The watery vapor in the air is necessary to enable the lungs to utilize the oxygen readily, as is shown by experiments that prove that dry oxygen is not as readily absorbed as that which f oxygen is much greater than that in which it naturally occurs in the atmosphere, causes great disturbance of the system and finally death. Therefore, we know that the mixture called air is not an accidental compound, but one perfectly and admirably adaate supply of oxygen than any other element. The nitrogen of the air dilutes the oxygen, as in an atmosphere of pure oxygen we would live so fast as to be very short-lived.
