PURE AIR BY DIFFUSION. 
BY DR. JOHN F. LOCKWOOD, KANSAS CITY, MO. 
We use natural gas as a fuel and for lighting 
purposes. There is little or no odor about our 
natural gas, and it is therefore not discoverable 
by the sense of smell when it happens to escape 
into the living apartments. 
Last night the gas in our residence was lit in 
the upper hall, which communicates freely with 
the sleeping rooms. The gas pressure lowered 
and the jet went out unnoticed by us. Later, 
as is usual, afte reverybody has cooked the eev- 
ning meal, the gas pressure rose and all night 
long the gas poured into the sleeping rooms. 
The family slept in these rooms and passed the 
night quite comfortably. It was at 5 a. m. that 
we awoke and heard a roaring. It did not sound . 
like steam from the steam radiators, so we 
arose to investigate. Then it was that we dis¬ 
covered that gas had been escaping all night 
long. When we realized that we had been safely 
delivered from what might have been a case of 
wholesale methane poisoning we began to 
praise the bridge that had brought us over. 
Let us here deliberately detail to the reader 
the ‘‘bridge.” Please patiently follow: 
Last fall, as cold weather began, we put into 
practice the following scheme for ventilating 
the sleeping rooms: It consists of providing 
each bedroom with a yard square of “gills.” 
We call them gills because of their similarity of 
purpose with the gills of a fish—supplying 
oxygen. One window in each bedroom is 
selected and the lower half is fitted with a light 
frame (or the summer screen may be used) 
covered with 6k2-ounce drill or muslin sheeting. 
This forms the “gills.” Now for the modus 
operand!: In the summer time when the tem¬ 
perature of the air is such that drafts are not 
dangerous we have no trouble in getting the 
right quality of air to breathe, but when the coM 
)veather comes we are driven indoors and in an¬ 
ticipation of sudden cold snaps we seal our 
houses, filling cracks and crannies until not a 
breath of fresh air can enter. We have two rea¬ 
sons for doing this: One is to prevent cold 
drafts striking us, and another and principal 
reason, it may be, is to economize in fuel. 
In sealed houses in winter we breathe and re¬ 
breathe the same air and each time we inspire it 
we rob it the more of its oxygen and laden it 
the more with carbon dioxide. 
When one retires to sleep in a pent-up at¬ 
mosphere, vitiating it more and more each hour, 
toward morning one feels the need of more 
covers, for the feet are cold. Why? Oxygen 
which unites with the fat in the blood and thus 
by combustion warms the body is much ex¬ 
hausted from the sleeping apartment, and so 
the morning finds the sleeper chilly, not rested, 
not refreshed, not repaired; the head aches, 
there are malaise stupor, and a disinclination to 
begin tile day. Now had the same time been 
spent in a canvas inclosure the air would have 
been continuously replete with that life-giving 
quality—oxygen. Such environment tends to 
keep the atrnospheres equal or even in quality. 
Air IS a mixture, not a chemical compound; 
therefore to rob it of oxygen does not disinte¬ 
grate it, but only lessens its life-sustaining 
quality.

With each inspiration fully one-fifth of the 
oxygen diffuses into the blood. Do we know 
this to be true experimentally? We surely do. 
Herein is a practical demonstration of a gas 
diffused into a liquid through a moist intercept¬ 
ing membrane (the wall of the blood vessel). 
How rapid the process must be that it should be 
performed between the acts of inspiration and 
expiration! Patiently consider with me the 
steps: When we inbreathe, the air tubes, termi¬ 
nating in blind ends, expand, enlarge, the re¬ 
sidual air in the lungs retires into these blind 
ends followed in by the tidal air, the oxygen 
from the tidal air leaps into the residual air and 
on into the blood through the moist membrane 
(blood container), changing the blood from a
