occurs at a hyperisotony of (lie tliiids of the body. This by perisotony 

 leads in the end to a cessation of (he respiration. I. ike the cataract 

 this cessation of the respiration can be suppiessed again by a 

 decrease of the osmotic pressure. Consequently the setting in of 

 the cessation of the respiration in hyperisotonic surroundings, just 

 as the Cheyne-Stokes' respiration that precedes it, and likewise 

 the development of cataract originate in modifications that are 

 reversible.
