The results in this series have followed in their broad featt 

 those of the previous. The difference from those seems one of dej 

 rather than of kind. 



Heidenhain* has observed that in the intestinal mucous membt 

 of the dog the number of cells with oxyphil granulation is inci 

 by a purgative. He leaves it open whether his cells are the same 

 the oxyphil cells of the blood, and Ehrlich could not give a definit 

 opinion on the point. A notable feature in my experiments, of tl 

 series as of the others, has been the great numerical reductk 

 of the oxyphil (^-granulation, coarsely granular) leucocytes in 

 circulating blood. I believe that a similar though much less marlcc 

 diminution of these cells follows the ingestion of a full meal, and al 

 that abstinence from food causes in the blood a higher percentage of 

 the cell (vide infra, p. 205).
