V.—Sanatoriums for Incipient Consumptives.
The National Association for the prevention of Consumption and other forms
of Tuberculosis publish a List of Sanatoria at their Central Office, 20, Hanover

Medical Directory and other medical publications. The Sanatoria are too
numerous to print here; they attract cases in the earliest stage before the
expectoration of infective sputum has comnunced or is fully established, and
their object is to cure.

There is at present no Special Society for finding or providing open-air
employment for Consumptives on leaving Sanatoriums, Hospitals, or Homes,,
or to work in conjunction with a Society for providing separate bed-rooms at
home for poor Consumptives.
