From my standpoint, a simpler and more logicalexplanation asserts itself, viz., the arterioles of the pale areabeing alone supplied by the cervical sympathetic, they contractwhen the latter is stimulated; these small vessels being mark-edly constricted as shown liy tlie pallor, the circulation throughthem is blocked and the blood accumulates in the other ves-sels—those of the congested area. That the vessels of one side 1190 INTERNAL SECRETIONS IN PHARMACODYNAMICS. only should be alfected is obviously due to the fact that eachside has its own arterial supply derived from the correspondingcarotid.
