Tliis lattci classification lends itself as a parallelto the above classification. Scldesingers hypeitonic stomach is. Fig. 74.—The hyposthenic to asthenic habitus, a While hyposthenic(Fig. 69) there is considerable suggestion of the asthenic (Fig. 67) in this type. This isshown in the long thorax with somewhat narrow intercostal angle but especially by therelatively wide pelvis, which, with the vertical heart and moderately low position of thesomewhat atonic abdominal viscera, distinctly suggest the asthenic. (Mills.) RELATION OF STOMACH TYPES TO HABITUS 353 essentially the stomach of the hypersthenic (Fig. 66) his atonicstomach that of the asthenic (Fig. 67). The orthotonic stomachcorresponds to the sthenic (Fig. 68), thongh less exactly thando the other stomach forms to their parallel habits. The hypo-tonic stomach is the stomach of the liyposthenic (Fig. 69). Theclassification proposed may be nsed as a division of all subjects intotwo types in which sthenic or asthenic characteristics are dominant,as a division into four major types, or may include a classification KALEVI
