Excerpt from The Heart, and How to Take Care of It To which I answer: It is the centre of the blood system, just as the spinal cord is the centre of the spinal system, and the brain is the centre of the mental forces. As the brain animates the body with intention and purpose, the heart, as the blood's executive power, gives corporeal sub stance to the frame, for the body is nothing more than solidified reorganized blood, and the blood is, in reality, only the fluid body. The spinal cord sends the various kinds of nerves - the motor, sensory and nutritive - to all portions of the body, to give it motion and life, so the heart sends through the arteries to every portion of the system the blood which feeds it and gives it growth.

Excerpt from The Heart and Blood-Vessels: Their Care and Cure and the General Management of the Body The Report on National Vitality, its Waste and Conservation, for the National Conservation Commission in states that three million peo ple are sick every day in the United States, and that half of them suffer from preventable diseases. This number is increased by at least two millions when we include the mentally defective criminal and the partially disabled neurasthenic. If it is true that God made man after his image, then we must have changed the likeness when we are subject to so much misery. If we consider the white man as the highest type in evolution, then he represents a product Of environment and an ad justment to this earth. One must fit the other and sickness should be something entirely out of the ordi nary and not an every-day occurrence. The reason so many people are sick lies in our wrong manner of living; we have forgotten that the laws of nature can not be broken with impunity by the laws and actions of man.

Excerpt from The Heart and Its Function Notwithstanding the many millions of years which our world and race have, according to some, already existed, the discovery of the circulation of the blood is but a thing of yesterday. From some passages in his work, De Trinitatis Erroribus, published in 1531, Servetus would seem to have been fully aware of the lesser or pulmo nary circulation. But it was not till 1628 that the doctrine of the circulation of the blood through the system generally was actually published by Dr. William Harvey, though indeed he 'had taught it publicly from the year 1619. It was not, however, till 1661, more than thirty years subsequently, that the Circulation of the blood was actually demonstrated by means of the micro scope, by Malpighi, so that this important fact has been known for little more than two centuries. The whole quantity of blood in the body has been reckoned at about one-fourteenth part of the weight of the body; the blood in the body of a man weighing fourteen stone will therefore amount to one stone, or fourteen pounds. If we accept this as a probable average of the weight of blood in the body, then as fourteen pounds amount to 224 ounces, and as the left ventricle contains, as we suppose, only 3 ounces, it follows that the whole blood of a man weighing 196 lbs. Passes through his left ventricle in nearly 75 (74-6) Of its systoles or contractions. And as we suppose the heart to contract only 70 times in a minute, then the whole of the blood of such a man passes through his heart 48 times in one hour, or 1152 times in one day. Of course the length of time that the whole of the blood in a man takes to pass through his heart depends upon three factors, - first, the actual amount of blood he possesses; second, the size of his ventricular cavity; and thirdly, the rate of its pulsation.

Excerpt from Industrial Colonies and Village Settlements for the Consumptive Symonds, and we together examined the patients, sampled the climate and other conditions, and argued with Unger and Ruedi. Then for the second time came Hope; more solid Hope. Given a fairly early case, and three years, and recovery was in the offing. And so we went on cheerfully with Davos. But Davos was not for every one; nor was every case an early 'one. Then came the discovery that lower altitudes would do if certain conditions were obtained; and so arose the great sanatorium movement. But slowly we found that patients could not spend their lives in sanatoriums; and one day on making my way up to one of them in England, I met on the way patient after patient, slouching along, bored to death with themselves and with each other; and even worse in morale than in body. Better discipline and better notions of thera peutics mended some of that; still I could not forget those listless saunterers, and it became evident to some of us, however unwillingly, that Hope was drooping again. The sanatorium was doing a great educative work no doubt; but at the end of its four or six months - what then? To send the patient away with recommendations about light jobs, and a regime, was almost a mockery or quite. What about the wage, and the family to be supported? The next lesson was brought home to me by a visit with other commissioners to certain cities, concerning some such problems. Before me now I see a gaunt hollow-eyed man, coughing, and leaning against the wall as he tried to talk to us, saying that his mates when he came out of the sanatorium - good fellows as they were - had bought him a milk that he might creep round, and earn a bit. The brave wife, shawl on head and mill apron on, had just come from the factory, and apologised for the dirty house - as well she might. The poor thing was working all day at the factory to keep the wolf from the door. All being dragged down together into the pit! What is the value of a good house, or a clean house, if no wages! What is there for the children? And what is to stop the infection! Who then would have the imagination, the initiative, the business capacity, to lift this burden, like lifting a world?

Excerpt from Diseases of the Heart and Aorta IN the preparation of this work it has been my object to give a faithful reflection of the state of medical science and art at the close of the present century. While attempting to reach an adequate explanation of every subject attended by diffi culty, my chief care has been to keep before me throughout the aim of practical utility. With this end in view the different aspects of disease have been illustrated by clinical examples, and the various details of treatment have likewise been exhibited in typical cases. Whenever possible these have been taken from the results of hospital experience, and only when such instances were not obtainable have private case-books been utilised. References to previous authors have been given with a freedom which may possibly be considered profuse. We are all, however, under a debt of gratitude to those into whose labours we have entered, and it is accordingly our bounden duty to render suitable acknowledgment.

Excerpt from Heart and Soul There are various kinds and degrees of feeling that go under the name of love and nothing in life is more interesting or more vitally important to study and understand. But in this preliminary summary it is enough to signal its existence as one of the factors in the problem of life. It may be just as well to note, in passing, that mothers are to be found Whose love for their chil dren is not so completely unselfish. Mothers are to be found who care very little about their chil dren. Mothers are to be found who regard chil dren as a nuisance and a disadvantage and prefer to be without them. That will be found to be one of the curious side-lights of the problem when time comes to discuss it. It does not alter the fact, however, that love exists, that the true mother's love of her child is the most complete and universal illustration of it.

Excerpt from The Secret of Progress Buckle1 regarded it as clear that militarism and high intellectual development were not compatible: till recently, many people were prepared to believe that warfare was alien to the interest of civilised peoples and could only occur among half civilised or backward races. But this war has shown that these hopes were vain, and that the last result of civilisation was not to render war impossible, but to give the means of carrying it out on a vastly extended scale. The increase of knowledge and of power over nature, and the sense of the benefits of intercourse and inter-communication have not sufficed to give us any immunity from war.

Excerpt from A Book of Cambridge Verse Nevertheless, after all deductions have been made, how much true poetry is yet left! He must be hard to please who cannot find intense enjoyment in the Eclogues of Phineas Fletcher, in Cowley's epitaph on Harvey, in the Miltonic stanzas of Gray's Installation Ode, in a score of other pieces, grave, quaint, or classical in their allusive ness of phrasing. Especially grateful must we be to the number of poets, of exquisite feeling and easy mastery of form, who during the last fifty or sixty years have enriched the language with delicate and elegant verse, from which it has been only too difficult to choose because its quantity is so great and its merit so even. Of this we trust we have given a tolerably adequate selection but it would have been easy to multiply it fourfold.
