generally known. that no water can ret into

This can be done as the body IL conveved

For an instant imagine the condition Of
affairs Eacl, atom Of tn. 10 ~ reonir.s ar
terial blood. which Is bL,od purified In the
lungs by exposure to the air breathed. This
puriNcation has been suspended. and 10 that
extent the life Of the body is suspended.
Movements Of the chest, by which air is in
hated, are at 1. stand still, and cannot, of
themselves BIZ resumed. Ii artificial breasn
inc can DO carried out for some time, it will
be seen that these Impurities may be So far re-
moved that naturd, respiration can take place.
Two methods are usually employed for the
purpose-,the first known as sssilyester's
Ready Method
This consists after the above suggestions
have been carried out. in pulling the tongue
forward which better fayors the passage of
air along the base of the tongue into the
tachea (windpipe), and then drawing the
arms away from the stiles Of the body and
upward, SO as to meet over the al by means
OF which the ribs are raised (expansion OF the
chest, by the muscles t,eutoraD running from
them to the arms lie + the shoulder. A
vacuum is thus created / IL lungs the air
PUSHES in, and the blood ia THEN purified by
the passage of the impure gases in the blood
vessels to the air and by giving up by the air
portion Of its oxygen to tle blood. The
arms are now brought down 70 the sides. and
the elbows made to almost meet over what
is called the "pit of the stomach This
produces contraction of the walls of Il . chest
and expulsion Of the impure air from the
lungs.
These two movements constitute an act Of
respiration, and should be persisted in, with
out interruption, at the rate Of about sixteen
to the minute. In other words, each complete
m .vement should occupy about four seconds
which is about the natural rate Of perspira-
tion in health.
