Ho they fie earlier than married men?" asked a single man. "It would seem so. I was just reading a report which seems to argue strongly in favor of the matrimonial idea. The rejiort shows that the mortality among bachelors from the age of thirty to forty-live years is said to be 27 per cent, while among married men of the same age it is IS per cent. For forty-one bachelors who attain the age of forty years there are seventyeight married men w ho attain the s ame age The difference is still mae striking in persons of advance] age. At sixty years of age there remalu but twenty-two bachelors for forty-eight married men. at seventy years eleven bachelors for twenty seven married ii.es ami nt eighty years thus- bachelors for nine rnarriisl men.
