ous instances of colour observed along with savour in the same 
place (as a pot) entitle us to establish invariable concomitance 
be m? As regards the observation of an instance 
numerous times, it may be asked how many times? There is 
certainly no fixity as to the number of times. There cannot 
in fact be an invariable concomitance of a pen with a ground 
as we observe the former co-accompanied by the latter; and 
by applying our reasoning we further find that had there been 
no inseparable connection between smoke and fire, we could 
have seen the former without the latter, but as such a contin-

Conclusion as to the Means of Apprehending Invariable 
Concomitance. 
The observation of co-accompaniment attended with the 
absence of knowledge of exceptions is the means of apprehending 
variable concomitance, e.g. there is iuvariable concomitance 
of smoke with fire as the former constantly accompanies the 
latter without any exceptions. 
[he knowledge of exceptions may assume the form of a 
certainty or doubt. In the former alternative we cannot at all 
‘pprehend invariable concomitance, and in the latter there is 
rhs difficulty in apprehending it. Doubt arises from two 
ro v3 sometimes from the recognition of common properties 
the lan oeition of special properties. As an instance of 
twilj atter source we may point out a tall object which in the 
‘wilight produces in us a doubt as to whether it is a man or a 
Ben because we recognise in it tallness which is the common 
2 rty of a man and a post without the recognition of loco- 
on, ete., which are the special properties of a man.
