Messrs. Varnier and Chappuis have obtained a Rontgen -raypicture of several foetuses in the uterus of a living guinea-pig.* Most interesting £ ray pictures can be obtained of fcetal mon-strosities, after removal from the body, which convey anatomicalinformation that could otherwise be obtained only by a tedious anddifficult dissection. The illustration of a two-headed foetus shownin Fig. 169 was taken from a photograph by Mr. Lynn Thomas. In the case of conjugate twins that survive and grow to maturity,such as the
