expense, or furnished funds at reason
able rates of interest, for the establish
ment of such institutions by munich,
palities or larger administrative COM,
munities. On account of the fact that
tuberculosis OF the lungs Is one OF the
chief causes Of physical impairment,
with resulting loss Of earning power,
the activity OF these insurance institu'
tions in the field OF preventive effort
and cure have been largely centralized
upon this most important disease. The
treatment and care Is without expense
to the patient, who is, however, re-
ouired to have made not less than 200
weekly contributions to the invalidity
insurance fund. In addition to the pa
tents care, financial support IS pro-
vided for the patients family, so as 70
relieve him from personal anxiety ana
bring about the best possible condl'
tons for cure.
There are now 80 public and "a pri'
vate sanatoria for tuberculosis IN the
German empire, with bed capacity OF
14.1s6, and capable Of caring for $4,000
tuberculous patients in year. Thirty
eight of the 80 sanatoria are owned and
maintained by invalidity insurance In
situations. Besides the equipment there
are also % sanatora for children,
school sanatoria, SO forest day and
night camps, sc hospitals and other
institutions, and over 1000 dispen-
saries.
During the year 1910 the invalidity
insurance sanatoria treated 46,717 pa
tents, at cost OF M. 17,472,000 ($4,-
and 1920 women. OF the men, 1913
per cent were restored to wage-earning
capacity. and Of the women, 9O8 per
cent. The number Of wage-earners
treated at the expense Of the invalidity
insuranc societies has increased from
1884 in 1905 to 46,717 in 1910, or TAI
per cent to the end of the second year,

9,6s5,00O to M. 17,472,000, or 80.4 per
cent.
Since the object of the treatment is
to prevent permanent invalidity and in
capacity for work. the value of the
work is measured by the proportion of
sanatorium patients who are able to
earn their living for reasonable per-
iod OF time. Out of 1856 male pa
tents discharged in 1905, records show
that 76 per cent retained their earning
capacity to the end of the first year, 63
81 per cent to the end Of the third year,
4S per cent to the end Of the fourth
year, and "A per cent to the end Of the
fifth year For female patients the re-
suits are better. IS per cent OF them

of the fourth year, and 50 per cent at

The effect of this systematic care Of
tuberculous wage-earners is shown in
the steady decline in the death rate
from tuberculosis in the German en-
pire as a whole. Taking a group of
large German cities, We note that the
death rate from tuberculosis per 10000
population has declined from 34.6 in
1884 to 17.9 in 1900, and that It is now
lower than the death rate of similar
group Of American cities, whose rate in
1910 was 1875.

the white waterlily is its emblem, ana
"pure-heart,' the sentiment accorded
to the name, the spelling OF which
