This general law of Nature finds no exception in our bodies, nnori when any portion of the body gets cold the bloodaressele which traverse it contract, with the result that the flow of blood is diminiehed. Subee- quent expoeure to heat reuses the blood- vessele to resume their former aim, and, if anything, to stightty exceed 11, owing to the reaction on the effects of the pre- .vious cold. The result of these different operations is very naturally to crack the surface of the skin, and form the un- pieagant little wounds which we call "naps."
