The Jews.

The Revue Scientifique shows by some acccrately-culled statistics that the Jews as a race bear the greatest immunity from epidemic diseases, and attributes the fact solely to their well-regu-lated manner of living, their choice of professions, which are neither fatiguing nor liable to expose them to the inclemency of the seasons, their moderate customs in drinking and eating, the austerity and severity of their personal habits, their close family relations, and the custom of early marriage.
