Figures 1, 2, and 3 are low power drawings of digested testis of a young man, a bull, and a cat respectively; while Fig. 4 is a drawing under much greater magnification of an intertubular space in a cat. The cells, both tubular and interstitial, have been removed, leaving only the bare framework of the organ. It is seen that, while the stroma of the intertubular spaces differs in detail in the different animals, it is in each essentially a fibrous meshwork, the empty spaces of which were previously occupied by the interstitial cells. High magnification shows that the. Fig. 1. Section of digested testis of a young man. All cells have been removed, leaving only the walls of the tubules (<) and the intertubular con- nective-tissue framework. X about 80. fibers are composed of wavy fibrils. In the sections shown in the figures the amount of stroma is greatest in the man and least in the cat. The size of the meslies varies all the way from that just sufficient to accom- modate one interstitial cell to those capable of lodging a number of them. In the case of the cat the larger bundles of fibrils often run parallel for a considerable distance, suggesting an arrangement of the cells in rows; but even here there are occasional exchanges of cross-fibrils between the larger bundles. The Mallory preparations give results which are quite confirmatory of the digestion methods, and supplement them, often show- ing the cross-fibrils between the cells distinctly. Thus, Fig. 5 illustrates a portion of a cat's testis in which with ordinary methods tliere might.
