A curious fact is that taking the average aga while Londoners marry youugar widows than do men in the provinces, they (the Londoners) marry older eplasters. But whether in London or the country the widow is rapidly falling out of favour, and if anyone is not convinced the following figuras will clinch, the argument

A generation ago (1876-80) in every thread -women who married during the course of the year nearly one-tenth of them were widows, that is ninety-night out of the thousand ; while sow the number is only sixty-four, or one-sixteenth of the whole.
