FALL OF TEMPERATURE--MODE OF ACTION.

In what has been written above I have stated simply and in open terms

the fact that the fall of temperature produces a specified series of

results, by reducing the force of the living organism, and disposing

it to die. We may from this point investigate, from a physiological

point of view, the mode by which the effect is produced in the

economy. How does the decline of temperature act? Is the process

simple or compound?
