Bertillon, Ie inquires tirst Into the nuptlality or chance of marrlage of widowers, 1f they cqual or ex~ ceedd bachelors in thele ardor for marrlage, the conjugal state can hardly bo waligned. It is necessary here to compare widowers and bachelors of tho same nwzes. M. Bertitlon nc- cordingly constructs curves based on data from Holland (belng the fullest obtaiuable). 1t ap- pears that of 1,000 men of 25 to 85 years of ago, 110 or 112 marry each year. Jn the other hand, the corresponding number for widowers {s 450, or threo times os many. At other nagea the difference Is still greaters widowers marry four times moro than bachelors of the same age, und {n the case of youus men (21 and under) the numbers are 200 und four respectively, * Diagrama for Frauce, En- glana, miud Belelam give ltke results, -Next the author Inquires into the nuptfality of divorced men. ‘The fncts of thefr bad ex- verlence of mnrriage, their linbility to refection ns Lad spouses, and sometimes their taving children, would eeem in favor of thelr continu-~ ing unmarried, Thoe numbers show that while up to 24 years of age divorced men marry lcss thon thess conslderably. 'l'lu?' do not. fi- deed, attain to the readiness of the widowers until 40 years of sage, when they actually wmarry more than widowers, (This applles to Iolland und_ Bwitzertand, the oniy countrics trom which data were obtuinable.) ‘Thera is the possible expianation thut some men got divoreed from one wife to marry another, But a like ex- planation would hardly apply to many widow- vrs, viz.: that they procured the death of ono wlig for another. The general conclusion is that movriae, for fromn causimz regrets in men who contract it crentes habits, “on the coutrary, the dep: vatlou of which 15 much Tclt. case of females, M. Bertillon simlinr * results, though less declded 45 to 30 years of nge, when Dutch girls mnaery” nost, widows are found to marry about twlce as much, and a corresponding dlfference appears througaout similarly In8witz- erland and in Epeland. ‘There are two excep- tions to this rule, however. In the City of Ber- lin widows past 80 marry almost exactly In tho samo proportion as spinsters, and in Frateo they marey o Htelo loss, ‘I'ic state of young widowhood seems to press tho same cvarywhere. Is the stato of things in France, then, to Lo explained by sayfur that Frencli husbands sro wickeder than othersd 1 prefer to belleve,” says M. Bertillon, f* that they are, on the contrary, too good, sud that they leave widows ahsolutely inconsolnble. Divorced women give a curve pretty similar to that of adi- vorced men. Up to about 80 years of age they marry considerubly less than “spinsters, but be- yond'that they show even a greater disposition to marringo even than widows, nnd this differ- ence continucs to the end of life. From FEMININE PLUCK. Zirermore (Ca'.) Merald, The wife of & certaln well-known rancher liv- Ing near this place has got the true writ. Mer Nusband wus awsy on busincss a whole week recently, and one day whilo Lie was sbsent the pump gave out. The nearest nelzhbor lived a long distance, scshe hofsted up the pipe her- gclf, nnd found that the trouble lay in the suc- tlon leather, which was too much worn to work properly. Away she went and eut a new one, using the old one vs o pattern, Oarcturning sho found thut a large hoz had fallen into the open well, Nothiug daugted, she zot a strong rope, mude a slip-noose, flshed {t around -thio squeal- Ing porker, and then, liftingas hard ns sho conld, made tho end_fast to the curb, thus raising the antinal partially out of the water und provent- fng it from drowning. She then harnessed a lorse, hitehed him to the rove, and, fn less timo than 1t takes to tell it, that hog, Al dripping with freshness, arose from the well, But hefore the rescue of the parent animal two of her offspring, crowding too closo to the curb, probably to sympathiza with thelr wmoth- er's distress, “lost balanco and wero now floun- dering around in the water at the bottom, In- stantly tho hog was rescued, our heroine set about the recovery of the pigs.
