With an atmospheric temperature of 18° C. and a localtemperature of 18° C. the duration of the contraction wasfrom 12 to 1*3 sec. After appHcation of heat the local temperature being27° C, the duration of the contraction was from 06 to0-8 sec. SECOND SERIES OF EXPERIMENTS {Tracings VI-X) The speed of the cylinder was reduced and the lengthof the recording lever increased to make the descendingphases of the curve more pronounced and to facilitate amore accurate measurement of the duration of the pro-longed contractions. (The terminal part of the curvewhich ended very gradually was not shown in the tracingsof the first series of experiments.) A. Reflex Contractures and Paralyses Case I {v. p.
