obtain it can only arise from igno.
rance or Indifference to bodily health.
| suppose people may still be found
who dread to breathe the might air.
who delight in nice, warm. heavily
curtained rooms. where the sunlight
cannot fade the furniture and the win
ter air is rigidly excluded. l would
invite the attention of such people to
a few simple and easily demonstrated
facts.
Fresh Air Facts.
In the first place. answering the pos
sible query, what has all this talk
about fresh air done for humanity ?" L
would say that it has lowered the
death rate from consumption over 40
per cent in the last thirty years. In
the same period it has reduced the
death rate among people under thirty
years of age about 80 per cent. 1t
has done SO much that cautious. con-
sentative scientific men are looking
forward to complete eradication of
consumption and other communicable
diseases and their Punishment to the
limbo where the "black death" and
smallpox have been driven.
Pure air is composed Of. approx
mately, seventy nine parts nitrogen and
twenty-one parts oxygen. a trace of
carbon dioxide. vapor of water and
minute quantities of other elements
which have no known influence on the
body. After air is expelled from the
lungs it contains. as Priestley first
demonstrated. an increased amount of
carbon dioxide and a reduced amount
Of oxygen.
1t has been estimated that each per-
son requires 5000 cubic feet of fresh
air per hour If the proportion of car
bon dioxide is to be kept below 6 parts
In 10.0O0-the pure air limit
II must not be thought that carbon
diOxide in excess of that quantity is
particularly harmful. If unmingled
with other impurities it may be pres
ent in the proportion OF 10 to 100
parts per 10000 without endangering
life. As usually present in dwelling
rooms, schoolrooms. factories. etc.
however. it is an index of the amount
OF other Impurities exhaled from the
lungs and skin.
Open country air has been found to
Contain only s parts per 10000 car
