of ich in adult life it is clear that boys are not reareti no zicgersfully as girls. However, thanks to better pre-natal conditions and to the progress in in- fant care far more boys nurvivo now- a-days than they did at the close of the last century.

Again there are certain illnesses which only affect boys and, though their occurrence is only occasional, i cannot be disregarded when one is attempting to explain why fewer baya than gris survive.
As a general rule one can rest as sured that, if the bay baby has an ab. solutely regular routine and protec tion from sudden naise, excitement and visitors, he is likely to have nu excel- lent chance of doing quite as well as his sister.

As your husband is anxious to have someone to share his outdoor hobbles I would advise you to consider adopt- ing a son. You are more likely to be suited quickly and, as his mother, you will probably and the young man's conforting in protective presence
