more trying than most painful death !;
yet he feels it not Born in an uncOn-
scious state, the brain incapable of re-
ceivitg conscious impressions, his en-
/ trance into this hitherto unknown
world is accom- plished during a state
of oblivion, known as Natures anes-
thesia:
PainIessly we come, whence we know not
PainlessIy we go, whittier we know not
| From the earliest period of human
history death has been considered as
necessarily accompanied by pain; so
general is this belief that the terms

Tie blood sent to the brain is not
only diminished in quantity. but is
laden with carbonic acid gas, which

a gradual benumbing of the cerebral
