CURIOSITIES OF "THE CENSUS- TAKING,
WOMEN WHO NEVER GET DEYOND
(TWENTY-FIVE,®]
TAINTED MEAT FOR BAUSAGES' With regard to the general question of allow ing preservatives to be used in articles of food, Dr. Collingridge is strongly of opinion that they are pot only unnecessary but mischievous He draws attention to the following hint given by by the makers of a day antiseptic food preses
Some of the more human aspects of the centus are dealt with in an article in the Evative as follows: pice Revit by Mr. George T. Bisset-Smith, H.W, Regitration Examiner.
The writer mentions that it is in, the matter of age that a slight element of fiction appears now and then lo the schedules for careful study reveals that there are more women of about 25 than can be accounted for. Waman of 25 in 1901 must have been 15 in 1891; but those entered in the returns as as exceed the young | girls of 15, of whom they should be only the
naturally diminished survivors l
"
It may be offered as a pritial explanation, says the writes that Is is looked opon, as the golden age for matrimony, to be older than which means the facing at once the possibility of remaining as old maid; and lu spite of the opening of many occupations and professions to women, marriage seems to be still looked *ppen av the most desirable care,r for womas,
A SCOTTISH CONSCIENCE,
Any person who refuses to give laformation, or who wilfully gives false information at to any of the particolare la the census schedule, is liable to a fios Bot exceeding £5. After all the schedules for Scotland bad been centralised in 1891 a lady, deeply veiled, handed in the sum of £, with balf a crown for acknowledg ment in the "cotsman" mentisning that the bad on ered her age wrongly. This instance, the writer thinks stands alone.
Mt. Bisset-Smith states that as a result part y of increased longevity, but chiefly of the failing birth-rate, our population is becoming an older one, with a decreasing basis for the coming generation. The percentage of boys and girls In under ten has diminished at each census. 1881 it wax 25.7 of the total population in England and Wales; in 1891, 24 ; in 1971 It had fallen to 32.1' and it is safe to say, the writer thinks, that the percentage of sgu will be even les, for the percentage of births bas decreased alificandy in the last decade,
NEW INFORMATION REQUIRED.
An innovation is to be attempted in 1911 by asking the duration of marrings and the number of children barn of the marriage. From the information given in the schedule it should be possible to prepare valuable tables of average axes of patents at the time of the births of their

In summing-up, Dr. Collingridge says: my opinion in all cases where preservatives are added to articles, of food and drink, cut only the nature of the drug used but the amount should be notified to the purchaser. Further, the use of any preservative in milk should be made a penal offence."

HARMFUL EFFECT OF PRESERVATIVES,
ALARMING DISCLOSUSES BY MIDICAL OFFICER.
Some disagreeable facts about me of preservatives in food, especially in milk and in meat preparations, are contained in a repert published last month by Dr. Collingridge, medical officer of hilth to the Corporation of Lados. In two cass arising out of the sale of milk preservatives he recommends legal action. Both samples, he says, coulain ben. 23ats, and a circalac of the most misleading character is issued by the makers of ons of
them.
-::
In the other case & preceivative is sold as "pon-boron in character" and "quita barmless to the youn est infant.,, Dr. Collingridge'says fbat he cannot accept this eccond claim, and he points out that the sample contaics over 12 per. cent, of sodium carbonate, the effect of which in to prevent the milk curdling, but not to pre- nerve it.
The development of the bacteria is in co way bindered by the use of this "preserva ve which must be regarded as harmful, seeing that it permits of a milk being in as advanced stage of decomposition without the appear nce indicating the fact.
