     Common sense, according to Sir W. Hamilton:
        (a) ``The complement of those cognitions or convictions
            which we receive from nature, which all men possess in
            common, and by which they test the truth of knowledge
            and the morality of actions.''
        (b) ``The faculty of first principles.'' These two are the
            philosophical significations.
        (c) ``Such ordinary complement of intelligence, that,if a
            person be deficient therein, he is accounted mad or
            foolish.''
        (d) When the substantive is emphasized: ``Native practical
            intelligence, natural prudence, mother wit, tact in
            behavior, acuteness in the observation of character,
            in contrast to habits of acquired learning or of
            speculation.''
  
     Moral sense. See under Moral,
        (a) .
  
     The inner sense, or The internal sense, capacity of the
        mind to be aware of its own states; consciousness;
        reflection. ``This source of ideas every man has wholly in
        himself, and though it be not sense, as having nothing to
        do with external objects, yet it is very like it, and
        might properly enough be called internal sense.'' --Locke.

        cavities which inclose, more or less completely, the
        organs of smell, sight, and hearing.
  
     Sense organ (Physiol.), a specially irritable mechanism by
        which some one natural force or form of energy is enabled
        to excite sensory nerves; as the eye, ear, an end bulb or
        tactile corpuscle, etc.
  
     Sense organule (Anat.), one of the modified epithelial
        cells in or near which the fibers of the sensory nerves
        terminate.
        [1913 Webster]
  
     Syn: Understanding; reason.
  
     Usage: Sense, Understanding, Reason. Some philosophers
            have given a technical signification to these terms,
            which may here be stated. Sense is the mind's acting
            in the direct cognition either of material objects or
            of its own mental states. In the first case it is
            called the outer, in the second the inner, sense.
            Understanding is the logical faculty, i. e., the power
            of apprehending under general conceptions, or the
            power of classifying, arranging, and making
            deductions. Reason is the power of apprehending those
            first or fundamental truths or principles which are
            the conditions of all real and scientific knowledge,
            and which control the mind in all its processes of
            investigation and deduction. These distinctions are
            given, not as established, but simply because they
            often occur in writers of the present day.
            [1913 Webster]
