 found in the counters, and none in cover-glass films, nor in

 examining specimens from the leucocyte layer of the centri-

Under the conditions of experiment the changes- in the blood 

 generally circulating were as follows : 



1. The specific gravity of the blood was increased. 



2. The specific gravity of the serum was slightly lessened or re- 

 mained not obviously altered. 



3. The haemoglobin content of the unit volume of blood was 

 increased. 



4. The number of chromocytes in the unit volume of blood was 

 increased. 



5. The numerical ratio of leucocytes to chromocytes in the unit 

 volume of blood was always increased, sometimes after a preliminary 

 decrease of the ratio. 



6. The number of leucocytes in the unit volume of blood was at 

 first slightly diminished and then increased ; much later there was 

 sometimes a fall to below normal. 



7. The numerical ratio of coarsely granular leucocytes to chromo- 

 cytes is the unit volume of blood was diminished. 



8. The number of coarsely granular leucocytes wi the unit volume 

 of blood was diminished. 



y. The numerical ratio of coarsely granular to the rest of the leuco- 

 cytes was diminished. 



10. The numerical ratio of finely granular to the rest of the leuco- 

 cytes was greatly increased after a certain time. 



11. The number of hyaline leucocytes in -the unit volume of blood 

 kecame less. 



12. 'Hemoglobin in solution appeared in the plasma of the blood, 

 and -of the lymph in the thoracic duct, and of the exudation fluid in 

 1 t- limb. 



13. There seemed to "be a certain small number of nucleated
