formerly paid by the superstitious to
the positions of the moon at the time—
different parts of the body, they sup
posed, being under its influence accord
ing to the zodia-cul sign through which
the planet happened to be passing at
the time.
Exactly how many people there are
5n the world it is impossible to say,
since no census is taken of many popu
lous countries, like China, while the
numberof people who live in the jungles
of Africa can only be guessed at.
As long ago as 1800, llehm, a leading
German authority, estimated the popu
lation of the earth at about one billion
four hundred million.
In 1880, the same authority set the
figures at about a hundred million
more. He did not base this new esti
mate on the natural increase of the peo
ple of the world, but explained that
more accurate figures and estimates
had enabled him to guess more closely.
Two years later Mr. Behm estimated
the earth’s population at twenty-two
millions less than in 18S0, the decrease
being accounted for by the fact that
new investigations lmd compelled the
reduction of the estimated population
of China from something over four bun
dred millions to about three hundred
and fifty millions.
Probably the estimate for the year
1891, made by a learned German statis
tician, is the most nearly accurate of
any yet made—one billion four hundred
and eighty millions.
It is believed that the world's popula
tion is increasing ut the rute of nearly
six millions a year.
The most populous continent is Asia,
which contains two countries—China
and India—whose swarming millions
outnumber the people of all the other
countries of the continent.
The most densely peopled Continent
>s;of course, Europe. The number of
people in Europe is known with n great
degree of accuracy. There are about
three hundred and sixty millions; and
the continent which accommodates all
these people is so small that there arc
upon it an average of ninety-three peo
ple to the square mile.
The people upon the continents of
North and South America, without the
Arctic regions, arc less than one hun
dred and twenty-two million in num
ber, or only eight to the square mile.
When America is ns densely peopled
ns Europe, this half of the world will
have a population of nearly one billion
four hundred million—practically the
same as that of the whole world at'the
present time.—Youth’s Companion.

“Young man.” said the adored one's
father, in a business-like way. “I don't
care anything about your ancestry, and
as for your financial standing I find it
very satisfactory." “Indeed, it's very
kind of you. sir. I'm grateful—” “As
I was saying when you interrupted
me." continued the old man. in a tone
almost severe, “I don't care about those
things, and your character and habits
seem to be quite worthy of approval.”
“Y ou can’t know how glad I am to have
pleased you,” began the happy lover of
father's daughter, only to be
«I«»«» off with: “1 am considering the
matter of offering you a partnership in
our firm.” “You overwhelm me.”
‘‘But there is one question I wish to

‘Anything, anything!” assented the be
wildered youth joyfully. “Is there any

' Not a trace, not a trace,” was the
prompt reply of the delighted chap.
