rambal ~ que encantador es Ell
dulce misterio de esta muy ANA

Todas esas exclamaciones vi
nieron a mi mente en- esta no.
che tormentosa que no me per-
miti6 la acostumbrada salfda
del hogan, despues de conner.
La causa de TODD Sc debe a
que me prse a hojear una revis-
ia sobre demografia. Juzgando
por las detallaias estadlsticas,
ell pals mas saludable del mundo
para vivir es la Nueva Zelan-
dia. Seg1n las notas, registra ell
mas bajo promedio de mortali-
dad con relaci6n a sus haitian
ties y comparable con otros paf-
ses del mundo. FL promedio de
defunciones es solo de 8.5 por
mil habitantes.
Aquf, en- Estados Unidos, te-
nemos un calculo bastante ba-
JIG, con promedio de mortalidad
de IL por mil. En- Gambia en- el
pals donde la genie Sc muere
ioven Y como chinches, es Gel
Ian, donde Sc ha registrado un
promedio de muertes de 1856
por mil. A Ceilan lie sigue Chi
le, con una anotaci6n de 26.8.
Saltando a Europa, encontra-
mos, en- las regiones occiden-
tales, que ell promedio de defun
clones depende del estado de a.
nimo del "Bello" Adolfo Hitler
cuando sc levanta de su mullido
lecho. Observance que Ell pro-
medic mas bajo Sc registra en-
Alemania, con 1913 por mil; en-
I~nglaterra ell promedio es de
11.8 y en- Francia es mas alto,
con 1871 por cada millar de ha-
bitantes.
Leyendo esas cifras y pensan
do en- 10 que esta ocurriendo en-
Espaha, China y otros lrgares
donde Sc asesina a los seres hu-
manos sin compassion nj miseri-
cordia, encontramos que Ceilan
con su alto promedio de morta-
lidad, muy pronto aparecera en-

A race of men with tails is re-

Papua, and evidence of their exist

from the Fly River area, according
to the annual report of the lieu
tenant-governor of Papua, Sir HUI
bert Murray.
The native was emphatic that
tailed men were to be found some
where to the east of the Kemp

more details, and said he was con-
fident that at least one of these per-
sons had tail. When asked why
he was so positive, he replied: "Be-
