Cure for Sleeplessness.

OZONE IN THE AIR MEANS A GOOD DIGESTION AND BRIGHT SPIRITS. Do you find that you often become dull and sleepy in the evening, after a day’s work ? You do ? Then have the air of your home "ozonised.”

Speaking before the Royal SoSociety of Arts, Mr. Frank Bailey described how electrical "ozonisers” could purify bad air, and referred to the much-complained-of atmosphere of the House of Commons. "It seems strange,”, he said, "that those who make our laws do not legislate for the provision of invigorating air, and give electrical supply the opportunity of introducing the equivalent of thunderstorms—but without the thunder — and pine woods.”

The after-dinner somnolence would disappear from many homes under the influence of this vivifying gas. A wife often complains of a husband who becomes dull and sleepy in the evening, when he should be entertaining her.

She is, perhaps, irritable herself, j and the children -may be naughty j and pettish, all for want of a trifle of oaone in the air.

This gas, which is three or four times more plentiful on mountains and at the -seaside than in cities, : can prevent and cure colds, aid the i digestion of meals, raise the spirits, j and help the nourishment and growth of children.

Ozone, as everyone should know, consists of . three atoms of oxygen, the third being loosely joined to the other two, a‘nd ready to leave them on its mission of health when breathed into the lungs. It has a smell likened to fresh lobsters, which can be perceived when j oven one pint of it is present in | two and a half million pints of : of air. And this same blood-purify- j ing gas can be made in any home ‘

possessing a supply of electricity. All that is necessary is to pass an electric current through air or oxygen —precisely what happens on a large scale during a thunderstorm. Of course, the appropriate apparatus must be used.
