BERLIN. Nov I4.-According to
the official municipal insurance bu-
.rears, the number of women now en-
ployed industrially has advanced to
#47.5 per cent of all workers, as
against 2O.6 per cent a little over thir-
ty years ago. 1t rose from 24.5 per
cent in 1907 an average year, to
36.3 in 1914, to APP in 191 5, and to
47.5 in 1916.
Whereas the number Of women
now at work almost exactly equals
the number of men, in some indus
tries female help far outweighs nu-
paper Industries, though the excess
of women employed seems in no man
.ner to have Iessened the number Of
women who are now offering their
services.

are made when Investigating cases OF
communicable diseases that are re-
ported by physicians. says tho Health
Bulletin. The remarks. made usual
Is by the housewife, run something
like this: The doctor told me 1T

case as scarlet fever. which means the
same as scarlatina, but to the latty il
is something different. The doctor
said it was only tonsilitis and sore
throat and not diphtheria. DIph-
iberia was the report made by the
physician, and not only that but he
used diphtheria antitoxin. This in.
itself should be convincing enough to
the parents but they rely on what the.
physician tells them.
Then AMIN quite the opposite is
