The sense organs do not differ from those of the frog enough to need special descriptions. Besides the structures we have mentioned in connec- tion with the eye, there must be noticed the lacrymal or tear glands, situated above the outer corner of each eye, as well as Harderian glands corresponding to those of the frog (p. 80). There are no Harderian glands in man. The secretion of the eye glands flows over the 30 Sense Organs.
