It is noteworthy that there were 7 con- victions among unmarried males to 1 among unmarried females; among married persons the proportion was 8.5 to 1, while widows and widowers were convicted in equal proportion. Among unmarried persons the crim- inal tendencies of the sexes became more and more equalized with increas- ing age. Thus, while among persons of 18 to 40 years, the male criminals are to the female as 8 to 1, among per- sons of 40 to 50 years the proportion falls to 4 to 1, and among persons above 50 years old it is 3 to 1. The reverse is the case with mar- ried persons, for the difference in criminality is here least between the ages of 18 and 25 years. From the 25th to the 60:h year the proportion is 4to 1, and then crime increases to the disadya re of the males, Considering female crime alone, it is found that the most criminal age is from 30 to 40 ¥ . and the next to it is that from 40 10 50. Statisties for the years 1882 to 1885 show that female crime prevails mostly in the Duchy of Anhalt, the principality of Schwarz- burg-Sondershausen, and the kingdom of Saxony. and the least criminality is found in the government district of Munster and the Wurtenberg district of Wal + Pai ations, 2 cannot portion of the ear. is or way of curing deat- nd that 1s by constitutional reme- med the > is caused the mucus lir When th 2 tu be gets sound or inflaw impericet ly closed less the in and this tub: id wi the result, can be taken out sstored to its normal con- atness is nmation dition I be d »ved tor- ever; caused by catarrh, whict vis nothing but an in- flamed cc ion ot the mucus surtaces.

Toads have long been an icle of commerce here; in most well ordered gardens the visitor will occasionally be startled by a quaint apparition on the pathway, pufling like an asthmatic’old gentleman, and the suburban market gardeners and nurserymen very frequently have them in their frames and greenhouses and about their grounds. But until re- cently our horticulturists have been satistied with the exertions of the na tive toads in ridding them of slugs grubs and noxious insects.
