Page 142 - But that I am forbid To tell the secrets of my prison-house, I could a tale unfold whose lightest word Would harrow up thy soul, freeze thy young blood, Make thy two eyes, like stars, start from their spheres, Thy knotted and combined locks to part And each particular hair to stand on end, Like quills upon the fretful porcupine : But this eternal blazon must not be To ears of flesh and blood.

It is used more by the ignorant practitioner, who is deficient in the ability to diagnosticate obscure diseases, than by one of intelligence, who can discern more clearly the true pathological state. Its use is more frequent in some countries as England, under the teaching of great names, than in others, as France, where the highest authorities, as Rilliet and Barthez, discountenance it.
Page 125 - From this the general law is deduced that the rate of surface evaporation is proportional to the elastic force of the vapor. Thus, suppose two tanks of similar surface dimensions and open to the atmosphere, one containing water maintained constantly at 212° Fahr., and the other containing water at 144° Fahr. Then, for each pound of water evaporated in the last tank, five pounds will be evaporated in the first tank. It should be understood that the law of Dalton holds good only for...
