FIRST BORN LONG LOVED.
Oldest Members of Families larry the
Longest on This Earth.

1t is perhaps nothing new TO some,
but will interest others, to learn that
the first born of parents have much
longer average of life than their
brothers and sisters who come after
them. This fact is demonstrated by
statistics collected by life insurance
companies. Longevity is also said to
be hereditary Said an instance man
the other day:
'Some persons have bar der consti-
tutions than others and they are apt
to transmit them tn their children.
A man both of whose parents were
long lived has a promise of good
old age himself This, of course. is
an old story. A much less familiar
principle affecting the duration of
life has been presented by NJ IS Mary
Boston of Camh' idge and Prof. Karl
Pearson. of LCnaou in brief Derlod
ical called Riometrika.
A compar. son was made between
the lengths OF the lives of two adult
brothers or two adult sisters to ascer

ence between the older and younger
members of a pair. The figures here
given represent average OF over
J, 900 cases. and hence would seem to

investigation belonged TO the Society
of Friends. That organization placed

Beeton and Professor Pearson
''It thus appears that the average
age of the elder brothers was 5S. So

the selder sisters. 90 924, and the
younger sisters. So 667 There is
difference OF over four years IN favor

made that included minors with
