"It takes 100 to 400 years to grow
such trees as have made up the great
forests of Michigan, which have dis
appeared in large measure, but they
can be destroyed in a day," says an
exchange. It Is estimated that the
great fires which have swept over the
remaining forests of portions of sev
eral states have destroyed $40,000,
000 worth of timber. As we have
reached the point where the cost of
lumber must be measured by the cost
of replacing the forests with new
growth it will be appreciated that
this loss does not fall upon any one
state alone."

OPEN DAY AND NIGHT.
The number of unemployed in
Great Britain is exceedingly large,
according to various reports, and the
government is much perplexed over
relief measures. The Manchester
Guardian says: "How many men
and women are unemployed is not
known. Keir Hardie estimates the
number at 2,250,000; his colleague
and chief, Mr Schackleton, at 1,000,-
000. The government offers no esti
mate, but that the figure is excep
tionally high Is beyond question, and
even if we accept Mr Burns's view
that the labor market In the winter
of 1906 was worse, It remains a fact
that all the efforts of the local gov
ernment board to equate labor de
mand and labor supply have produced
no very material effect."
accompanied by an Increase of 79 per
cent cent in the number of divorces
granted. In tie next decade, 1880
to 1890, the population Increased 25
per cent and divorces 70 per cent, and
in the following decade, 1890 to
1900, an increase of 21 per cent in
population was accompanied by an in
crease of 66 per cent In the number
of divorces. In the six years from
1900 to '1906, population," as esti
mated, Increased 10.5 per cent and
divorces 29.3 per cent. It thusap
pears that at the end of the forty
year period divorces were increasing
about three times as fast as popula
tion, while in the first decade (1870
to 1880) they increased only about
two and two-thirds as fast. The di
vorce rate per 100.000 population in
creased from 29 in 1870 to 82 in
1905. In the former year there was
one divorce for every 3,441 persons
and in the latter year one for every
1,218. Since it is only married peo
ple who can become divorced, a more
significant divorce rate is that which
is based ,not upon total population,
but upon the total married popula
tion. The rate per 100,000 married
population was 81 in the year 1870
and 200 in the year 1900. This
comparison indicates that divorce is
at present two and one-half times as
common, compared, with married
population, as it was forty years ago.
A divorce rate of 200 per 100,000
married population is equivalent to
two per 1,000 married population.
Assuming that 1,000 married people
represent 500 married couples, it fol
lows that in each year four married
couples out of every .1,000 secure a
divorce. This does not mean that
only four marriages out of 1,000 are
terminated by divorce. The" rate, it
will be noted, is an annual rate, con
tinuously operative, and comes far
short of measuring the probability of
ultimate divorce. The available data
indicate, however, that not less than
one marriage in twelve is ultimately
terminated by divorce. Divorce rates
appear to be much higher In the
United States than in any of the for
eign countries for which statistics re
lating to this subject have been obtained.

As illustrating in a somewhat dif
ferent way how men respond and ad
just themselves to reward, or, what
comes to the same thing, the maxi
mum satisfaction for a given amount
of effort, two instances that came un
der my observation while in the navy,
says a writer in the Engineering
Magazine, are very interesting. One
cruise was made on a vessel whose
executive officer was, in most re
spects, a very able man. Discipline
in general was admirable. In ar
ranging for shore leave of the enlist
ed men, however, he managed so to
arrange matters, strange as it may
seem, that it was possible for a man
in an inferior conduct grade to get
more liberty than one of the best, be
haved men. This was, of course, en
tirely unnatural and came about
from a combination of two separate
systems. The reason was that naval
regulations compelled the giving or
at least a certain amount of shore
leave to men In the second grade,
while the system he was using actu
ally allowed less to a man in the first
grade. The result was that in a
short time the bulk or the men were
in the second conduct grade where
thev could get the most liberty. At
a later date, on another ship, the ex
ecutive officer was an extremely able
man, who had studied this question
more carefully and was a great be
liever In making it worth while for
the men to behave themselves and
keen In a high conduct grade. He so
arranged matters that if any man be
haved himself sufficiently well and
did all .his work with high efficiency
he could have an unusual amount of
liberty-. The result was that this ship
had more than half Its crew In what
is known as the "special first class,"
far and away- the largest percentage
that ever came nnder my observation.

The president has ordered fifty
mile tramps by naval officers, as a
test of heart and limb. Indeed, it
might be a good thing if we all had
to follow suit for a part of the dis
tance. As Americans, we are inclined
to be weak In the legs. Ansonia

The New Haven coroner has evi

not charge the man with responsi

In Michigan it has been decided
that an institution that receives state
aid cannot refuse to admit negro
students. That seems to be in ac
cordance with .the terms of the con
stitution. It remains to be seen if

inate or to keep the state appropria

The frequent occurrence of auto
mobile accidents emphasizes the
fact that greater care is needed in
the operations of the machines.
Scarcely a day passes, but what re
ports are received of fatalities due
to carelessness. Unsuspecting per
sons are run down, malned for life
or killed outright; or more frequent
ly, the occupants of the machine
themselves are the victims of care
less driving. Of course, as long as
there are automobiles, there will be
accidents; but some measures should
be taken to lessen this needless sac
rifices of life. Torrington Register.
The best winter in years is in
store for this community. In less
than three weeks after Mr Taft's
election the industries which had
suffered through the depression are
running on full time and many
workingmen are soon to be given
steadv employment. That means
more money in circulation and bet
ter times for every local business
man. There is reason to -cheer up
and to expect a happier Christmas
for a greater number of persons than
a year ago. Every sign points to
the bpst winter New London has
seen in years. New London Tele

The total number of diyorces re
ported for thp twenty years, 1887 to
1906, inclusive, was 945,625. For
the earlier investigation, covering the
twenty years. 1867 to 1S86, inclusive,
the number reported was 328,716, or
hardly more than one-third of the
number recorded In the second twen
ty years. At the beginning of fhe
forty year period, covered by the two
investigations, divorces occurred at
the rate of 10.000 a year; at the end
of that period the annual number was
about 60,000. This increase, how
ever, must bo considered in connec
