ADVISES CONSERVATIVES
TO 90 TO
FLORIDA IN WINTER.

Having for the last thir,y.fve years devoted
my whole time and attention TO the study OF
lung diseases and consumption, feel that
understand fully the course that ought u be pur-
sued 10 restore tolerably bad case Of diseased
lungs 10 healthy soundness. The fr,t AID
most important step is ioI tie patient TO AVOID
taking cold, and the best OF all places on this
! continent for this purpose in winter, is Florida,
well down IN the State. where the temperature
is regular, and not subject TO such variation as
in m re Northern larudeS. Pala!ka is point
can recommend. A good hotel is kept there by
! Peternan. Last winter ! saw several persons
there whose lungs had been badly diseased, bu,
who under the healing influence Of The climate
and my medicines, were getting well.
One hundred miles further down The river is
point which wou!t prefer 70 Pala'ka, as the
temperature Is more even and the air dry and

jacksonville, HlbernIa, Green Cove, and many
oiber Plac : IN various parts OF Florida, can be
safely recommended 10 consumpli.cs in winter.
My reasons for saying are thu: patients
are less liable 10 take cold there than
where there is less even tempera ure
and It IS rot necessary 10 say that con.
sumplVe person exposes himself to frequent
colds he is certain to die shortly. Therefore
my advice is, 60 well down int, tre state out
