    From the above analyses we deduce the following con¬ clusions : (a) Cases where the higher of the two temperatures com¬ pared is 35° C., or above that point. 1st. Where the absolute temperature of the side only which in each comparison shows the higher temperature, and also the absolute temperature of the two sides in cases of equality of temperature are regarded, the apportionment in each table of the highest average absolute temperatures is as follows : [“1st33 signifies highest average absolute temperature, and “2nd” and “3rd” correspond respectively to lower averages.] Table 1. 1st. Right side. 2nd. Left side. 3rd. Equality. Table 3. 1st. Right side. 2nd. Equality. 3rd. Left side. Table 2. 1st. Left side. 2nd. Right side. 3rd. Equality. Table 4. 1 st. Equality. 2nd. Right side. 3rd. Left side. 2nd. Where the absolute temperatures of both sides are averaged in each case of superiority of a side, the absolute temperature in cases of equality being taken as before, the apportionment in each table of the highest average absolute temperatures is as follows : Table 1. 1st. Right side. 2nd. Left side. 3rd. Equality. Table 3. 1st. Equality. 2nd. Right side. 3rd. Left side. Table 2. 1st. Equality. 2nd. Left side. 3rd. Right side. Table 4. 1st. Equality. 2nd.
