left hand when putting ii In the
eye of the needle.
II you watch people at a con-
cert you can tell whether they
are right or left-hsnded by the
way they applaud: the left
handlers bring the left hand
down on the palm OF the right
hand and no matter how much
they tend to learn right-handed
movements, they never get over
this particular habit.
TT Is supposed that asymmetry
Il means a performance of
either the right or left lobe Of
the brain, as the case may be,
but this is not easy to prove by
anatomical studies.
The significance OF right or
left-handedness is nothing.
There il no inferiority or
stigma implied in being left
handed.
In fact, some of the most ac-
complished men who ever lived
were left-handed: notably. Leo
nardo da Vinci.
He has left number OF
sketches which indicate his in
interest in left-handedncsses.
nNE OF these Is a bass drum
" with the stick attached so
II can be played with the left
hand.
He sketched several musical
instruments which could be
played from the left side.
His anatomical drawings are
described in writing which Is
mirror writing.
In other words, a left-hander
naturally starts to write from
the right-handed side of the
page and this slant of his let
tiers goes toward the left, just
the oppsite OF the right-handed
person.

II a slow pulse is serious? (2)
What causes pus TO form in the
corner Of the eyes? (3) Does the
thyroid gland cause the heart 10
beat fast at times?
Answer-(D A slow pulse Is
not considered abnormal unless
IL Is below so beats a minute.
II can be caused by a number of
things, one Of which is a change
In a certain part of the heart
muscle known as heart block.
CD Pus in the corner Of the
eyes is probably due to an infec-
ton of the contunctiva. OccA-
sionally eyestrain from badly
fitted glasses will cause this.
t3 An active thyroid gland
usually increases the pulse rate.
