The three segments that come after the head bear each a pair of very minute knobs, hardly visible without the lens: these are, to the legs of the larva in its previous form, what the cephalic mask is to the head of the same larva. They are not organs, but indications, landmarks placed at the points where these organs will appear later.
In the cephalic ganglia of insects are stored up the relics of impressions that have been made upon the common peripheral nerves, and in them are kept those which are brought in by the organs of special sense the visual, olfactive, auditory. The interaction of these raises insects above mere mechanical automata, in which the reaction instantly follows the impression.
Von Arne had dug through a score of great libraries, and had travelled all the world over, frequenting cafes and salons, monasteries and prayer-cells, prisons and hospitals and asylums wherever one might get new glimpses of the extraordinarily intricate phenomena of the aberration called "Genius". He had several thousand cases of it at his finger-tips he had measured its reaction-times and calculated its cephalic index, and analyzed its secretions and tested it for indecan.
Geoffroy, the old historian of the insects of the vicinity of Paris, was the first to find in the waters of the Seine a small animal resembling one of the Daphnids. This animal has six short and slender thoracic legs, which terminate in a hook and are borne on the under side of the cephalic shield.
The cephalic indices of the same individuals showed 84.5 as the maximum, 74.3 minimum, and 78.8 the average for the males. The maximum for the females was 83.1, minimum 76.2, average 80.7. The average length-height index, taken from the tragus to the vertex, of the same persons, was 69.8 maximum 75.6, minimum 65.1 for the men; and for the women 73.1 maximum 76.6, minimum 70.2-.
Measurements made on fifteen men and five women gave the following results: Height Men: Maximum 161.3 cm., minimum 145.1 cm., average 153.9 cm. Women: Maximum 152.3 cm., minimum 144.1 cm., average 146.8 cm. Cephalic index Men: Maximum 89.1, minimum 76.3, average 84.6. Women: Maximum 84.8, minimum 75.2, average 81.3. Length-height index Men: maximum 78.7, minimum 64.5, average 74.2.
Finot gaily related in after days that without the thousand crowns he earned through Cephalic Oil he should have died of misery and despair. To him a thousand crowns was fortune. It was in this campaign that he guessed let him have the honor of being the first to do so the illimitable power of advertisement, of which he made so great and so judicious a use.
The two ends of the ellipsoid have the same form, so much so that it is only thanks to an individual peculiarity, independent of the shape, that we can tell the cephalic from the anal extremity. The cephalic pole is flexible and yields to the pressure of my tweezers; the anal pole is hard and unyielding. The wrapper is double, as in the cocoons of the Sphex.
If the offending humour be pure blood, then you must let blood in the arm, and the cephalic vein is fittest to draw back the blood; then let the juice of plantain and comfrey be injected into the womb. If phlegm be a cause, let cinnamon be a spice used in all her meats and drinks, and let her take a little Venice treacle or mithridate every morning.
Consequently, the bulbs, which contain the generating fluids, are neither chilled by cold nor parched by heat. The hair of the head, that magnificent product, priceless alike to man and woman, will be preserved even to advanced age, in all the brilliancy and lustre which bestow their charm upon the heads of infancy, by those who make use of CEPHALIC OIL.
