Cutaneous sensibility includes common sensation, and is some- times classed as or with a special sense that of touch ; it is by means of cutaneous impressions that we are made conscious of 464 CUTANEOUS SENSATION the consistence, texture, and temperature of external objects, and it is partly by cutaneous sensation, partly by muscular sensation that we ascertain and compare their weight. As tactile organs, the skin of the palm of the hand and that of the sole of the foot play a most important pa...rt in our guidance : the varying pressures of the body on the plantar surface guide equilibration and locomo- tion ; we touch or feel objects by means of the hand and finger tips, and we consciously utilise the sensations so acquired in our knowledge of objects and in our skilled movements. The two most noteworthy subjects in connection with cu- taneous sensibility are : (1) its differences at different parts as ascertained by Weber's compass method ; (2) the question of specific 'heat nerves, ' and ' cold nerves, ' as investigated by Blix and by Goldscheider.
