Of blood vessels in 1t. These turbinates
serve a double purpose, being both
radiators and humidifiers. As radiators
they are more efficient than any radi-

besides they add to the excessively arid

moisture to prevent irritation OF the

their work cut out for them. Certain

will be more or less a nuisance to at

who appreciates health and comfort will
gladly pay such n price for the boon.
