• The first table, Table I, deals with the comparative results in sana- 

 toria in high and low climates, first and second stage cases combined 

 being alone taken, and the different variety of forms of improvement 

 being grouped under the head of benefited. Of the lowland sanatoria 

 the lowest elevation above sea-level was 1,840 feet, and the highest 

 3,300 feet. Of the highland climates the lowest elevation was 4,150 

 feet, and the highest, 6,000 feet.. The total average percentage of 

 benefited in low climates was 71, and in high climates 86. 



Table II gives comparative results in open resorts in low and 

 high climates. The total average of benefited in lowland climates
