LONDON. Aug. 3.-AddressIng the
Medico-Lega society on the suicide idea.
DR.. Josiah Oldield said statistics cover
ing large number OF years indicated
that women's lives after thirty-fye were
plessanter and more attractive than mems
In spite of the popular idea that the
young woman was the queen of the earth.
and that at sweet seventeen she had the
world at her feet. it was evidenced that
from the ages of fifteen 10 thlrty-fve
more young women committed suicide
than young men.
After thirty five the burden OF life be-
came so much heavier for men, or life
became so much more rosy for women
that from thirty five to eighty men were
always largely in the majority among
suicides
