"M$ .rock.. can emiure with ptirfect impunity, way, with pleasure? /rhe following is the scientific reason: A vast number of minute glands spread over the inner surface of the cutis vera, or true skill, for the purpose of- secreting a watery fluid for evaporation. At high tempera­ ture these glands are excited to secret­ ion iu proportion to the aiuouut of heat. Exhalation becomes copious--evapora­ tion takes.place rapidly, and thus the skin surface is kept i loist and cool. Hence tiie capacity of the human body to endure high temperatures with im­ punity must be measured by the pow­ ers of exhalation and evaporation its cutaneous organism posseses. Because were the skin choked up, so not to secret and exhale sufficiently, the action of the high heat of the fever on the skin surface would i&bliterate its natural functions and <l€ath results. , _ *. ' It is a settled principie in mechanical philosophy that heat is but a form of meleeuliar energy, or simply a mode of motion: why, then, cannot the heat of the inflammation of the skin of a small­ pox patient be transformed, on the well known law, that heat is absorbed and carried off on the conversion of • a liquid into the gaseous state ? Any very light substance, which rap­ idly evaporatcV, would do this as either; but the application of any such, except the one to be mentioned ami it rela­ tives, to an inflamed surface, is Irrita­ ting and smarting.
