According to these statistics the total
population of France is 38,350,7S8. The
female sex exceeds the masculine in
numbers, the figures being, respec-
lively, 1858, 899 and 18,816,8S9. On
the other hand, an excess in the mum
Der of unmarried is shown on the mas
culine side, the respective figures be
9,917,17S and 9,114,356. There are g.
3S4,S97 widows and divorced women,
as against 1,OO5,SS4 widowers and di.
vorced men.
The number Of French families is
9,7S1,117, of which 1,314,773 are with
out children; 2,249,337 have but one
child; 2018,665 have two; 1,246.264
