...general results are produced as in the case of transplantation. Steinach himself makes no extravagant claims. He calls the effect " arrest within modest limits of the process of senility," and says the use of the term " rejuvenation " is unfortunate. It is merely the prolongation for varying periods of the normal functions of middle life...
...period of steadier and less expensive even if slower construction. An analysis of the country's building requirements shows that the present demand for buildings-a survival of the long war period of inadequate construction-would warrant for the next ten years a building program 25% above normal production. The problem will be to keep down the costs of this unusually large program, in order that when rentals fall to a lower and more stable basis, large speculative losses may be avoided. Just now contractors are confidently undertaking new projects again, aided by the big insurance companies and other...
Great Britain, anxious to restore a modicum of order in chaotic China, suggests joint action by the Powers to restore normal conditions along the Chinese coast and up the great rivers...
Pavloff's name is best known to the Western world for his classic demonstration of the neurological basis of the digestive process in dogs. A normal animal, if hungry, shows increased flow of saliva and the digestive juices at the sight or smell of food. By a simple surgical operation, Pavloff brought the duct of a dog's salivary gland to the surface of the cheek and measured the flow under stimulus of food. At regular feeding times a bell was rung, and after several repetitions it was found that the sound of the bell alone, without food...
...another brilliant experiment, following the investigations of von Bischoff and Heidenhain, Pavloff was able to produce a fistula, or tube, connecting the stomach of a dog with the surface, keeping the animal free from pain and under the most normal conditions possible. By this means he studied the flow of the gastric and pancreatic juices under varying conditions, proving that the secretions vary in quantity, rate and digestive power with the nature of the food...
