Above this ventilstor is placed . reservoir containing about . gallon of liquid. giycerine, soap and plain water.
 The flow of this Is regulated to about a quart an hour and when 1t falls in drops upon the vsnes of the fan it fs by rapid movement sprayed upon the inside Of the cylinder.
 This spray gathers all the dust and mi- crobes which may enter through the win dow behind the ventilator. and then goes down the sides of the cylinder and is re- ceived into receptacle fixed fer it below. It Is claimed that the machine captured 100000 microbes in four hours at a recent test in Paris.
