Even a change from a good to a seemingly less favorable climate may accomplish a certain amount of good. The danger of relapse is greater to those returning from distant resorts after a short sojourn, before they have become thoroughly acclimated or their disease cured or arrested. Suitable and beneficial differences are not infrequently found in climates very near home. Thus, for example, a removal from New York slums to North Brother Island, within the city limits, constitutes a climatic chan...ge beneficent to the majority of indigent cases. In the selection of climate for a tuberculous patient, his likes or dislikes for warm or cold weather, or his possible Idiosyncrasies for high or low altitude, and the presence of chronic dry or moist nasal catarrhs must be taken in con- sideration, those with dry catarrhs usually doing better in relatively moist regions and vice versa. The majority of tuberculous patients (particularly those coming from the laboring classes) should, if at all possible, be treated in climates where they will have to live and labor after their restoration to health.
