It seems, says London Truth, that have stolen from the Irish the ancient name of O'Morchoe and substituted for it a base English counterfeit in the shape of "MurpLy." At last one of thi- i Rev. Thomas Arthur MjcMurrougb Murphy, rector ot Kilternan, has Jeter- mined to have back the ancient family property. lie now culvert i'-es i the press he has for and on behalf of himself, his childien and de'cerrlants renounced, relinquished and r'-amloned "my said newer or but hitherto always by used, i.aoe oT Murphy, and that instead theieof he levives his ancient and true name of O'Morchce.

Some curious figures have lately been made public by a celebrated Berlin physician, which seem to point to the fact that if a man wants to live long and preserve his health and strength he ought to marrj.

Among unmarried men between the ages of 30 and 45, says Spare Moments, the death rate is 27 per cent. Among married men be- twrten the same ages it is only 18 per cent. For 41 bachelors who live, to be 40 years of age, 73 married men triumphantly Hi-rive at the same period. The difference gets all the more marked as time goes on. At 60 years of oge there are only 22 bachelors to 48 married men; at TO there are 11 bachelors to 27 who were married, and by the time they reach 90 the married men are three to one, for there are nipo of them to ercry three bachelors!

Men may talk of their lives being shortened by 4omestie worries and anxieties and cares. That is all rubbish. Statistics m-nst tell the truth, and these statistics of the Berlin doctor say that the man who is a bachelor stands in far greater ridk ot a shortened span. DOES WEALTH DISPEL LOVE?
