Nervous l:xcitability Amer Death.
Experiments E,adc by M. dArsonval
with nm instrument he calls q inyolhone
prove, contrary to the older opinion,
that nervous excitability may exist for
many hours after death. The old test Of
the muscle shortening is no doubt not
applicable long after death has departed,
but as the sound given out by the myo-
phone proves, the death of q nerve is
much less rapid than has been hitherto
supposed. and nerve may act on mus
clio in state Of electric cxcitability
without producing more than simple
molecular vibration.
