
One white as snow, and the
other brown.
And ] hoped to keep them, but
Dad said NO
Today they were loaded and
sent to town.
For six weeks they'd romped in
the cattle shed,
And nursed their dams IN the
chilly morn;
And again of evenings, and then,
full fed,
They slept through the night
in the straw so warm.
Shy, pretty creatures, with great,
dark eyes.
Timid, at first, and with many
a halt,
At length they came, and with
glad surprise
They licked my hand for
taste of salt.
Dear baby calves! And now on
their way
To the slaughter-pens. How
their dams will low!
And tears are misting my eyes
today
For Little Brownie" and
Little Snow"

recorded than were ever experi- enced in corresponding periods of any other year.
 However, the statisticians report that the cumulative 1887 death rate is higher by 4.6 per cent among the 1,250,O00 insured persons living in Canada than during the first eleven months of 1886. his rise, however, is not a cause for alarm, since the year. r-to-date figure for Canada is only 6.6 per 1000 of insured. This, it is pointed out, is a very low death rate and indicates that health con- ditions among Canadian policyhold- CTS are, on the whole, distinctly favorable.
 New minimal death rates for this insured class for the United States and Canada combined are practical ly assured for 1887 for the following causes of death: typhoid fever, tuberculosis, chronic nephritis, peur- peral diseases, homicides, and &C., cidents. In addition, new low fig ures for mortality for syphilis and appendicitis are expected to be re- corded.
 Mortality Decline
 The drop in the mortality from diseases of the maternal state is held the most noteworthy health development in 1897 by the statis- ticians. The remarkably low figure of 6.6 per 100000 was recorded in the cumulative death rate for these diseases in the first II months of 1887, and the figure for the entire year is expected to approximate this. Compared with the death rate of 15.5 per 100000 for these diseases 10 years ago, the decrease has been 57 per cent.
 Despite increases in mortality from tuberculosis up to the end of May, 1887, at the end of November the year-to- figure was 4.6 per cent lower than for 1886, when the previous minimum death rate from tuberculosis was set. This record was made possible through improve ment in the tuberculosis death rate during the summer and autumn months.

New York, N. r., Jan. 3.-The lowest death rate for any month of November in the history of the 17,500,000 Industrial policyholders of the Metropolitan Life Insurance company was recorded in November 1887. This new minimum of TT per 1000 brings the mortality for the II months of the year to 8.3 per 1000, which also is the lowest ever recorded among this large cross section of the population in the like part of any year.
 Expect New Figure
 Indications are, according to the insurance company's statisticians, that the year, 1897 will register a new low mortality figure for these industrial policyholders. In five suc- cessive months of 1937-from May to September-and also in Novem- Der, lower mortality rates have been
