which confers upon the disorder its unique po-

physiological, disturbance. 1t has no natural
connection with dyspepsia Tho robust and
healthy, by strange contradiction, suffer from
it for the time hardly less than the weak and
Ill. Its variations of intensity are felt to be
counterparts of mere bodily oscillation. Some

In active occupation, all more or less when their

These are circumstances which one and

How it Differs at Different Ages and Under
Varying Conditions of Life


Having recently examined a larg enumber Of
specimens of human blood from persons Of
different ages ranging from four to seventy
six years, some being those in robust health,
others being tuberculose, correspondent of
Science struck with the great difference in
the shade of color presented, some being of a
very rich tint, others very pale. He says:
twenty-six years of age, a graduate Of vassar
College, who had the highest anthropometric
measurement for respiratory capacity in .
class of about 500 girls.
.Her health was excellent and she consumed
rather more flesh food than is usual. The next
highest tint was found in the blood Of a woman
about seventy years old. with a somewhat I'M
usual chest measurement, having also excellent
respiratory capacity and being in fine health.
This woman, on the contrary. does not eat flesh
at all. expected in her case to find o more
than ordinary number of white blood corpus
cles but there were far less than usual, it being
difficult to find them, they were SO few. The
palest Blood was from a chlorotic Irish servant
girl of twenty-five years and in tuberculose
boy Of four. There was not much perceptible
differences in their cases.
The girl had naturally good respiratory
power. but she had lessened it by tight clothing
and an almost constant indoor life for q long
time. After spending a month at the seaside
examined her blood again and found the tint
somewhat deeper than before. As we know
the color OF the blood is caused by the hemoglo-
bin in the red blood corpuscles, and if this is
greater when the respiratory capacity il great
est may not the color Of the blood be height
ened by enlarging the chest and increasing the
lung power? From some observations have
