NOTE .- Individual offices may add to above list of undesirable terms and refuse to accept certificates containing them. Thus the form in use in New York City states: "Certificates will be returned for additional information which give any of the following diseases, without explana- tion, as the sole cause of death: Abortion, cellulitis, childbirth, convul- sions, hemorrhage, gangrene, gastritis, erysipelas, meningitis, miscar- riage, necrosis, peritonitis, phlebitis, pyemia, septicemia, tetanus." But general adoption of the minimum list suggested will work vast improve- ment, and its scope can be extended at a later date.

Statement of occupation .- Precise statement of occupation is very important, so that the relative healthfulness of various pursuits ean be known. The question applies to each and every person, irre- spective of age. For many occupations a single word or term on the first line will be sufficient, e. g., Farmer or Planter, Physician, Com- positor, Architect, Locomotive engineer, Civil engineer, Stationary fire- man, 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) Salesman, (b) Grocery; (a) Forcman, (b) Automobile factory. The material worked on may form part of the second statement. Never return "Laborer," "Fore- man," "Manager," "Dealer," etc., without more precise specification, as Day laborer, Farm laborer, Laborcr-Coal mine, ete. Women at home, who are engaged in the duties of the household only (not paid Housekeepers who receive a definite salary), may be entered as House- wife, Housework, or At home, and children, not gainfully employed, as At school or At home. Care should be taken to report specifically the occupations of persons engaged in domestie service for wages, as Servant, Cook, Housemaid, ete. If the occupation has been changed or given up on account of the DISEASE CAUSING DEATH, state occupa- tion at beginning of illness. If retired from business, that fact may be indicated thus: Farmer (retired, 6 yrs.). For persons who have no occupation whatever, write None.

Statement of cause of death .- Name, first, the Disease Causing Death (the primary affection with respect to time and causation), using always the same accepted term for the same discase. Exam- ples: Cerebrospinal ferer (the only definite synonym is "Epidemie cerebrospinal meningitis"); Diphtheria (avoid use of "Croup"); Typhoid fever (never report "Typhoid pneumonia"); Lobar pneu- monia; Bronchopneumonia ("Pneumonia," unqualified, is indefinite); Tuberculosis of lungs, meninges, peritoneum, etc., Carcinoma, Sarcoma, ete., 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 (secondary or intereurrent) affection need not be stated unless important. Example: Measles (disease causing death), 29 ds .; Bronchopneumonia (secondary), 10 ds. Never report mere symptoms or terminal conditions, such as "Asthenia," "Anemia" (merely symp- tomatie), "Atrophy," "Collapse," "Coma," "Convulsions," "Debility" ("Congenital," "Senile," ete.), "Dropsy," "Exhaustion," "Heart failure," "Hemorrhage," "Inanition," "Marasmus," "Old age," "Shock," "Uremia," "Weakness," cte., when a definite disease can be ascertained as the cause. Always qualify all diseases resulting from ebildbirth or miscarriage, as "PUERPERAL septicemia," "PUERPERAL peritonitis," etc.

State cause for which surgical operation was undertaken.

(Recommendations on statement of eause of death approved by Com- mittee on Nomenelature of the American Medical Association.)

Bronchopneumonia: If primary cause, write the word "primary"; if secondary, givo primary cause.

Certificates will be returned for additional information which give any of the following diseases, without explanation, as the soie cause of death: Abortion, cellulitis, childbirth, convulsions, hemorrhage, gangrene, gastritis, erysipelas, menin- gitis, miscarriage, necrosis, peritonitis, phlebitis, pyemia, septicemia, tetanus.
