Ia Uedluivnl Cities
There can be no doubt that one rea
lon why cities did not grow so rapidly
In the seventeenth and eighteenth cen
turies as in the nineteenth is the ex
cessively high death rate that pre
vailed during the earlier period The
flood of immigration mighty as it was
did little more than make good the
places of those citizens who fell vic
tims to grievous sanitary conditions
From the facts that can be obtained
It seems to have been universal true
that almost up to the beginning of the
nineteenth century the death rate of
large cities exceeded the birth rate
This was not because the birth rate
was abnormally low but because the
death rate was abnormally high In
the medifcval city both birth rate and
death rate were far higher than at
present Infant mortality must have
mounted to a grewsome height The
unclcanlinesn and overcrowding of city
dwellers now largely relegated to the
slums of our great cities was the nor
mal state of nearly all classes of so
ciety in the London and Paris of Louis

Consul Kins David
This amusing anecdote of Lamartine
is related by the Baroness Bonde in
her volume of letters Shortly after
the revolution of February he wrote
on the blank leaves of his pocketbook
the names of his protegees and sent
the list to be provided with places im
mediately Previously however it
seems he had scribbled David on
the page and the head of the cabinet
appointed the said David consul at
Bremen the postulant however never
came forward and though the poet did
not like being disturbed M netrol
was obliged to ask who was the David
on his list
He who danced before the ark
was the answer
Oh dear I have gazetted him to
Bremen
How very singular I meant him
for a subject for meditation not for
nomination But you can cancel it
The mouiteur registered the chane 3
but few knew that the last consul ap
pointed to Bremen was King David
The Japanese Wjvy
The question of choice between two
vases was decided by a patron In a
Japanese shop when the proprietor
said That smaller vase madam Is
thoroughly Japanese In form and deco
ration That floral pattern in gold
around the upper haif is characteris
tic and so too is the exceedingly nar
row and short neck The vase will hold
but a single blossom that should be
long stemmed and stand upright Thus
the flower will be individualized and
the vase likewise That is the Japanese
