born A. D. 1870. That the term is yet
used is testimony that the old doc
trine Of spirits is not obsolete. Galen
perhaps had conception of nerve
trunks as conductors of something
he called it spirits-to and from the
brain and spinal cord. The natural
spirits were that property which gave
to blood the capacity of nourishing
the tissues Of the body. The vital
spirits were acquired in the heart;
and when at last the blood with its
vital spirits went to the brain and
experienced sort of refinement for
the last time, the animal spirits were
separated from 1t and carried to the
body by the nerve trunks. The animal
spirits OF Galen have become the
nerve impulses of today. These are
not electricity, but they produce it..
and can be manifested by 1t.
