From the New YORK American.
If the people of the United States were
properly instructed in the science of self
preservation, the length of life of the
average person might be prolonged IA
years. according to statistics prepared in
urging the establishment of the new
United States health service. That is to
say, out of our 91,000,0o0 population $780,
600 who die annually might have their
lives prolonged. II,
The money loss due to this state OF
affairs amounts to about 81 900 900 900 YEAR
