THE PROGRESS OF SCIENCE. ACCESSORY SEXUAL CHARACTERS.
MOSAIC OF INHERITANCE,
BY THE TINKS SCIENTIFIC
·CORRESPONDENT. }.
The primary differenen between male and female is sharp and clear, and is often evident under the microscope in very early embryonic stages of the in dividual. The gonad of the male pro- duces sperms, the good of the female produces eggs But thero is no corres ponding sharp lise between other dis-. inetions of the sexes. In some arimala the two sexes are otherwise identical. In some species only the habits in the breed. ing season betray the primary difference. In others, in perhaps the majority of the higher animals, there are differences in the structures accessory to the reproduc tive processes, in size, in coloration, in ornamentation, in weapons, in habits, and in psychology. These may appear early or only at maturity; they may per sist through life, may reappear annually. or may fade out with the approach of age. Although each is usually linked with the sex to which it belongs, the as- semblage of characters forms a mosaic of almost independent parts which may be distributed very differently in different Individuals There may be a complete reverzal, The ben Cassowary, for ex ample, lays eggs, but abandons the nest and the care of the young to the cock; she is larger, more pugnacious, more brightly coloured, more heavily armed: she courts the shy male and-fights her rivals for him.

CHEMICAL MESSENGERS.

The general relation, of the accessory sexual distinctions to the primary organs of sex has long been inferred from the profound chang.s that follow the res moval, the decay, or the disease of the goaads. But more recently it has been brought into correlation with the physio- logy of the bly. Most parts of our structure, in addition to their patent function- the contraction of muscles: the formation of bile by the liver, of eggs by the ovary," of sperms by the testis. atani in special relation to the blood. They pour into it chemical substances formerly known as internal secretions to distinguish them from the external secre- tions glands, but now, known hormones, or messengers, because through the blood stream they may reach and in- Buene, the remotest parts of the body. It has tera ascertained that the accessory sexual characters are under the control of hormones produced ant by the rexual cells, but by other tissurs of the gonads, the so-called interstitial cells. These in- ternal secretions may act directly ro as to stimulate the production of characters: of the "sex to which they belong. An ovary has been grafted on the body of a. male guinea pig with the result that the nammary glands, usually rudimentary in the male increased in size and pro- duced milk. They may act indirectly by inhibiting the normal characters of the other tex. In many female animals the hormones produced by the ovary prevent the growth of suppressed male charac ters; if the ovary become diseased or is removed, the restraint ceases, and the male characters emerge In man and many of the higher animals it seems as if the organism held the possibilities of the accessory characters of both sexes, and that the hormones by their restraining or by their stimulating influence induco their suppression on their development.
BEX AND MENDELIAN INHERITANCE The Mendelian study of iuberitance has shown that many characters are trans ferred as independent units from parent to offspring, the mostics of parental character being dissected out and remar shalled in the offspring according to de finite numerical principles Although raany believe this line of investigation to have an almost universal application, it has been most successful when distinct species or well-marked varieties are croes- ed, and, in the case of characters so un; usual as to be abnormal. We may rea sonably assume that association of male accessory characters with the male gonad. and of female with the female gonad, is the normal arrangement.
The odd ad- mixtures which do occur, even although they are frequent, may be considered abnormal, even pathological. On such an assumption, it would be less surprising to find the following the Mendelian rules of inheritance in the fashion of colour-blindness, congenital bleeding, and the characters of crossed species. It may well ho that the primary and accessory characters of sex obey different rules in inheritLoca
The onset of adult life and the annual breeding pericds of inany animala 'are gociated with a general efflorescence of bukily vigour, displayed in the mind and the emotions as well as in the ornamenta tion and activity of the body. This condition" is no doubt associated with an abundant accretion of hormones. It oc curred to a French physiologist, Browa Sequard, that the hormones produced by the gonads might be, so to speak, an elixir of life, and that their introduction from an alien source into an old animal might reace youth.

The British Army, which once swore terribly in Flanders, seems to have been pretty voluble in Russia.
