Clean air in the house is as much a
necessity to health as clean water,
and. inasmuch as considerable por-
ton of the air in the house rises from
the cellar, the cellar must be as clean
and pure as it is desired that the
house atmosphere shall be. In the abb
sence of any ventilating system win
dows and doors must do the work of
bringing in and letting out the air. The
impure air must escape to make room
for pure air. Open the windows at
the top as well at the bottom, the
warmer air at the top OF the room will
thus pass out Keep one window on
the top floor open little most OF the
time to provide a general air-escape
for the whole house. When airing bed
rooms in the morning leave the cup
