DANGERS OF OZONE.
Ozone—the constituent of the sea air which trippers have taken in deep breaths—-is im longer abuve suspicion. The unscientific who have trusted implicitly in the health giving properties of ozone will now have to reconsider their views. Sir Oliver Lodge, in a lettei in "The Times," (London) warns the public that ozone in large doses, at any rate—is not so good as it seemed. "I notice," he writes, "that apparatus for the domestic manufacture and inhalation of artificial ozone is now being advertised; and, subject to correction by chemists and physiologists, I suggest that caution is desirable in its use. Some forty years ago, after a lecture by Professor Odling at the Royal Institution, I myself inhaled some ozone (without permission) from powerful apparatus on the lecture tuble, and for years afterwards suffered from nasal catarrh and mucous membrane irritation, from which up to that date I hud been free."
