The Pelvis.  -- The pelvis is an irregular-shaped basin, formed by the hip bones and the pubic bones in front.  In the upper and back part is the foot of the spinal column, consisting of a wedge-shaped bone called the sacrum.  It is observed firmly planted between the wide spreading hip bones of the pelvis, like the keystone of an arch, and gives a strong support to the burden above.

Like the section referring to the composition of the chest this section has very little to remark upon other the fact that it has very little to remark upon and so I'll leave it at that.  To certain extent I feel like I'm speeding through the sections is there just basically describing an image.  In the first chart this was a little bit more entertaining, however I know from looking for in the book that there's much more entertainment to be had in future pages. The section does refer to 'hip bones' as opposed to the modern compound word spelling of hipbones.

• Interior Arrangement of Lungs
  
  

  Interior Arrangement of Lungs. — On turning this flap over we find a vertical section of lungs, showing their anterior arrangements. The lower end of the trachea divides, one portion going to each long. These again subdividing continue to subdivide in geometrical order, growing smaller and smaller with each division, and extending to every part of the lungs, finally terminating in a cluster of air cells, bound together by cellular tissue and forming a lobule. These lobules vary in size accordingly as they are located on the surface of the lung or deeper in its tissues. Each lobule is separate and distinct from the other, and forms in itself a perfect and independent lung in miniature

  Function Of the Lobules. — In this arrangement we see the boundless wisdom of the Creator displayed, for were it not for this wise and perfect; provision — one of the very greatest importance in the process of respiration, since it enables each individual lobule to perform its functions independently of the rest — tubercular disease, bronchitis and inflammation of the lungs would not only be incurable, but would prove to be very rapidly fatal.

  ______________
  The last paragraph of this section is written with very peculiar grammar, some of it seems to be due to its age of a hundred years or more and the rest seems to be bad grammar that slip by the editor, this mixed in with the nonsecular reference makes what would probably be an important statement somewhat obscure.

• Lead Palsy
  
  

  Lead Palsy. — under some special circumstances, not at present well understood, extremely minute amounts of lead in water may prove injurious. Thus, for example, Dr. Angus Smith speaks of cases in which lead paralysis, or palsy, was apparently produced by water containing only 1/100TH of a grain of lead to the gallon.

  I’d like to veer off the topic of lead poisoning for a second and just meditate on the fact that until I engaged in reading this section of the book, I had not taken the time to learn the definition of ‘palsy’

  Is is actually an alternative to the word paralysis, and might even be a slang term or abbreviated version of the word.  My own apathetic ignorance as it relates to this word, which to my ears in 2008 even sounds a little politically incorrect, speaks to a decrease in the threat of cerebral palsy even though paralysis (palsy) is still a real problem as a result of injuries.  I might be more in tune with seeking a car insurance quote than fearing for the potential of developing palsy as a result of lead poisoning.

• Body Sculpture Turns to Lipo Sculpture
  
  

  There was a time when people carved the human figure and marble or would grieve and dipped it in a precious metal like gold or bronze.  Michelangelo’s David might even be considered an example of man’s attempt to sculpt the perfect person.

  That was hundreds of years ago and today we are reaching a point where we can literally sculpt the perfect person while they are alive.  I’m not talking about anything macabre, I’m talking about the science of plastic surgery.

  Today people have the option of going to a surgeon to have imperfections in the body corrected.  They can seek los angeles cosmetic surgery experts to help them correct or crooked nose or improve a smile or he raise harder and wrinkles and provide a net or talk or boost.

  With the invention of the technique known as liposuction, and all of the advances that are made in this technique year after year and month after month, people can now scope their body to fit the mold and model in their minds eye.  People travel from many different places to have their figure or their body re-formed by the hands of a beverly hills liposculpture Doctor.

  Within a short amount of time in a short amount of recovery they can go back out of the world literally a new person.

  This type of concept would have been completely foreign to people hundred years ago.  Surgery in general was extremely risky a hundred years ago, and it would have been completely impractical and even dangerous back then to consider cosmetic surgery.  It’s amazing what a hundred years can do for this particular science.  Surgery is still very serious and dangerous, but science and medicine have improved so drastically that the mortality rate for general surgery is nowhere near what it used to be and now doctors can even perform smaller surgeries with techniques that are becoming less and less invasive every single year.
