Wikl Reach Total of Thirty-Five Miltion People. According to-a report made by the Soclety for.the Study of the Social Consequences of the War, which has its headquarters at . Copenhagen, be- tween the outbreak of that conflict and the middle of 1919 Europe lost about 85,000,000 people. Of this deficit in what would have been the normal pop- ulation’ of the continent at the latter date 20,000,000, are accounted for by the decline in' the birth. rate and 15, 000,000 by incréased mortality .includ< ing nearly 10,000,000 killed in battle. | The surplus of the female. sex in Europe hgs nearly tripled, rising from slightly more than 5,000,000 to 15,000,- 000. Russia and Poland suffered total losses of 18,000,000 ; Germany and Aus- tria. together slightly less than that number; France comes next with an estimated loss of 3,340,000; Italy fol- lows with 2,280,000; Great Britain and Ireland lost about 1,185,000, and little Serbla, including war casualties, ap- proaching ‘those of the United King- dom, 108t 1,650,000.—Living Age. t _‘Her Collectian of Bargains.

New stuff is very dear, but you'll man- age all right if you go to sales and things. You're a good bargain hunt- er.” i She was. But he had forgotten that to.the real huntress. of bargains low- ness of price appeals rather than util- ity. Otherwise he wouldgt have been 8o surprised at the results.

Chinese illk In America. The American démand for silk .in China' ‘has greatly increased in the] Jast ‘few years until ‘at the present tilne about 25 per cent of the Chinese silk is sent to the United States.
