of a single lion," But though there have been no great exploits for the Lady members to worship and no incidunts of a tensational character such as bave often marked meetings of the British Association, dulness has not been universal. Indeed some of the discussions „have been almost 'lively. This was the casa in, the section where least of all animation is usually looked for-1 mean that devoted th Economie science and statistics. In this department' on Monday theic was quite a brisk discussion of a problein raised in the columns of the Times not long ago by Dean Fre mantle, namely, the decline in our national *birth-rate. The effect of the controversy in the Times was to show that in the opinion of the warthy Dean and others a portion at least of the reduction in question must be attributed to the influence of the propaganda. carried on by the late Mr. Itadinegh and Mrs. Besant. In one of the papers read Before the British Associ-tion the author, Mr. Edwin Canaan, submitted that the decline of natality in this country has not been due to a decline of nuptiality, but to the fact that the average hum1076c) ber of children resulting from each marriage had diminished. From his mode of reckoning, it seems that the ratio or number of children per marrings fell from 4'36 in 1881-54 10:374 in 1899 and about 363 i 1900. The fall in Scot

land from the-same cause was not so great. 1. Cannan prudently retrained from conjec tures as to the causes of this state of things, but Mr..: S. Devas moi boldy attempted an ex-

planation. His idea is that the phenomenon, is due to the decay of religious beliefs. In six cases, be said, in regard to which we had abundant information-namely, Greece, Rome, France, Americu. Avstrálasia, and England, in many ways so unlike the decay of religious beliefs appeared as the one common antecedent

Mill's wish that the working classes should themselves disapprove of large families had been to a great extent fulfilled in England. The chairman of the Section (Sir Robert Giffen) who had--inter- rupted Mr. Devas to point out the irregularity of introducing the religious factor into such a meeting, dissented entirely from that gentle man's conclusions.
