GENERAL ANALYSIS. 



food : the Mouth, Stomach, and Second Stomach. There 

 are three divisions of the Digestory Canal above the 

 Stomach : the (Esophagus, Pharynx, and Mouth. There 

 are three divisions of the canal below the (Esophagus : 

 Stomach, Second Stomach, and Colon. Six divisions of 

 the central canal. The Second Stomach is subdivided 

 into three divisions: Duodenum, Jejunum, and Ilium. 

 The Colon is subdivided into Vermiform, Appendage, 

 Co3cum, Ascending, Transverse, Descending, Sigmoid 

 flexure, and Rectum ; and along the whole canal are sit- 

 uated the organs called Glands, to form fluids from the 

 Blood and pour them into the Canal. 



439. THE LACTEALS ARE OFTEN CLASSED, and per- 

 haps most properly, among the Blood-tubes, or that part 

 of them called Lymphatics; for the Lacteals are consti- 

 tuted like the Lymphatics, and perform similar duties in 

 a similar way; yet they are usually reckoned among the 

 Digestory Organs. (See Fig )

Fig. 104 represents 

 a coil 7 of the Second 

 Stomach turned back 

 and other parts dis- 

 sected away to show 

 the lacteals, 6, glands, 

 5, and the main duct, 

 7 1, which extends up 

 and connects with the 

 veins in the neck, as 

 shown in fig. To ob- 

 serve how the lacteals

440. THE USE OP THE LACTEALS was at one time 

 thought to be to gather all the digested food and lead it 

 into the Blood.
