How the Air IL Purified.

Motion, mechanical and molecular,
the great law of the universe, is a nat
ural method for the publication of the
atmosphere. Its power as purifier of
the air is shown mechanically In the
flow of rivers and In the ocean cur
rents. Molecularly 1t serves the same
purpose in the form Of heat, light and
electricity. When not In motion air
stagnates as water does and becomes
offensive and bad, because 1t is easily
impregnated with fine animal and veg
etable dust as well as noxious gases.
Certain physical conditions are always
necessary for the continual movement
of the air. We know that the diurnal
motion of land and sea air brings the
warm days and cool nights as well as
the rain and wind In the tropical re-
gions as the sun rises the heat of the
day increases, and the breeze sets in
from the sea to the land. AS the sun
goes down the heat diminishes, and at
sunset the temperatures of sea and
land are equal. At night again the
breeze Is from land to sea until morn
ing, when the temperature may be-
come equal and the sea breeze return.

SIGHT OF BURSTED SEWER PIPE
CAUSES WOMEN TOCALL FIREMEN

they found the alarm was telephoneo
from the Mozart flats, 309 Buena Vista
street. They interrogated the landlady
Mrs. A. e. Fouch, but that parsonage
stoutly denied sending for the. appara-
tus.
Said to Have Confessed
Finally in giving the third degree"
to the lodgers the officers said they
found Mrs. c. Brandt, woman of in
nocent face and timid manners.
The officers say they extorted a con-
fession from Mrs. Brandt that she tel
ephoned to fire headquarters for sew
eral engines to come to Buena Vista
and Temple streets.
Mrs Brandt said she was not filled
with any great desire to see foam
flecked fire horses come to their abode,
but the officers assert she meekly told
them she was doing the calling for the
landlady, Mrs. Fouch. who was aghast
to see the sewer pipe flooding an ad-
jacent cellar.
Chief Lips referred the whole affair
to the police when he learned two wo-
men were said to be responsible for
the false alarm.
The detectives said they did not have
the heart to arrest the women unless
the performance is encored by them
for some other trifling cause.
