The Sense Of Touch.

TWO persons are required for this ex-
i pertinent, one of whom tests the
sense of touch of the other. For this
purpose pair of compasses is taken,
whose points, somewhat blunted, are
placed at a certain distance from each
other on part of the skin of the other
person. The latter must then say, with
closed eyes, whether he feels the contact
of two seperate points, or whether both
seem to be merged into one. The result
of this experiment upon the less sensi-
tive parts Of the skin is very surprising.
If the points are placed in the forearm
in the direction of its length at the dis
tance of 1853 inch the sensation is a
double one, but so soon as the distance is
reduced to 1.18 inch the contact is felt as
a single point, and the person expert.
mented on feels considerably surprised
on opening his eyes when he sees that
two points have been touched instead of
one. The tip of the tongue is found the
most sensitive, the two points being dis.
-tinguished when only 1894 of an inch
apart. If the points of the compass be
placed on the cheek near the ear, 80 that
both can be clearly distinguished, and
then brought slowly over the skin to
the lips, a sensation is experienced as
though the points were being separated
from each other The skin of the back
has the dullest sense of touch, since
when the points are at distance of 2.3d
they are still perceived as single touch.
1t is quite astonishing how greatly the
distance between the two points must
be increased on the back before we are
clearly conscious of double impression.
Weber explains these facts by assuming
that the terminal limits of nerve fibre
are much smaller than sensory circles,
so that the latter always contain q great
number of isolated nerve fibres unexcit-
ed lie between them, the impression is
only single one. A curious illusion of
touch is seen when the first and second
fingers are crossed and pea picked up
between them in this unnatural position.
The idea is particularly strong that the
hand is holding two peas, and the illu-
sion is especially powerful when the pea
is rolled back and forth between the
fingers.
