TIME greatest peril for those who
ascend TO great attitudes is not
- that of falling, but that of being
suffocated, like fish taken out Of water!
1t was the climbers of high noun
tains who first discovered the fact that
II is often difficult for men to breathe
at height of from two and a half to
three miles above sea level. The late
Edward Whymper, the conqueror OF
the terrible MatterhOrn, made many eX-
periments on this, and he concluded,
after climbing Chimborazo and other
huge peaks in the Andes, that the
cause Of mountain sickness" as the
trouble was called, was due both to
the Iessened value of air that is in
spired at such attitudes and to the ex-
pansion Of the gases contained within
the body, producing a pressure upon
the internal organs.
But more recent study has shown
that the difficulty arises mainly from
the comparative lack of oxygen in the
upper air. and that this may be over

extra oxygen to the lungs.
The two principal constituents OF the
atmosphere are oxygen and nitrogen.

started from Lamotte- Breuil in France,
! and attained an elevation OF nearly 3d.
900 feet, or six and a quarter miles,
and yet they did not suffer at all, and
came down in perfect condition, and
exulting in their great feat!
Their success and immunity from
| suffocation were due to the fact that
they took with, them the apparatus
shown in the accompanying photograph
A Wonderful Picture.
This consists of an alright vessel
filed with compressed oxygen. A mask
which can be fitted closely over the
nose and mouth is connected by a tube
with the reservoir of oxygen. There
is a pressure gauge which enables the
aeronaut to measure the quantity of
oxygen remaining in the reservoir, and
there is also device by which to reg
ulate the amount flowing through the
tubes. Thus they could take just as
much oxygen as they needed and no
more. The rate of supply varied from
two quarts per minute to ten. The res
ervoir contained about 1900 quarts.
They began to breathe the oxygen
when at height of about 1000 feet.
The method of using the apparatus is
shown in the photograph. which was
taken by Senouque, showing Bienaime
and Schneider. with their breathing
masks on, at the very time when they
were at the top OF their flight, more
than six miles above the earth!
Similar apparatus has recently been
carried by mountain climbers, and by
the pilots of aeroplanes ascending to
great attitudes. With the rapid prog
ress of aerial navigation IT will become
indispensable in the future

safely make a voyage of discovery in

animal respiration. Oxygen, on the
other hand, is very active gas, which,
when breathed. supports animal life
When mixed, as near the earth's sur
face, in the proportion of about four
volumes of nitrogen to one of oxygen,
the air is respirable, and the inertness
of the nitrogen does no harm. But il
the proportion of oxygen is reduced the
air becomes sitting.
Now, oxygen is heavier than nitro
gen in ratio of about eight to seven.
and in obedience to the law that heav-
Ter substances sink lower than lighter
ones. the oxygen thins out as the
height above the ground increases,
until its proportion to the nitrogen be-
comes considerably reduced. Above
three or four miles the amount of oxy-
gen is so much diminished that breath
ing becomes very difficult. and at still
higher attitudes respiration may cease
entirely
A Tragedy.
A very tragic instance Of the effect
thus produced is furnished by the
story of the famous balloon ascent
made in April, 1878, by CASTOR Tis-
sander, Croce spinelli and Signor sivel.
They assembled from La Villette in
France, in the balloon Zenith" to a
height of 1920 feet. or a little more
than five and one-third miles. The
thinness of the air, and as we now
know, the relative lack Of oxygen,
killed Spinelli and Sivel, and nearly
cost the life Of Tissandier.
To show what modern science and
invention have done to avert this peril

am decidedly in love with her.
She (the one who wrote the let

her attentions on me. / myself

ton and do not like her, Do you

of my lover if l showed the other
friend this favor just to be po-
lite? M. b.
You letter is rather ambiguous, as
YOU do not state the nature Of the
favor
If of such a nature 1t would cause
trouble between you and your sweet

thought should be of her.
And please see to it that the other
