EARLY MORNING AIR.
Its InyigorntinE Effects Largely DUO
II In Snfd ia Dew

Its InviEorntinE Effects Largely DUO,
1t Is Safd, to Dew.
Most people Mt some time in their
lives probably have risen early enough
to experience the bracing effect given
by filling the lungs while dew Is still
on the grass. So far as analysis goes
the composition of early morning mir is
not different from that of air Mt any
other time. 1t is well to remember,
however, that during the passing Of
night to day and of day to night sew
eral physical changes take place.
There is a fall of temperature Mt sun
set and Il rise again at dawn, and con
sequently moisture is alternately be-
ing thrown out and taken up again,
and 1t is well known that change Of
state is accompanied by electrical phe
nomena and certain chemical mani
festations also. The formation of dew
has probably therefore far more pro
found effects than merely the moisten-
Ing of objects with water.
Dew is vitalizing not entirely be-
cause it is water, but because 1t pos
sesses an invigorating action due part
~, at any rate, TO the fact that it Ia
saturated with oxygen, and it has been
stated that during its formation perox-
ide of hydrogen and some ozone are
developed. 1t is not improbable that
the peculiarly attractive and refresh
ing quality which marks the early
morning air has its origin in this way.
Certain it is that the bracing proper
ty of the early morning air wears off
as the day advances, and 1t is easy to
conceive that this loss of freshness is
due to the oxygen, ozone or peroxide
Of hydrogen, whichever it may be, be-
ing used up.
The difficulty of inducing grass to
flourish under a tree in full leg Awell
known and is generally exrSs VI
saying that the tree dbsuir4 ,oa
ishing constituents of the Sd q g
1t keeps the sunlight away from the
grass and protects 1t frorA rain. II Is
doubtful whethes any-of these expla'
nations is true, tiHc real reason most
probably being, -hat the vitalizing dew
cannot FORM upon the grass under .
tree, wherevls, as a rule, both rain and
light can u zach 1t.
Dew is probably essential to the wei
being oH both plants and animals to ;
grea.ef extent than is known.-New
