Having passed through the outer hall, the vestibule, the nasal chambers, the pharynx, the larynx or music room, the air enters a large corridor or tube, called the trachea. The common name of the trachea is the wind- pipe. It is through the wind-pipe that the air comes rushing across the vocal cords to- make them tremble and produce sound. The trachea or wind-pipe is round, and stiff, about four and one half inches long, and is built of rings of cartilage, nearly twenty in number. It runs downw...ard and divides be- hind the breast bone into two tubes called the bronchi. One of the bronchi goes to the right lung, and the other to the left. i8i The Story of a Living Temple At the end of the corridor or trachea, part of the air then turns to the right and part to the left. The bronchi divide and subdivide into bronchial tubes, down which the air passes until it is lost in a network of narrow- ing corridors, that grow smaller and smaller, smaller than knitting needles, smaller than sewing needles, finally again like the branch- ing arteries, as small as hairs.
