Statistics Since 1909.
As announced in its bulletin, the
New York state department of health
in 1909 began to tabulate the deaths
in the state outside of New York city
and Buffalo, classified by age, sex and
marital conditions BY comparing
these same figures for death with the
figures for population living on the
same area IN 1910 and similarly classi-
fed, as recently published by the fed
eral census bureau. 1t is possible al
most for the first time in this country
to study mortality by marital condi-
tons The comparisons therefore are
made between persons of the same
ages and sexes, some of whom are
married and others of whom have
lived, as they fondly supposed, in sin
gle blessedness.
Here is some of the evidence:

A garage for baby carriages is to be
a feature of the Henry Disston Me-
mortal Methodist church, in course of
construction in Tacony suburb of
Philadelphia. The Rev. Cornelius
Hudson, the pastor, in speaking about
the innovation, said:
1--WE have lots of babies in the con-
gregation, and we thought that If we
built a place where the mothers and
the fathers could keep the carriages
during the service more of them would
attend the services regularly.
1T has been no uncommon sight to
see sixteen or seventeen baby car
riages lined up In front of the church
on Sunday afternoon. We have taken
a census and believe that at least 100
families with their babies will come
