An address on The fertility of the various social classca in England and Wales from the middle of the 18th century to .1911 was given in the roots of the Royal Statistical Society recantly by Dr. T. . C. Stevenson, auperintendent of Statistics (ieneral Register Office Sir Bernard Maile ex-President of the Society, presided
The Lecturer said it seemed likely that large families promoted high mortality. and that high mortality promoted large families. I was, evident that the decline
in infant mortality during the present
century was diesely bound up with the decline in the birth-rate. It was therefore all the more discreditable to the last quarter of the 19th century that during that period the rate of infant mortality did not decline, although the birth-rate was steadily falling. In the deficient fertility of the classes which, having

The correspondence in time. between the date of the Brad' sugh-Besant correspondence (1876) and the cominence men, of fall in the birth-rate in 1877 bad always been obvious, and the subsequent record of the decline was in fact precisely what might be expected on the supposition that it had been brought about through the neo-Malthusian views and methods having secured gradually increasing acceptance.
MIDDLE-CLASS INFERTILITY","
After all allowances had been made, the professions, which formed the purest examples of middle-class occupations. Were exceedingly infertile. The total fertility
of all the professions tabulated, except Nonconformis ministers, was underponth the lowest standard, though their very small rate of child mortality caused the. clergy of the Established Church slightly to exceed that standard in regard to effec tive fertility. The exceptionally low figures for naval and military officers might be due to circumstances in their case rendering the maintenance of a family specially difficult, but the failure of this fine stock to reproduce itself was none. the less to be regretted.
The most remarkable instance of nil was that of persons describing themselves as of
private mentis. In their case, presum ably
the anxieties und difficulties which militated against fertility were At A minimum. The reason might conceivably be that the more energetic and capable of the class referred to did foliow, nome definite occupation, and that their fertility was higher than that of the inferior re- mainder of their class.
The effect of feriale occupation in lower- ing fertility was clearly established. If

Such is the opinion of the French, dramatists, who find that they, with a mere 19.16 15 per cent in their royalties, re to make losy out of their work than the State. If without disres pect to their art, and their eminence we may use our national idiom this de seein to be killing. the "grese which i lay "the golden eggs. The dramatiste... prefer to my that it will ruin the future of French dramatic art.", Now this is a very serious matter, not only for the dramatists, not only for France, but for the civilised world. Her dramatic art is one of her staple industries, one of her most valuable export trades, and upon her output depends the health, wealth, and happiness of many a theatrical manager, many a syndicate, from China to Pera. But while anxious that drama tists should be satisfied we canno; approve their policy. They have resolved, to negotiate with the theatrical trade unions in order that common action may bẹ taken if the new tax voted. So Paris und the world, which in this matter, are synonymous terms, are theatened with a strike of dramatista. That way lies dissatis the dallosterists of the hair, which have been
