Let \(\kappa\) be the cofinality of \(2^{\aleph_ 0}\). There exists a Boolean algebra B of cardinality \(\kappa\) with the property that every subset of B of size \(\kappa\) contains two elements a and b such that \(a<b\). The algebra B is constructed as an interval algebra given by a subset of the real line.
