The giant amused himself during the
ride by climbing up the wjhipstock to
the end and then hanging to the snap
per.
The twelve boys were waiting on
"the f1ats"'for Gilbert and Jack. They
had heard about the tiny giant and
they wanted to see an exhibition of his
strength.
First Gilbert lifted him up on the
palm of his hand and let all the boys
feel his muscles. His biceps were
about the size of young currants; but
O, how hard they were and how they
swelled and subsided when he raised
and let fall his stocky little arm! He
was plainly very proud of his strength
and delighted to be made so much of
by the boys. When he had been a
big giant he had been hated and all
his neighbors had taxed their wits to
find some way to kill him, but here were
a lot of fine, manly boys who thought
he was great fun and who fed him and
went in swimming with him and We're
now going to let him show what he
could do in the way of pulling.
Gilbert had made a breast harness
out of the leather i'm an old bean shoot
er and he fixed it over the giants
shoulder. Then he fastened the cord to
It.
Two or three of the boys had piled
into the wagon.
Here, get out of that" said Gilbert.
1--WE don't want to strain the giants
muscles. Jack and / had hard time
pulling the wagon here. except down
the hills, and so you fellers pile out"
But the giant curled his tiny lips, and
said Don't you be afraid of hurting
my muscles. If the wagon is strong
enough, can pull every one who can
perch on it,
That was enough. There were twelve
boys. and they scrambled into that
wagon until 1t was so full of legs that
a grasshopper wouldn't have found a
place for one of his.
"All aboard" shouted the giant.
Then he pushed forward the way an
OK does. bent down to II, and pulled
that heavily loaded Concord wagon as
easily as IL he had been his natural

with very light swans down.

ADVENTURES OF
THE TINY GIANT
(Author Of Yankee Enchantments,' >
etc, etc.)

THE TINY GIANT DEVELOPS TWO
HORSE POWER.
After the giant had been made tiny
again Gilbert realized what a risk had
been run in allowing him to grow to
his full size and he resolved never to
fail to give him his powder at the
proper time. The giant had sprinkled
the parched farms with the lake water
and had in this way saved the crops,
but he had not done it from any wish
to do good. He had always gloried
in being bad giant and he was sorry
enough when he found himself but four
inches high, that he had let an oppor-
tunity for doing mischief pass by un-
improved.
Still Gilbert had such a pleasant way
with him that the giant could not re-
main bad tempered long and after the
boy had smuggled some food out to
him in the barn he decided that being
tiny giant was not so bad after all,
as his wants were supplied without any
trouble to himself.
Gilbert did not say word about the
giant to his father and mother as he
did not wish to bother them. His
mother was a very nervous woman
who hated giants in any form. either
tiny or otherwise, and his father did
not believe in giants. OF course, 1 don't
mean that he did not believe that there
were giants, but he did not approve of
them. He and all the other farmers
of Hardingville supposed that their
crops had been saved by showers and
they wondered what had made the lake
so low in such a very short time. The
fish had hardly enough water to swim
about in and the boys of the neignpor-
hood went down with buckets and pals
and baskets and Shoveled up rock bass
and black bass and perch and pickerel
weighing all the way from four ounces
to four pounds.
The wizard who had left the giant in
Gilbert's charge had told him to feed
him thirty powders at noon of thirty
days, after which he would remain
tiny for life, but if he failed to give
a powder at the proper time the giant
would resume his natural size.
Gilbert made up his mind to take
care that he got all the other pow
ders and he gave Jack Sherman a
thrashing for spilling the first powder.
That evening the tiny giant said he'd
give the boys of Hardingvifle, an exhi-
bition of his strength. So Gilbert took
the shafts off of a Concord wagon and
fastened good strond cord to the cross
bars. Then he and Jack Sherman, who
had made up, pulled the wagon down
to "the fats" road that ran as level

Wbere the Climate is pure
Hnd the Hlr is Balmy.@

Exceedingly Small RainfaIl.-At Tue
son the rainfall for the whole year is only
about eleven inches. Some years it is
not even as much as that. During the
nine months, October to June inclusive,
1S94-5 there were but ttwentY-6vecl cloudy
days and nine of those were in one
month
Ter-perature.-During the months OF
tune, July and August the average tenn
oerature is about 80 degrees, but there
SO little humidity in the atmosphere
that no inconvenience is experienced.
There being but limited irrigation in the
leighborhood of Tncson there is no
humidity produced in that way, as is
notably the case in the neighborhood of
Phoenix, where agricultural develop
ment has through the aid of irrigation
reached great stage. The fall, winter
and spring months can be compared
with the Italian CLINE Flowers bloom
during the entire winter months.
Wonderful Dryness OF Climate.-There
Is nothing more remarkable about the
climate of Tucson than it's dryness. 1t
is phenominal. There is no such thing as
what is called sultry weather as in the
east. A recent visitor to Tucson Joking
ly remarked that mot even the rains
seemed damp" 1t is fact that the ef-
feet of heavy shower is observable for
but a few hours. In this drv climate
sunstrokes are unknown. The dry air
induces exceedingly rapid evaporation of
the abundant perspiration. AS a mat
ter of course the supply of fluid must be
maintained, hence one drinks a great
deal of water here.
Good Water at Tucson.-Evervone is
aware of the Importance of good water,
and this Tucson certainly has. More
over. there are two ice factories which
supply any quantity of beautiful ice.
Effect of dry Climate on Temperature.
Another effect of the extremely dry eli
mate is that the sensible temperature is
tar less than that recorded by the ther.
mometer would indicate. Some claim
that there is difference of as mach al
fifteen degrees between the sensible tenn
perature and that recorded by the ther-
mometer.
Climate the Only Cure for Pulmonary
Disease It is admitted that no medical
treatment has yet been discovered that
will cure pulmonary consumption. The
only cure is that of climate, and in Tue
son the warm dry atmosphere seems to
be especially efficacious. AS to the special
advantage which it's climate offers for
the relief and restoration of those suffer
ing from pulmonary complaints, note
what different prominent physicians of
the city saw:
DR.. w. B. Purcell, County Physician,
Observes:-"It is an undisputed fact that
proper climatic conditions give the
greatest relief to those affected with or
having tendency to phthisis.

SsLocation of Tucson.-Im on
the line of the Southern Pacific R. r. in
the Southern part of the Territory of
Arizona, and on the edge of the Santa
Cruz Valley, lies the City of Tucson.
That it was first settled several centur-
les ago has little to do with what we
have to say here, but yet it's story full
of adventure and romance lends an in
describable charm to the old town.
Evidences of Thr1ft.-Its antiquities
are, however, fast disappearing before
the march of progress. The adobe walls
that formed the battlements of the old
Mexican Pueblo have crumbled away
and the mission ruins are falling to
pieces. Prominent public buildings,
churches, stores and handsome modern
residences have been erected with beauti-
full gardens, flowers and shrubbery sur
rounding many of the latter. Old streets
nave been graded, new ones laid out, and
other improvements<made which give a
thrifty appearance to the city.
Foreign Element-Of its population,
however, consisting of about ten thou
sand people, a large Mexican element re-
mains, and its presence gives foreign
air to the community as also do the
adobe buildings in which they mainly
dwell.

OF Tucson is about 2,400 feet above the
sea, and this by the way seems a medium
altitude particularly suited to those suf-
fering from such Diseases.

bpat1ents should be sent to the arid re-
gions so soon as there is evidence of irl-
tection from the tubercle bacillus, and
should be made to remain there until
they are well, or until it is apparent that
the case is hopeless.
MANY physicians in the east order
patients to California for the winter,
apparently with view of sending them
to dry climate. The relative humidity
in southern California is as great, and
IN some instances greater, than that o.
the Atlantic coast, and many of the best
physicians in California regularly send
their tubercular and asthmatic patients
to Tucson. California is a beautiful
country, but the fogs which come in
rom the sea, and the emanations from
the vast irrigated regions, make it far
inferior to the inland desert regions for
phthIsical patients. think it may be
assumed as a general rule that wher-
ever there is irrigation there is a high
degree of relative humidity. and patients
suffering from pulmonary phthisis
should never be sent to an irrigated dis
trict. Indeed, some of the California
physicians have declared that irrigation
and malaria go together
"The city OF Tucson has. in my opin-
ION, advantages as a health resort
which can not be equailed anywhere in
North America. know of no locality
where such a moderate winter climate
and such a low degree of relative humid
ity are combined with tie same latitude
and altitude. 1t rs no longer considered
imperative to send tubercuiar patients
to an altitude of 5000 feet, or over. In
fact, clinical experience has proven that
more frequently patients required to be
sent to an altitude or less, rather than
more than 5000 feet. The altitMde of
Tucson is g 400 feet. and that seems to
be amply high for all but the most ex-
ceptional cases. The city is situated in
a basin near the underground Santa
Cruz river. 1t is completely walled in
by massive mountain ranges. To the
north is the Santa Catalina range; to
the east, the Rincon; to the south, the
Santa Rita; and on the west, the Tue
son. Each of these ranges has an alti-
tude of 1000 feet at least. Mount Lee
mon, the highest peak of the Catalinas,
has an elevation of 10000 feet, and
Mount Wrightson in the Santa Ritas.
reaches an altitude of nearly 1,0O0
feet.

sive as anywhere in the Rocky noun
tains, and the gorgeous sunrise and sun

During the nine months, October to

twenty-five cloudy days, and nine Of

DR.. A. w. Olcott, health officer of Tue
son, says:-"The climate of Tucson is
characterized by pure, dry, invigorating
air; a small amount of rainfall, and an
ever-shining sun. 1t is surrounded by
mountains which cut off the chilling
winds of winter, and the dreaded sand
storms of most arid regions. It's south
ern position gives it a mild winter cli-
mate. These conditions render pleasant
an out-ofdoor life the entire year, and
permit those suffering from lung and
bronchial diseases daily exercise and life
IN the open air. This treatment, in spite
of numberless cures for consumption, ex
plotted monthly, stands first in the con-
tidence of the people and of the medical
profession as the, best single means
known of fcombating the dread disease,
tuberculosis. The out-of-door life, with
proper medical treatment, has afforded
relief to numbers of sufferers who are be-
yond hope of cure, and cured many in
the earlier stages of consumption.

DR.. H. W. Fenner, of Tucson, Surgeon
of the Southern Pacific K. R., says
Tucson is a city of 1O,0 900 inhabitants,
on the main line of the Southern Pacific
Railway, altitude 2 400 feet above the
sea level. Tucson is one of the oldest
settlements made by the Spanish con-
querors. 1t is now the commercial and
railroad center OF Southern Arizona. The
climate is exceedingly dry and bracing,
the humidity being exceedingly low; the
yearly minimum and maximum being
260 and $50 respect lively. The rainfall
is small and but little irrigation is car
ried on. The water supply is excellent.
The summers are long, the thermometer
ranges high, but the low degree ofhumid-
ity makes the clear warmth tolerable,
and the most healthful part of the year.
Sunstrokes and heat prostrations are
unknown. The climate of Tucson has
been found bv experience to be particu1-
arly beneficial to most cases of pulmon-
ary phthisis, especially those of the
earlier or pre-tubercular periods.
DR.. Mark A. Rogers, of Tucson, says:
My experience has impressed upon
me the necessity for outdoor life in the
treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis. In
order that the patient may live contin-
uously in the open air for period ofsev-
eral months, or, for that matter, for a
year, or several years, climate is re-
quired which is continuously warm and |
dry. Such a climate the United States
does not possess, but the nearest ap-
proach to it is Arizona.
