the muscles of the back:

(1) First make a homophone of the name of the muscle.

(2) Indicate each attachment of the muscle by two words.

The initial letter of the first word should indicate the part of
bone to which the muscle is attached, _e.g._, Sp = spinous process,
T = transverse process, R = rib, &c. The second word should indicate
by its consonants the _numbers_ of the bones to which the
attachment is made.

(3) Correlate the homophone of the muscle to the first pair of words,
and the first pair to the second pair. For example:

"The SPLENIUS COLLI is attached, inferiorly, to the spinous processes of
the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth dorsal vertebrae, and superiorly to
the transverse processes of the first two or three cervical vertebrae."

spleniuS COLLi (homophone) SCOLD.
SCOLD ... cold ... marble ... SPLENDID IMAGE ...
gold statuette ... chimney ornament ... clock ... 'TIS TIME.

In the first pair of words the initial of Splendid shows that the
attachment is to the Spinous processes, and the word Image indicates
that the vertebrae implicated are the third to the sixth. The second pair
show that the transverse processes, from the first to the third, are
those into which the muscle is inserted.

"The SPLENIUS CAPITIS arises from the spines of the seventh cervical and
two upper dorsal vertebrae and from the ligamentum nuchae. It is inserted
into the lower and back part of the mastoid process, and into the outer
part of the superior curved line of the occipital bone."

spleniuS CAPitis (homophone) ESCAPE.
ESCAPE ... flight ... projectile ... trajectory ... conic section ...
SPLIT CONE.
split ... spliced ... ligatured ............ LIGAMENTUM NUCHAE.
new keel ... ship ... mast ................. MASTOID.
masticate ... eat ... drink ... sip ........ OCCIPITAL.

1. Do you need to use Homophones in this study?
2. What is the most difficult task in Anatomy?
3. Do students generally master this thoroughly?
4. What makes the learning of Anatomy easy?
5. Is my System a substitute for dissection?
6. How can you get a comprehension of anatomical facts?

POISONS AND ANTIDOTES.

Narcotic poisons are neutralized by vinegar:--NARCOTICS ... torpor ...
strong wine ... sour wine ... _vinegar_.

Wine, brandy, coffee, and camphor may be used to rouse those who have
taken laudanum or any other preparation of opium ... OPIUM ... opium
