. Dr. Evans' How to keep well; . NG THE CURE IN THE CLOUDS In the cure of consumption, climate counts for 15 per cent. If we taketwo men with the same degree of infection, having about the same capacityfor resisting the disease, having about the same amount of money to providerest and open air treatment, submitting themselves to the same degree of con-trol, the man who is in Colorado will stand a 15 per cent better chance thanthe man in Illinois. If the one goes to Colorado without money and takes his chances in the CHASING THE CURE IN THE CLOUDS 87 catch as catch can of what is called ranching it, he will lose more than 15 percent of his chance, and therefore Colorado will net a loss for him. As so many of the people who chase the cure in the West plunge foolishlyinto the venture it is probable that the real value of climate is under 15 percent rather than over 15 per cent. How does climate work the cure? Probably some part of it is due tosunny days, low air humidity, dry soil, and slow winds. Each of these agencies. —.Of • — -i*f Sps-i/cc *>#. rX^mrrnrpr^ •-» 1; i! i! i! 1! 11 ll —t ?* ij ;i \ !i! -Ji- i _ ..! i , -41— L M -.»•-?-=— -j&.— • *-°>—?#
