It is stated that there . are now 175 qualified medical women in Germany, Particulars as to 135 l of them have been collected by Frau Dr Stelzner. The rcsults of her inquiry show that of that number 78 are unmarried, and 47 married (including fiVe widows). Of the married women 34 have given up practice; two of them, however, who are wives ot doctors, assist and act for their husbands. Considerably more than half the number are married to doctors (says the “British Medical Journal”). Two began their studies after marriage. The women who practise are distributed in the cities of Germany as follows: —Berlin 30, Munich 7, Frankfort-on-the-Main 5, Hamburg 3, Dusseldorf, Breslau, Karlsruhe, Heidelberg, and Bad Bister each 2, while a number of other places have one each. Most of the women doctors in Germany practise as specialists, especially in diseases of women and children. . During the last few years the chances of medical women have steadily become more favourable in Germany. They often secure posts in hospitals, institutes, and asylumsFor Chronic Chest Complaints, Wools' 6ieat Peppermint Cora. Is 6d, *
