1 Every female height has been transmuted to its male equivalent by multi- 

 plying it by 1*08, and only those families have been included in which the 

 number of adult children amounted to six, at least. 



Note. — "When these figures are protracted into curves, it will be seen — (1) 

 that they run much alike ; (2) that their peculiarities are not in sequence ; and 

 (3) that the curve corresponding to the first line occupies a medium position. It 

 is therefore certain that differences in the heights of the Parents have on the 

 whole an inconsiderable effect on the heights of their Offspring.
