BICYCLES AND TUBERCULOSIS IN
WOMEN.

WOMEN.
At the last quarterly meeting of
the American Statistical Associa-
ton, DR.. S. w. Abbott, secretary
of the Massachusetts, Board of
Health. presented some interesting
figures regarding the proportion Of
pulmonary tuberculosis in females
to that of males in Massachusetts,.
The rate in 1851 was 1,451 females
to /, 900 males; in 1890, 1,O55 fe-
males to 1000 males; and last year
only 874 females to 1000 males.
Last year was the first in the his
tory of the State in which the
number of deaths from phthisis in
females was smaller than that in
males. The fact that uniform
reduction in the rate of female
deaths began ONE five years ago,
about the time when women were
beginning to ride the bicycle ex-
tensively, DR., Abbott considers
significant, and he is inclined to
attribute the decrease in the death
rate to the great increase in open
air exercise among women which
has ueen inaugurated by the use
of the bicycle.-British Medical
and Surgical Journal.

were simple and impressive. The graves
Of the miners were decorated and there
was music. The addresses of the day
were plain talks to the miners, the
principal one being delivered by Presi-
dent Boyce of the Federation of Miners.
His remarks were pacific and there
was nothing in them OF the sentiment
expressed by him in his celebrated
speech al Salt Lake. He dwelt princi-
pally upon the events which eliminated

their lives In the great strike. and his
conclusions were worthy Of the body OF
toilers that he represents. When the
