STANDARD CERTIFICATE OF DEATH.


Statement of occupation. - Precise statement of occu- pation is very important, so that the relative healthfulness of various pursuits ean be known. The question applies to each and every person, irrespective of age. For many occupations a single word or term on the first line will be sufficient, e. g., Farmer or Planter, Physician, Compositor, Architect, Loco- motive engineer, Civil engineer, Stationary fireman, etc. But in many cases, especially in industrial employments, it is necessary to know (a) the kind of work and also (b) the nature of the business or industry, and therefore an additional line is provided for the latter statement; it should be used only when needed. As examples: (a) Spinner, (b) Cotton mill; (a) Sales- man, (b) Grocery; (a) Foreman, (b) Automobile factory. The material worked on may form part of the second statement. Never return "Laborer," "Foreman," "Manager," "Dealer," etc., without more precise specification, as Day laborer, Farm laborer, Laborer - Coal mine, etc. Women at home, who are engaged in the duties of the household only (not paid House- keepers who receive a definite salary), may be entered as Housewife, Housework, or At home, and children, not gain- fully employed, as At school or At home. Care should be taken to report specifically the occupations of persons engaged in domestic service for wages, as Servant, Cook, Housemaid, etc. 1 If the occupation has been changed or given up on account of the DISEASE CAUSING DEATH, state occupation at beginning of illness. If retired from business, that fact may be indicated thus: Farmer (retired, 6 yrs.). For persons who have no occu- pation whatever, write None.


Statement of cause of death. - Name, first, the DIS- EASE CAUSING DEATH (the primary affection with respect to time and causation), using always the same accepted term for the same diseasc. Examples: Cerebro-spinal fever (the only definite synonym is "Epidemic cerebro-spinal meningitis"); Diphtheria (avoid use of "Croup"); Typhoid fever (never re- port "Typhoid pneumonia"); Lobar pneumonia; Broncho- pneumonia ("Pneumonia," unqualified, is indefinite) ; Tuber .


culosis of lungs, meninges, peritonaeum, etc., Carcinoma, Sar- coma, etc., of ............................... (name origin: "Cancer" is less definite; avoid use of "Tumor" for malignant neoplasms) ; Measles; Whooping cough; Chronic valvular heart disease; Chronic interstitial nephritis, etc. The contributory (second- ary or intercurrent) affection need not be stated unless in- portant. Example: Measles (disease causing death), 29 ds .; Broncho-pneumonia (secondary), 10 ds. Never report mere symptoms or terminal conditions, such as "Asthenia," "An- aemia" (merely symptomatic), "Atrophy," "Collapse," "Coma," "Convulsions," "Debility" ("Congenital," "Senile," etc.), "Dropsy," "Exhaustion," "Heart failure," "Haemorrhage," "Inanition," "Marasmus," "Old agc," "Shock," "Uraemia," "Weakness," etc., when a definite disease can be ascertained as the cause. Always qualify all diseases resulting from childbirthli or miscarriage, as "PUER- PERAL scpticaemia," "PUERPERAL peritonitis," etc. State cause for which surgical operation was undertaken.


Cases for the Medical Examiners. - Under the provi- sions of chapter 24 of the Revised Laws deaths under the fol- lowing conditions must be referred to the Medical Examiners:


1. Deaths following injury or violence, as Burns, Falls, Drowning, Gas poisoning, Suicide, Homicide, etc.
