WHY ARE WE RIGHT-HANDED.- rs
Charles Bell on this subject observes ::

That for the conveniences of life and
to make US prompt and dexterous, it is
evident there ought to be no hesitation
which hand is to, be used or which is. to be
put forward: and that there is indeed no
such mdecision, is it taught us or is it
from nature! There is a distinction in
the right side of the body; the left side
is weaker, both as to muscular power and
its constitutional properties. The devel-
opment of, the organs of motion and &C
ton is greater ON the right. as may be
proved by measurement, or the opinion of
the tailor Or the shoemaker. This supe-
riority may be said to result from the
more frequent use Of the right hand and.
foot. But whence the origin of this use
or practice! 1t has been said that chill
dren are taught by parents and nurses to
use. the right hand-but not always.
Besides, this ,peculiarityis constitutional
disease attacks the left side and MEM
bers much more frequently than the right.
In walking behind person we seldom
see an elualized motion Of the body; and
we may observe in the step with the
right foot, that the toe is not so much
turned out as the left, and that great
push is made with it.. From the form of
females and the elasticity of their step,
resulting more, from the ankles than the
hip, the defect of the left, is still more APP
parent. We, do not. often see children
hop on their left foot, May it, not be
concluded, then, that everything in hk
convenience of life being adapted tor the
right hand, is not arbitrary, but is owing
to a natural endowment of the body, that
the right handois stnnger and better fit
ted for action g. We conclude, therefore,
that the preference for using the right
hand rather than the left, is not the effect
of habit merely, nor adventurous. but a
provision of nature. The theory is not,
indeed, universally received. The skilful
anatomist alone can decide. Ifthere are
peculiar properties or mechanism to JUS
tifY the opinion, it affords a new proof of
wise and benevolent design in the g form
of our bodies" and of our being i" won
derfllly made ''l ''.

There had been funeral during the day.
