Jlmmie said If their education taught
them to torpedo Lusltanlas, sink hospital
ships, murder hundreds of women

the Belgians, poison wells, destroy fruit
trees and commit all sorts of crimes.
then we did not went that kind of
education here. What do yon think
about It, Uncle Dan? I told Jlmmle
you spent a lot of time In Europe and
knew all about schools, ao give us your
opinion."
"Well," replied Uncle Dan, deliberately,
"the German schools are very
thorough; they furnish exceedingly valuable
and practical Instruction. The
Industrial training given there Is probably
the best to be found. The schools

RUSSIA, COUNTRY OF FAMINE

Next to the proletariat of India an<

One of the earliest famines In Rus

for three years, with a death toll o
500,000 peasants. Cats, dogs and rati
were eaten; the strong overcame th<

Multitudes of the dead were foun*

1 The famine of 1911 extended ove
one-third of the area of the empire Ii
Europe and affected more or less
30,000,000 people, wfliile 8,000,000 wen
reduced to starvation. Weeds, th<
bark of trees and bitter bread mad<
from acorns constituted the chief die
for the destitute. This was the mos
widespread and most severe famim
which has befallen a European nutioi
in modern times.

CELIBATES IN LARGE NUMBER
1 Seventeen Millions of Class in United
e States, Many Being Inferior to
e Married People.
1 ! "There are 17,000,000 celibates In the
I United States, according to a stateh
ment which has been going the rounds
- of the press, after originating In a
1 magazine article on the sex question,"
f says the Journal of Heredity. "Exam9
lnution of the census schedules for
e 1910 indicates that this figure Includes
i- all males over twenty and all females
L over fifteen.
1 "A calculation based on such age
r. limits Is misleading, but the actual
- facts are .quite striking enough. Pere
sons thirty-five years of age or over
- are relatively unlikely to marry, and
i it seems fair to base computations on
g that age. They show, then, that there
e are nearly 2,000,000 unmarried men In
the population, and about 1,250,000 une
married women. There are about 1,500,000
unmarried women between the
r ages of twenty-five and thirty-four,
i and a considerable part of these are
b certain never to marry.
e ~ "The celibacy of these millions Is,
e from a eugenic point of view, not
B wholly to be deplored. While the num1
her includes many potential fathers
* and mothers of a desirable character,
B It Is probable that, on the whole, these
1 ! life-long celibates are engenlcally lnfe;
rlor to the married population."
i Legal Witticisms.
? i Stories from the law courts are apt
' j to be good, legal wit being noted for
' its dryness. But this story claims no
particular merit, except us showing
the usefulness of a ready wit, observes
n the Christian Science Monitor. The
e counsel for the plutntiff was delivering
H an impassioned address. He was
u somewhat weighty in person, and hapL*
pened to be leaning on a very old
? chair. In the middle of the torrent of
' eloquence, the chair gave way and the
r" barrister lay on the floor in the midst
n of the wreckage. He got \ip and, nnr"
perturbed, pointing to the broken chair,
y said: "That proves the strength of
c' my argument." The court smiled
d broadly, but inughed outright when the
y opposing counsel promptly replied:
| "The learned counsel's argument may
" ne ail that He claims for it, but It fell
ie i to the ground."
