pulse. At the twelfth minute the average pulse-rate was like that of 

 the sixth minute and by the end of 24 minutes it was but 1 beat per 

 minute higher than at the end of the first minute of walking. 



The sitting pulse following walking, which was taken at the wrist, 

 had an average of 66 beats by the second minute; this was below the 

 sitting pulse taken photographically before walking. It was still below 

 the initial pulse after 7 minutes of sitting, although there was a 

 slight rise to 67 beats. If these pulse-rates were plotted with the rate 

 as ordinates and the time as abscissse, the resultant curves would show 

 a fall between the end of the first and of the sixth minutes, followed by
