J. S. Mill’s Methods V

Nobody asked but …

There’s a lot of hide under the fur on this bear.

From Dictionary of Philosophy
Mill’s methods: Inductive methods formulated by John Stuart Mill for the discovery of causal relations between phenomena.

Method of Residues: Subduct from any phenomenon such part as is known by previous inductions to be the effect of certain antecedents, and the residue of the phenomenon is the effect of the remaining antecedents.

— A. Cornelius Benjamin
