A SUMMER HEALTH RESORT.


Ala the Elements Found Here, In
and About Los Angeles.
EBy william H. Dukeman, M. D., Los Angeles
Physicians in search of climatic aid
have been led to send their patients to
the various summer places of note, such
as the Catskill and Adirondack mount
aims of New York; the White mountains
of New Hampshire; Berkshire, Mass. I;
Atlantic City and Long Branch, N. j.;
Aiken, s. g.; Asheville, N. c.; Denver,
COL, and numerous other places at
home, as we'll as many renowned places
abroad. :,
After careful study Of this climate, 1
will attempt to show that we can add to
the list health resort of superior advan-
tages, the Pacific Slope of Southern Cali
fornia, and particularly as q summer re-
sort. A visit to this sunny land Of 3.
section of country lying along the Pacific
Coast, situated between latitude thirty
two and thirty-6ve degrees north, and
between longitude one bandred and
seventeen and one hundred and twenty
degrees west, and comprising portion
Of each of the four counties of San Diego
Los Angeles, Ventura and Santa Bar.
bsra, very favorably impresses the writer
of the superior natural sanitary advan-
tages offered, as being an almost perfect
health resort.
Much has been said and written in
reference to this section of country, as
being q very favorable winter resort
But as summer resort it is far snper-
ior. Both seasons, however, have their
own peculiar advantages, and as winter
resort it has no equal. And Southern
California is rightly termed "the sunny
land" "the land Of blue sky" "the
paradise of the world"
In speaking of this, I have reference
to that slope of land along the coast,
from the city of San Diego to Santa
Barbara, extending eastward for fifty
miles from the coast to what is known as
the Sierra Madre mountains, including
the fertile valleys and undulat.
ing foothills and mountain spurs
until an elevation of 5000 feel
is reached; and in which is contained
the prosperous cities of Los Angeles, Sar
Diego, Pasadena, Santa Barbara, Santa
Ana, etc., and the seaside resorts O
Santa Monica, Long Beach, Coronado
and Catalina island, at which place.
bathing in the surf of the Pacific gives
new charm and zest to our wearied ex
istence.
Let us carefully make note of the fol
lowing tables, as compiled from thu
United States Signal Service Reports o
the Los Angeles station.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1889-10-27

From the above tables we learn thai
the temperature for the warmer six
months is q very few degrees higher
that the colder six months; that during
the heated part of the day the
mercury runs very little higher during
the summer than during the winter
that the mean relative humidity is COM
paratively lower in summer than in
winter; and We have more clear and
fair days, and less cloudy days, and no
rainy days in summer, giving US every
day to be out of doors.
From the above tables we learn that
during the warmer six months we had,
out Of the 1874 days, 100 clear days, IS
fair days, or 1853 sunshine days, and only
Is cloudy days. OF the 16 cloudy days,
only on six different days did rain fall !;
three light showers occurred in daytime,
and three light showers at night. Dur
ing these six warmer months we find
that the highest temperature was only
SO degrees Fahrenheit, and from United
States Signal Service reports I find that
II reached this point but twice, once in
the month of September and once in the
month of October. And on but very few
days did the temperature run up
in the nineties. Generally the tempera.
ture, during the hottest part of the
day rarely reaches 95 degrees Fahrenheit,
and this always occurs between the hours
Of ID q. m. and 2 p. M, after which
there is cool breeze blowing from the
ocean. The heat, therefore, is at no
time oppressive, but tho weather is
always comfortable, always cool in the
shade; and as night approaches it grove
from ten to twenty degrees cooler, max
ing it very comfortable, and necessary at
all times Of the year to sleep under
blankets. As the nights are alwaye
cool, one gets good, restful sleep,
from which he awakes refreshed.
1t is generally remarked that
person requires more sleep
in this climate than in colder one-at
least he is inclined to sleep more, and
the consumptive rests in peace. 1t is to
be noticed that We have no foggy days
But at certain times Of the year, as night
approaches, fog blows in from ths
ocean, and sometimes in the morning We
have high fog, having the appearance
Of being cloudy. The relative humidity
falls - the temperature rises, thus reliev-

"A CONTEST BETWEEN TWO ARMED MoBs"
If this statement is true, he must still admit
that the world never saw such mobs before,
aud the magnificent machine which is really
the creature of his genius could take lessons in
logistics as well rs in endurance from the men
who marched down to the sea or crossed bay
onets and sabers at Franklin and Nashville.
Both Federal and rebel commanders have
passed away. Among the men of his command
who still survive no name calls forth more
hearty cheers than does that of Gen. Thomas,
and mono is more deserving of them. His
adopted State and friends in private stations,
loving bravery for.its own sake, are educating
the orphans of the brave but misguided chief
tain who opposed him.
United in bonds of Fraternity, Charity and
Loyalty, many of those who fought for Ma
ton's life respond with willing hearts and
ready hands to the cry of distress from plague
stricken cities whose streets they once trod
as victors or those ruined by natures forces,
rather than by mans engines of destruction,
and upon lands once overgrown with thorns
and brambles of discord aud war "shall wave
the lilies and the palms of peace"

his life. We have more or less call for them,

them. although once in a while their customers

dealer on Atlantic avenue. He purchases them
from South Boston people. who sell the skinned

them to various customers. In many of the
