In these cases there has been found associated an unusual condition of the bon,e-marrow, the lymphatic glands, the spleen, and, some have thought, of other parts. The excessive action of these organs results in the production and discharge into the blood-current of cells that are immature and embryonic in character. This seems to us an example of a to an earlier condition. It is instructive also in that the facts point to a possible seat of origin of the cells in the adult, and, taken in connection with other facts, we may say, to their normal source. These blood-producing organs, having too much to do in disease, do their work badlyâ^it is incom- plete. Although the evidence, from experiment, to show that the nervous system in mammals, and especially in man, has an in- fluence over the formation and fate of the blood generally, is scanty, there can be little doubt that such is the case, when we take into account instances that frequently fall under the notice of physicians. Certain forms of aneemia have followed so di^ rectly upon emotional shocks, excessive mental work and worry,\ as to leave no uncertainty of a connection between
