RULES OF PRACTICE
The fulfillment of the purpose of these laws calls for the observance of the following rules of practice :
(1) Attending physicians will certify to sucb deaths only as those of persons to whom they have given bedside care during a last illness from disease unrelated to any form of injury.
(2) Board of Health physicians will certify to sucb deaths only as those of persons who, though disabled by recognized disease unrelated to any forum of injury, have died without recent medical attendance or whose pby- sician is absent from home wben the certificate of death is needed.
(3) Medical Examiners will investigate and certify to all deaths sup- posably due to injury. These include not only deaths caused directly or indirectly by traumatism (including resulting septicemia), and by the action of chemical (drugs or poisons), thermal, or electrical agents, and deaths following abortion, but also deaths from disease resulting from injury or infection related to occupation, the sudden deaths of persons not disabled by recognized disease, and those of persons found dead.
Statement of Cause of Death .- Cause of death means the disease, or complication wbich causes death, not the mode of dying, e. g., heart failure, asphyxia, asthenia, etc. As principal cause name the disease causing death. As related causes, name earlier morbid conditions, if any, related to the principal cause and any important complication of the principal cause.
Statement of Occupation .- Precise statement of occupation is very im- portant, so that the relative healthfulness of various pursuits can be known. Make some entry in this section for every person aged 10 years or over.

If the deceased had retired from business, report the usual occupation prior to retirement. Children not gainfully employed may be returned as at school or at home. For a woman whose only occupation was that of home bousework, write housework. For a person engaged in domestic service for wages, how- ever, designate the occupation by the appropriate terms, as housekeeper- private family, cook-hotel, etc. For a person who bad no occupation whatever write none.
