Further, in an animal rapidly bled todeath, the heart continues to beat for a time, varying in duration with thekind of animal experimentally dealt with and depending on whether or notthere is entire absence of blood within the heart chambers. Furthermore,if the heart of an animal be removed from the body, it still continues, for avarying time, its alternate systolic and diastolic movements. Thus we seethat the power of rhythmic contraction depends neither upon connectionwith the central nervous system nor yet upon the stimulation produced by THE PROPERTIES OF THE HEART MUSCLE 171 the presence of blood within its chambers. Whether or not rhythmicity isa property of heart muscle, as such, was conclusively settled by Gaskell andby numerous later investigators by a very simple process. Gaskell cut thin
