on human beings of high attitudes at
the summit of Pixies Peak, IA 147 feet

blood are 40 per cent. greater at that
altitude than at sea level This is an
Indication of purer blood. That lack
of oxygen in the atmosphere at high
attitudes is the primary cause of all
mountaia sickness That the blood OF
persons living in high attitudes is
