The deep face of the epidermis is moulded on the upper surface of the derma; con- sequently, it lodges the papillae, and dips into the follicles and excretory ducts of the glands. SUDORIPAROUS GLAND, MAGNIFIE1> 40 DIAMETERS. a, a, Contorted tubes composing the gland, and uniting m two ex- cretory ducts, 6, 6, which joia into one spiral canal that per- forates the epidermis at c, and opens on its surface at d; the gland IS imbedded in fat vesi- cles, e, e. of the skin ; its external face is not a very exact repetition of the surface of the derma, and is covered with hair. The epidermis tends to equalise, and to fill up, the depressions existing between: the Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Chauveau, A.
