The climbing-of-Mount Everest, as one of the members of a former expedition remarked, is in essence' a physiological problem (writes a Manchester Guardian" medical correspondent). Whatever the actual defails of the recent tragedy in which two bimbera lost their lives, It is certain that the intensely arduous and unnatural atmospheric conditions of high altitudes were. predominating factors in this un- happy-ending-to-the-last-of-many- gallant attempts.

Around the questions relating to

respiration, and particularly to

respiration at high altitudes, some of the most sternly-contested scientific battles of, recent times have been fought. There are still two schools of thought tho Barcroft school at Cambridge, and the Haldane school at Oxford. But the main point of difference between them is a minor one namely, whether at high altitudes the lung dpes or does not take up an active part, instead of a purely passive one, in the absorption of oxygen by the blood. In the main the mechanism of respiration in thanks to those two workers and their associates, comparatively

fully understood.

The colouring matter of blood is known as bemoglobin; it is a

substance which possesses, from chemical point of view many remarkable characteristics.. It combines readily with oxygen, in proportion, to the amount present in the air of the lung. It gives up its oxygen with equal readiness, and under conditions which obtain in the parts of the body, whether they be muscles, gland, or other organs, where oxygen is needed. These conditions are, first, a low oxygen content and, secondly, "a | high acid content. Muscular and other vital cavities absorb oxygen, and involve an output of carbonic facfd. It will be seen, therefore, that hemoglobin is admirably
