"Win1ows open more would keep

quantity of fresh air is spoiled and rem
dered foul by the act OF breathing. A
man spoils not less than a gallon every
minute. In eight hours breathing a
man spoils as much fresh air as seven
teen three-bushel sacks could hold. If
he We're shut up in a seven feet
broad, eve feet long, and seven feet
high. the doors and windows fitting so
tightly that no air could pass through,
he would die, poisoned by his own
breath, in a few hours in tw~enty-four
hours he would have spoiled all the air
contained in the room, and have con-
verified it into poison. Reader, when
YOU rise morning. lust 90
out of doors for five minutes, and OBJ
serve carefully the freshness of the
air. That air is in the state in which
