Pure Air at Hand.
Capt. Brown. however, has gone
moro thoroughly into the strictly ther-
apeutic aspect of the subject, and in
the NotiondI Repielo for the current
year he has pointed out the possible
advantages of such a course OF treat
ment. His primary object apparently
is to emphasize the fact that II is

but the development of the giant air

Let us look at the essential differ

to estimate the possibilities, if any,
Of their utilization as a curative

Absolute freedom from germs, a con-
siderable difference in pressure, and a
degree Of motion and an immensity Of
volume that can rarely, if ever, be
obtained on the earth. Take the
point of the germ free atmosphere
first. Here, just above our roofs
and within minute or so of our

been estimated at 400 cubic feet in a

Five Million Air Cells.
. Further, by way of revealing more Of
our pulmontry functioning, the essay
explains: "The number OF air cells in
the lungs Is estimated at 5,000,0 900 or
100000, and their surface at about
twenty square feet. The epithelium or
membranous film between the blood
and air Is exceedingly thin, and in
many parts the capillaries are exposed,

both sides. The weight of air inhaled
In the course of the day is seven or
eight times that of the food eaten.
The mechanical work of brea thing
represents energy expressed by the
lifting of 21 tons one foot in twenty
four hours. From every volume of
air inspired about Az per cent. OF
oxygen is abstracted, and a some what
smaller quantity of carbonic acid gas
is at the same time added to the ex-
pired air"
1t should be self-evident in view of
these facts and figures that dust laden
air, especially among workers, is all
too apt to carry into the lungs not
only a staggering quantity of minute
organic particles, more or less proVoc-
ative of irritation, but to thus trans
Port into the lungs millions upon
millions Of germs that find a flrmer
foothold when the pulmonary surfaces
are inf1amed. Disease Is encouraged
by the normal action of the lungs,
which leaves a residual volume Of
air in them after each exhalation; and
the tendency with pulmonary sufferers
is to make their expirations shorter,
and by this very act leaving a larger
measure of stale air, so TO speak, in
the lungs. Accordingly, because of a
lack OF proper ventilation, to put il
in popular parlance, the tubercle
bacillus is furnished with an ideal en-
vironment in which to breed rapidly
ana 10 carry on lIS obstructive aCtlNi-
ties. Why, then. are higher attitudes
so frequently recommended for con-
sumptives?
To begin with, the air a few thou
sand feet above sea level is apt to be
comparatively dustless and, therefore,
germ free. Next, the person so sit
uated Is forced by atmospheric circum-
stances to breathe a great deal deeper,
to work his lungs more energetically,
and at each inha !ation to admit into
his breathing apparatus a much larger
volume OF air. Similarly. the expira-
tion is more radical and offers less of
chance for the retention OF bacilli
infected air in the commonly sluggish
chambers of the cells. The reason for
this stimulated functioning Is the de-
creasing percentage of oxygen in the
atmosphere as one ascends from the
sea level. Therefore, as the body de-
mands a fairly definite quantity of
oxygen to maintain certain vital proc
esses. a person well UP in the noun
tains, for instance. instinctively

feet, shall be trained TO expand their
lungs, so that the dead or stagnant
air that turks in the remoter recesses
in the lungs in cities-the main hin
drance 10 a cure-shall be got rid of?''
But Capt. Brown is not unmindful
OF a possible disadvantage of too great
an altitude for particular cases: and
in anticipation Of criticism, he says:
1T is here that there is one diffi-
culty-namely, the possibility OF
hemorrhage. As one ascends the
atnus piieiic pressure diI..iiiishcS oa =
scale which is well known. With a
diminished atmospheric pressure the
pressure OF the blood within the blood
vessels naturally increases, and this
means a greater risk of hemorrhage.
a condition of affairs that renders
some cases of early phthisis insult
able for an Alpine resort, and which
likewise could not be given aerial
treatment. Fortunately we have now
the means OF accurately testing the
blood pressure, and where that Is
found already high a lofty altitude
would either be inadvisable or should
be tried with greater caution"
Capt Brown points out that there
are other possible advantages OF aerial
therapeutics aside from the boon TO
the tubercular. IIe tells us that ana

air is left in the lungs. This residual
air amounts to about 100 cubic inches.
An adult at rest breathes about 6S6.-
900 cubic inches in the course Of
twenty-four hours; a laborer at full
work about 1,5s6,900 cubic inches
more than double. The amount of air
passing into the lungs per diem has
been estimated at 400 cubic feet in a
