 the ductus endolymphaticus which passes off from the saccule enters the cranial 

 cavity through the foramen endolymphaticum and there dilates into the saccus 

 endolymphaticus. This extends back into the neural canal of the vertebral 

 column, where it lies in close apposition to its fellow along the dorsal side of 

 the spinal cord and gives off transverse diverticula which end in small dilata- 

 tions over the posterior root ganglia. The fluid contained in the saccus and 

 its extensions is milk-white, the milkiness being due to the presence of crystals 

 of carbonate of lime (otoliths). The CALCAREOUS GIAXDS are the terminal 

 dilatations of the transverse diverticula above referred to (see Gaup, o<p. cit., 

 p. 261). The function of this peculiar extension of the membranous labyrinth 

 is unknown (for a somewhat similar condition in the Ascalabota, see p. 323),
