HEAT AND COLD. 



sequently it is thrown off along the line of least re- 

 sistence. 



The line of least resistence taking into considera- 

 tion the degree of reduction in dimension of the par- 

 ticles, being toward the left auricle of the heart. The 

 blood not being reducable by the heat generated in the 

 mechanism sufficiently to pass through the pores of 

 escape within the lungs, for waste materials. The 

 lifting power of heat upon the particles of blood, 

 aided by the accumulated weight of blood within the 

 left auricle cause the biscuped valves to open, and in 

 consequence the flow of blood continues to fill up the 

 left ventricle. The left ventricle filling by the weight 

 of blood flowing in causing contraction in the right 

 ventricle and aiding the action of cold in forcing the 

 blood collected in right ventricle off into the lungs. 

 The blood thrown off into the lungs by the contraction 

 of right ventricle becomes replaced by the opening of 

 the tricusped valves, and they in turn cause the blood 

 flowing into right ventricle to press in or contract the 

 left ventricle, thereby causing the blood to move from 

 left ventricle into the aorta. Having entered the aorta 

 the blood flows along a course where heat continues 

 to be generated sufficient to disperse the blood through 

 the pores toward the surface of the body. This dis- 

 persing being but the law of heat in its lifting or dis- 

 persing power on the properties of matter. The ar- 

 terial system being situated in the central portion of 

 the trunk of body and being fed from every heat gen- 

 erating system throughout its course. Its natural ten-
