Fie. 1. Diagrammatic reconstruction of the submaxillary gland. Magnified 12 diameters. The reconstruction shows the distribution of 
the ducts and their termination in the alveoli, together with the arrangement of the accompanying blood-vessels. For the sake of clearness 
in drawing, there is some discrepancy between the relative size of the blood-yessels and ducts, The blood supply is taken from a pig at 
birth where the type of circulation is so developed that it differs in no way from that of the adult. The histological portion and the 
digested section are from the human submaxillary, while the piece digestion is from the submaxillary of the dog. The limiting membranes 
of these two tissues have simply been forced to meet in order to show their relationship by the diflerent methods. Otherwise no violence 
has been done to the original specimens. (J. M. Flint, Angiology of submarillary gland.)
