TERMINATION OF MUSCLE IN TENDON. 125 



by the aid of mounted needles, and a drop of serum 

 having been placed upon a cover-glass, this is in- 

 verted over the preparation. The rounded ends of 

 the muscular fibres are seen fitting into little depres- 

 sions in the fibrous tissue, and with prolongations 

 from this passing around and between them. 



The bloodvessels of muscle will be studied later, after 

 the methods of injecting and of cutting sections have been 

 described. The mode of termination of nerves in volun- 

 tary muscle will also be most advantageously deferred 

 until the preparation of the nerves themselves has been 

 treated of.
