tuition with a hereditary tendency TO
consumption would do well to avail
themselves of an opportunity and come

tuberculosis parents seldom ever have
the disease develop, so long as they re-
main in this climate. 1t is my opinion
that there is no other section of the
United States which will compare favor
able with that in and about Tucson for

Dr. A. {. Jones. of Tucson, said:-"The

study Of the climatic treatment of pull

have devoted to active practice in twoot
the most frequent resorts oi Colorado
and one wear IN this city.

advantages over all the resorts Of gay ac-
