Thecapillaries are a net-vrork of hair-like tubes,too small to be seen bythe naked eye, intowhich the arteries pourtheir contents. Theyare more numerous inthe brain than in anyother part. From thecapillaries the veinscommence (see PI. 5),and uniting together,and also receiving thecontents of the fourthclass of tubes, they atlast open into anotherpart of the heart, fromwhence the arterieslead out. The fourthclass of tubes, calledlymphatics (see PI. 5*),commences in everypart except the hrainand nerves, and openinto the veins, andthus their contents findtheir way to the , brachial ; FA, fe-moral artery, at thepoint for compression,in case of Fig. 19. followed up through the neck. 5 is the great pneumo-cardio gastric (lung-heart-stomach,) nerve ; (trace down to ita connections). Back and to the right ofthe stomach, as ij; is shown here, is a part of the great nervous plexus, whichmakes it so dangerous to strike a person over the stomach, especially whenit is full. Nervous substance can oear almoet anything better than it can ablow or concussion. If it happooie in drowning the case is usually hopeless. 91 begin or end are represented in the centres, a fact worthy ofcontemplation, (see Fig. 20.) All the nerves appear to be alike in all respects exceptlocation and connections, and they doubtless act alike, and Fig. 20
