to (j0^ probably by reason of tbe nerve having been frozen at this temperature and thus cut to pieces. It is evident that little stress is to be laid upon an apparent decrease of K with falling temperature (2417) and increase of K with rising temperature (2366). On the other hand, a diminished A. with rising temperature (2366) and an increased A. with falling temperature (2417) are not open to doubt.
