In the June number of Hunts Mer-
chants Magazine is table of the average
age attained by men pursuing different
occupations. Some Of It's facts are OF
such general interest that we CLEAN them
from ii and present them III chronological
order.
The man that dies youngest, as might
be expected, perhaps, is the railway
brakeman. His average age is only 81.
Yet his must be taken with some allow
ance, from the fact that hardly any but
young and active men are employed in the
capacity.
At same age dies the factory work wo-
man. through the combined influence OF
confined air, sedentary posture, scant wa
ges and unremitting toll.
Then comes the railway baggageman,
who is smashed, on an average, at 80.
Mllliners and dressmakers live but little
longer. Tie average age Of the one is
81, and the other 33.
The engineer, the fireman, the conduc-
tor, the powder maker, the well digger,
and the factory operative, all of whom are
exposed to sudden and violent deaths, die
on an average under the age Of 80.
The cutler, The dyer, the leather dres-
ser, the apothecary, the confectioner, the
cigar maker, the printer, the siLvcrsmilh,
the painter. the shoecutter, the eDgrayer
and the machinist, all of whom lead con-
fined lives in an unwholesome atmosphere,
some of them reach the average age of 40.
The musician blows bis breath all out
Of his no Y at 10. The editor knocks
himself into pi at the same age
Then come trades that are active or in
a purer air. The baker lives 20 the aver
age age of 43, the butcher to 40, the brick
maker 10 II, the carpenter TO 40, the fur
mace man 10 AZ, the mason TO As, the
stone cutter to 43, the tanner 10 40, the
,insmi,h to Il, the weaver 10 IL, the dre-
yer to 30, the cook TO As, the inn keeper
TO 46, the laborer to Al, the domestic ser.
want ,female) TO 43. The tailor lives 10
43, the taiIoress 10 Il.
Why sAould the barber live ill 50, i
NOT to show the virtue there is IN PERSONAL
ncatness and soap and water
Those who average over BAH cehtuzy
among mechanics are those who keep
their muscles and lungs III heahhIW and
moderate exercise, and are not troubled
with weighty cares. The bIacksmi!h

hammers till 81, the cooper till 80, the
builder till 81. the shipwrght till 90, and
the whecIwrght till 80. The miller lives
to be whiened with age as well as -four,
at 6l. The rope maker Iengthens the
threads Of live TO 81. Merchants average
50.
Professional men live longer than is
generally supposed {; litigation kills eli
ents sometimes, but seldom lawyers, for
they average 50. Physicians prove their
usefulness by proIonging their own lives
to the same period. Clergymen, who II
is to be presumed, enjoy a greater mental
serenity than others, last I'll 56.
Sealaring life and its adjuncts, seem,
instead of dangerous, to be actually con
ducive to longevity. We have already
seen that the shipwright lives till 56.
The sailor averages 43, the caulker Gl,
the sail maker II, the stevedorc 81, the
rerrvman 65, and the pilot Gi.
A dispensa,ion ofProvdencc that Maine
law men may consider incomprehensibIe
is. that brewers and disliIIers live TO the
ripe age of 64.
Last and longest lived come paupcrS
G7, and gentlemen 60. The only two
classes that do nothing for themselves, and
live on their neghbors, outIast all the rest.
Why should they wear oul, when they
are always idle
