becoming raw aud cold within q few
hours, and as these are atmospheric con-
ditions to be avoided, it would not be
advisable to spend these seasons there.
Those having peculiar type of constr
tuition with a hereditary tendency TO
consumption would do well to avail
themselves OF an opportunity and come
here and remain exempt from disease.
1T is a fact that those born hereof
tuberculosis parents seldom ever have
| the disease develop, so long as they re-
main in this climate. II is my oEinion
that there as no other section OF the
United States which will compare favor
able with that in and about Tucson for
the relief OF pulmonary affections.

opportunities iii the observation and

Texas, New Mexico, Colorado. Caiifor-
mia and Arizona Pive wears of that |
have devoted TO active practice in two of
the most frequent resorts OF Colorado
and one YEAR in this CITY.

/ DR.. A. w. Oicott. health officer of Tue
son, says:--"Thc climate OF Tucson il
characterized by pure, dry, inviguratiue
air; a small amount of rainfall, and an
evcr-shining sun. 1t is surrounded by
mountains which cut off the chilling
winds of winter, and the dreaded SAND
storms Of most arid regions. Its south
ern position gives il mild winter eli
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 numbcrless cures for consumption, ex
plotted monthly, stands first in the con
fdence Of the people and of the medical
profession as the best single means
known Of combating 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.
