Thus in the icy regions the inhabitants consume largely of oily or fatty substances which consist chiefly of carbon; While those living in hot climates prefer vegetable diet. So we perceive the functions of the lungs and the stomach singularly agree. In cold weather large fires are necessary to keep up the animal warmth; otherwise the tissues of the body would be rapidly wasted by the'consuming properties of the oxygen. Without proceeding further, the above will afford a ready solution of several of the positions under the head of protection. It will be deduced that, if the equilibrium of the system in reference to animal, heat is deranged, unhealthy action surely follows.
