The mortality experience of the Mutual Li Lasuradce Company of New York is given up to policy anniversaries in 1889, on the lives of those who, beginning with the year iRyg, had stated in their applications that they were tored abitilssen from the use of alcoholic beverages, and for somewhat longer paried the 'ex- perience is given on the lives of those who had [stated that they were moderate drinkers of such beverages. Comparing the two, it is shown. that the death rate among non abstainers was 35 per cent. higher than among abstainers.

Some statistics of English-and-Scotch life assurance companies fully confirm the con. clusion which may fairly be adduced as to the value of total abstinence in tending to lessen the rate of mortality among assured lives," says Mr. Vin Cize...
