Curiously enoug-h the right hand, wtaich is more sensitive to touch than the left, is less sensitive to temperature. If the two hands be dipped in two basins of water at the same temperature, the left hand will feel the greater sensation of warmth: nay, it will do this even when the thermometers show that the water in tbe left basin is roally somewhat colder than in the rig-ht basin. With left-handed perstfins the reverse would be foxind.
