Moistening Dry Indoor Air

By Designer

DRYNESS of the air tempts to overheating of the living-rooms, for dry air increases the evaporation of perspiration from the skin, thereby increasing the sensation of chilliness. Dry air at seventy-five degrees will feel about as chilly as moist air at sixty-five degrees. Stoves, coils, and furnaces should always have open vessels of water exposed to evaporation for the purpose of properly moistening the air. This moistening of the air will prove a saving of both coal bills and doctor's bills.— Designer.
