Gross preparations for reference should be at hand and constantly 

 referred to while the microscopic study is carried on. 



5. In the study of the tissues it should be remembered that, 

 though at first distinct, in the adult body there is more or less 

 mingling of the difiFerent tissues; but in this composite structure 

 there is one tissue which from its predominance forms the charac- 

 teristic feature of the structure. The epithelia are the simplest in 

 this as in other respects. The different organs likewise are not 

 isolated and independent units, but are thoroughly permeated by 

 the parts of the vascular and peripheral nervous systems contained 

 within them. 



In this course the tissues and organs will be studied in the 

 order below:

The Epithelia (including Endotheha). 



The Connecting and Supporting Tissues and the 



Skeletal System. 

 Blood and I,ymph; i. e., the fluids of the body and 



their corpuscles. 

 The Muscular Tissues and the Muscular System. 

 The Nervous Tissues and the Peripheral Nervous 



System. 



The Blood and lyymph Vascular Systems. 



The Digestive System. 



The Respiratory System. 



The Urinary Organs. 



The Genital Organs. 



The Skin and Its Appendages. 



The Central Nervous System. 



The Organs of Special Sense. 



During the fall term the principal aim will be to gain a 

 knowledge of the kinds, structure and distribution of the different 

 tissues and a working knowledge of general histological methods. 

 During the winter term the minute anatomy of the different organs 

 will be studied. 



The connective and supporting and the muscular tissues are so 

 closely associated with the organs and systems that they principally
