REAL SPEED or THOUGHT.
Limited by Rapidly with Which Nerve
System Can Act.

How long does it take to think?
Prof Helmholtz argues that the whale
probably feels a wound near its tail In
about one second, and requires an.
other second to send back orders to
the tail to defend itself. The reason
why the time occupied by this prep.
aratlon seems TO us so infinltesimal
lies in the fact that we are unable to
perceive more quickly than our nerve
system can act, and thus the intervals
required for its operations appear to
us imperceptibly small Astronomers

ment at which a star crosses the web
OF their telescopes by more than a

quently repeated. Still more surpris-
Ing is the difficulty OF determining
whether the beats of two gently tick.
ing watches coincide or fall between
each other If held to either ear, while
nothing is easier than the same de-
termination If both are held to the
same ear. Helmholtz pictures the
matter to himself In this way: "Ths
two perceptions of different organs
can be estimated only as regards their
time relations, when there Is a sum-
Client interval between to reflect. Now
that you have perceived one, but not
as yet the other" Our thought is not
30 rapid as we usually believe, as has
proved by his experiment of taking an
electric shock at any point on his
skin and then trying to move his hand
as quickly as possible.
