Show Importance
OF Ventilation
By U. 8. Public Health Service
First Of -Four Articles)

When we come from rne fresh
out of door air into that OF crowded
assembly room II takes no special
training to recognize that the latter
Is "stuffy." But Just what makes it
so ?
For many years two common
explanations were offered. namely
that there was an increase in the
carbon dioxide and a dimunition of
oxygen. and that there were poisons
in the expired air.
Ordinary air contains about 20
per cent of oxygen and three one
hundredths of one per cent of
carbon dioxide. 1t has been shown
that an atmosphere containing only
Is per cent oxygen and as much 10
5 or wen 20 parts Of carbon diox-
ide may be endured for a length of
time without any harmful effects.
These changed proportionate
quantities Of oxygen and carbon d.
oxide are far beyond that which is
possible in any ordinary human
habitation. Carbon dioxide in itself
Ii well known to be harmless.
The questions of poisons being
present in the expired air has been
| investigated by numbers of physi-
ologists. There Is no proof what
ever that the expired air contains
any poisonous substances.
For instance. rabbits have been
confined in a series of large jars
that a current Of air may be passed
through. The rabbit in the last jar,
which has received the expired air
from the lungs of all the other rab-
bits. suffers no injurious effects.
We have thus disposed Of two
common explanations Of what
makes expired air bad In another
article we shall tell you a little
LEGATIONS and what they have dis
closed.
Pus In the Urine.
What 10 tho cause of rus in the
ur.ne? The best cure: Can it be
cured?
The source of pus in the urine can
only be determined by the most
careful laboratory test. The pus
may come from the kidney. the
funnel-like portion OF the tube
carrying the urine to the bladder,
the bladder. the PROSTATE gland in
the maIes or from the uretha-
In most instances this condi-
ton is quite serious and should
be in the hands of a competent
physician. Some forms are read
lily durable: others are not.

at each meal. Children should
not be allowed to drink tea or

desserts such as custards. baked ap-
