More Dangerous Than Sewer Air,

Some recent comparative analyses, made
at Dundee, Scotland, of the air of sewers and
that of the close rooms Of some of the well
inhabited houses of the city, turned out to
the advantage of the sewers. That is, the
analysts found in small and i'll ventilated
houses more carbonic acid, more.organic mat
ter, and far more micro-organisms than in
the sewer air they examined; SO that, if the
experiments were to be taken as final and
conclusive, the inhabitants of n small room
would improve their position by living in the
atmosphere of sewerl The experiments
are, of course, not to be thus taken; but it is
easy to'conceive of cases in which the infer
ence would be correct. The lesson to be
drawn from it would be, not that sewer air
is less dangerous than it is thought to be, but
an admonition Of the necessity for improving
the sanitary condition Of some houses. -Popu-
