Infant Wiortality High - in the “Good Old Days”

The mothers of Pius II and Dean' Colet had each twenty-twe children; in| the one case only ten grew up, in the. other only the dean. The parents of Philip Doddridge, the original author of the second “Paraphrase,” had twenty children, but only Philip and a sister gurvived their infancy. Thomas Gray, the poet, was the sole survivor of twelve. - Of the fifteen children of the earl and countess of Bridgewater., famed in connection with Miiton’s “Comus;” five died young. Of the twelve children of Richardson, the novelist, all died young except four. - Three of Ebenezer Erskine's ‘ten children died in two months, and tlater he lost his favorite daughter, Of the eleven children of Edmund and Catherine Nelson, parents of Lord Nelson, three died. ¢ It thus ‘appears that even in favorable circumstances children dled at an alarming rate. The heavy mortality was not always due to poverty. Dean Lolet’s father was twice lord mayor of -London, and' quite able, therefore, to bring up a, large family. In the case of Ebenezer Erskine’s children, lack of proper sanitation was largely the cause.— Rev. William Watson in Chambers’ Journal. - :

Jealous Man or Woman - Lacks Self-Assurance

“There is, perhaps, no such thing as love without an occasional display of jealousy,” says® Burton Rascoe. “But in every case I believe it will be found that the one who is jealous has lost for the mowment his or 'her self-assur-ance. It may be because of illness or overwork or a protracted lack of diverglon. - :

“When I have been jealous or my wife has been jealous I have a'lways noticed ' that our jealousy could be traced to one of these three things. When I have been jealous, they have been occasions when I felt myself at a disadvantage, when my egoism was not topnotch. ; “The man who knows that he can depend upon his wife not to leave him in the lurch or desert him in a crisis or find some one else irresistibly more attractive, is pretty sure of himself, sure of his power to attract, sure of ‘his worthiness as a man. This is true also of a woman.”—Hearst’s Interna-tional-Cosmopolitan.

Law. of Distance

The fact that smoke near a smoke stack appears to be dark and then grow lighter and lighter is a good illustration of the law of the inverse square of the distance. At one foot radius: from the center of the stack, the surface exposed in any section is very small and the smoke particles very 'close together, and the passage of light through the particles is almost prevented. The smoke then appears black. 3' a twe-foot radius the particles arij twice as far apart and only one-quarter of the area is covered, allowing four times the light to pass through. .This section is continuous, and more and more light passes through the smoke particles, causing them to become of a much lighter color against the sky background. At some finite distance from the mouth of the stack, the ‘separation has been so great that there is practically no more interference with the light and the smoke disappears.

Florida Homes Bright

Blues, greens, browns, reds and purples—every hue of the rainbow—you see in the stucco houses and bungalows which have made Florida famous. The curious color effects are seeured either by incorperating certain mortar colors in the plaster or by painting the surface of the stucco with large brushes and the desired pigment mixture when the surface has dried. Pink and ivory with deep green trim are popular combinations, as are also mixtures .of lavender, blue and mulberry with white trim. Pale green ‘with polychrome is also a standard. color combination. The maJority of these stucco houses are built with red tile roofs.

Early Vice Presidents

John Adams, who received the second highest number of votes, became vice president in the first and second administrations of George Washington. In the same way Jefferson was elected vice president in 1796 when Adams was elected President, and Aaron Burr took. second place in 1800 when Jefferson was elected President. By the twelfth amendment to the Constitution, effective .September 25, 1804, the electors were instructed to ballot separately for President and vice president. George Clinton was the first man nominated and elected to the office of vice president, being elected in November, 1804, when Jefferson was re-elected President, S

Water Wheel Floats

A water wheel has been invented which is designed to adjust itself automatically to the varying height of the propelling stream. As first constructed the wheel has eight V-shaped paddles about 13 feet long and 14 inches wide, and it is so mounted on an alrtight tank that it rises and falls with the river’s changes through any height up to 36 fect. It is used for pumping irrigating water from a distance of 280 feet to a height of 70 feet above the source. Pumps and gearing are placed on the river bank, and. the wheel and tank are connected by a shaft having universal couplings at each end.
