An apparatus for the produced when the electric spark is pa ed through air or oxygen, when a stick of phosphorus is allowed to oxidize slowly, and in various other ways. At a high temperature ozone is changed into ordinary oxygen, two latter. Chemical tests show that ozone exists in the at volumes of the former yielding three volumes of the mosphere to a minute extent, and in greater quantity in country districts than in towns, while in crowded thor oughfares it ceases to be recognizable. Ozone has a great bleacher and an intense oxidizer. power of destroying offensive odors, and is a powerful lati on to the amount of atmospheric electricity present.
