These remarkable events brought about by the oxygen in the.

air we breathe.

Oxygen gas is very like air in appearance, and when inhaled little difference is noticeable. It is usually prepared by heating potas, alum chlorate, although many other compounds give it off on heating, such as red load, mercuric oxide, &c. When different substances are burnt in oxygen, a dazzling light and a great heat are forthcoming. There are various substances, too, which will burn in oxygen and not. in air, and a favourite example of this is a steel watch spring, which burna brilliantly, throwing, out sparks.

One of the most important uses for which oxygen is prepared is in poisonous atmospheres, such as exist in sowers, cellars, coal mines, caves, &c. The oxygen is compress- ed in steel cylinders and 'streama slowly out into an indiarubber bag, whence tubes convey it to the mouth. The carbon dioxide breath- ed out is absorbed by caustic soda placed in the bug. Armed with Buck aquipment as this, men can work without harm for hours in poisonous atmospheres, Divers, too, very often carry suppites of it, as do afrman who ascend to great heights where it is difficult to breathe, Oxygen, too, is invaluable in relieving cases of distressed breathing, exhaustion, fainting, &c., often caused by lack of it

Oxygen is said to form 47.3 per cent. of the earth's crust and the millions of tons of rock which make up, the mighty cliffs and mountain ranges of the world are nearly, half oxygen by weight. In the four winds of heaven are contained enor mbus quantities of it, and larger still in the amount contained in the mighty weas that encompass the Barth. Thus plentiful supplies: of this life-preserving element are perpetually insured-JFSB Barclay
