This is shown diagraniraatically by Fig:ure 122, in theuse of which and of the others presented in the chapter, it must beborne in mind that the action is not mechanical, but purely chemical,and that the figures are mere diagrams and represent bodies whichnever have been seen. Figure 122 is but another way of expressingthe same idea as Figure 117. The immune bodies of this class are known as Receptors of thetklrd order. When they are formed and thrust out like the antitoxinsinto the blood stream in consequence of some immunizing process, theyare known as xbnhoceptors; and those which are not so
