Health is indeed most welcome to any one
after having suffered the agonizing strug-
gle for breath which is characteristic of
the spasms peculiar to this trouble.
Asthma, some have considered a climatic
trouble, but this is true only to a very
slight extent. Those who change climate
in the hope of relief are nearly always
disappointed.
