character ("Mannlings") and who tend to love softer and younger specimens of their own sex; second, those who are effeminate in appearance and cast of mind ("Weiblings"), who love rougher and older men; third, those who are of medium type ("Zwischen Urnings") and love young men.

Then there are "Urano-Dionings," who have the capacity of love in both directions, that is, for women and for men. These are generally of a manly type.

Besides these there are some sub-species, such as the "Uraniaster," who is a normal man who has acquired the urning habit; and the "Virilized Urning," who is an Urning who has gotten the normal habit, although, according to Ulrichs' classification, this is not really natural to him.

A better conception of the whole arrangement may be obtained from the following table:

The Human Male	$\scriptstyle {\left\{{\begin{matrix}\ \\\\\ \\\ \\\ \\\ \\\ \\\ \\\ \\\ \\\ \\\ \\\ \\\ \\\ \ \end{matrix}}\right.}$	(a)	Normal Man or Dioning—called Uraniaster when he acquires Urning tendencies.
		(b)	Urning	$\scriptstyle {\left\{{\begin{matrix}\ \\\\\ \\\ \\\ \\\ \\\ \\\ \\\ \ \end{matrix}}\right.}$	1.	Mannling.

		(c)	Urano-dioing.

Edward Carpenter states that if we add to this a corresponding table for the female, we shall have an idea of the complication of Ulrichs' system! Yet, complex as it is, and
