The spleen Of old, writes DIR. Andrew
Wilson, formed an organ which puzzled
the classic psychologists. IL did not
seem 10 manufacture any secretion, like
the liver or sweetbread, and they knew,
as we do today, that the removal Of the
organ Is not necessarily attended by
much disturbance of the vital functions
"A fact due TO the duties Of the missing
spleen being laid on the shoulders Of the
other organs, probably the Emphatic
glands. The spleen is undoubtedly a
blood gland II II the seat Of manufac-
ture Of the corpuscles Of the blood, red
and white. and il 10 doubt disposes Of
the old rolling stock q the blood, dis.
solving and disiniegTating the wornout
corpuscles- Additional evidence regard
ing the spleen has been supplied by Pro.
fessor Schafer. r. K 5, aud Mr.. b.
Moore. They have proved that the
spleen acts as kind Of safety valve TO
the blood circulation, and il responds at
once 10 all variations in the blood pres

heart or lungs IL il all organ which
