This table enables a comparison of the proportion of various diseases in private and public practice, which will be found to vary very considerably in some instances. Thus acne forms 20 per cent, of cases in private practice, and only 8 per cent- of those in public practice ; syphilis was pre¬ sented but half as often in private as in public practice; the animal parasitic affections were very seldom seen among private cases, whereas the vegetable parasitic dis¬ eases occurred in about equal frequency in both, etc.
