Thirty-third Annual Report of the Secretary of State on the Registration of Births, and Deaths, Marriages and Divorces in Michigan for the year 1899.
หน้า 24 - It is also curious to remark how confirmed either class becomes in its condition in life — how little likely, after a few years, is a bachelor to break through his habits and solitary condition ; and on the other hand, how readily in proportion does a husband contract a second marriage, who has been deprived prematurely of his first partner.
หน้า 24 - ... the chance of a widower marrying in a year is eleven times as great as that of a bachelor. It is curious to remark, from this table, how confirmed either class becomes in its condition...
หน้า 24 - ... habits and solitary condition ; and, on the other hand, how readily in proportion does a husband contract a second marriage who has been deprived prematurely of his first partner. After the age of 30 the probability of a bachelor marrying in a year diminishes in a most rapid ratio. The probability at 35 is not much more than half that at 30, and nearly the same proportion exists between each quinquennial period afterward. It may rightfully be supposed, especially in these days of fashionable...
หน้า 31 - ... by forwarding to him data for further investigation of this interesting subject. He contended that the tables on the chart proved the extraordinary mortality in the early hours of the morning, when the powers of life were at their lowest ebb, and, strange to say, when the patient was least cared for. He urged the necessity of feeding and...
หน้า 59 - Island, are given, and they represent the quarters and halves of the year, the sexes, aud the ages. Hence it appears that diphtheria and croup are most fatal in the fourth quarter of the year, the former in the largest proportion, while scarlatina prevails most in the first quarter; that diphtheria occurs in large excess in the second half of the year, while scarlatina belongs in still larger excess to the first, and croup also in diminished excess. In diphtheria a large excess of females die, as...
หน้า 60 - ... die under five years, and fatal cases scarcely extend to adult life at all ; scarlatina approaches to diphtheria in early fatality, and very seldom occurs after ten years of age. This may be shown at a glance in the following abstract from the Massachusetts returns, those of Rhode Island essentially corresponding with them. It may be interesting to take a view of the geographical...
หน้า 52 - In regard to a common assertion that childhood does not predispose to this disease, -he says: " The mere fact of such numbers of infants being attacked, shows a remarkable aptitude for the disease in early life (not observed in smallpox or typhus,) while, if we estimate the mortality from scarlet fever at only six per cent., the number of persons annually attacked in England and Wales is considerably less than one-half the number of births, so that a large proportion of the adult population must...
หน้า 18 - ... diminution of twenty-two per cent.; while the children of purely foreign or mixed parentage increased from 34 per cent, in 1849 to 56 per cent. in 1863. Nearly one-half of this change took place in the period from 1849 to 1853, and the change has been very gradual since that time. There were 303 cases of twins, and five cases of triplets, making in all 621 children born.

There was no prevailing epidemic during the year, although the number of deaths increased somewhat- notably ; but they were distributed rather uniformly throughout the catalogue of disease. There was, however, a still further increase in the class of Zymotic diseases, being 5-5 per cent. over those of the year 1862. This increase has been constant since 1859, when it was 2547 per cent. of all specified diseases, and is now...
