Portions of the Earth That Apprs.eh
Climatic Perfection :
For an inhab itant of the north tens

10 this, or possibly in consequences ofis
and the purifying effect of the sea
breezes. there is practically no disease
save what the inhabitants are RESPONSE
BILE for. There are many groups of is
lands In the South Pacific which fully
deserve the name of earthly paradise,
but they have tho fault of being too
much like paradise. The valley Of CASH
mere in northern India and Of Quito
In Ecqusdor possess climates which
are almost perfect, but they suffer the
disadvantage Of Q great distance from
the sea. Australia Is too dry and New
Zealand too damp TO approach perfec-
ton; but Tasmania possesses the happy
mean which affords health and comfort
without the danger of degeneration
which Is the penalty Of more luxurious
chimes. OF places near home, the Isle
Of Man probably most nearly falhlls
the conditions Of the question. Al
though so much farther north, its aver.
age temperature is almost as high and
quite as equable as that of the Isle of
Wight, but IL possesses the additional
advantage of freedom from the fogs.
