. Fig. 31.—Perpendicular Section of Horn of Wall. ductor of heat, the absence of bad after-effects on the foot testifies. In a previous page we have described the manner of growth of the horn tubules, and noted the direction they took in the wall; also, we have noticed the existence between them of an intertubular horn or cement. Those who wish to give this subject further study will find an excellent series of articles by Fleming in the Veterinarian for 1871. We shall content ourselves here with introducing one or two diagrams and photo-micro- graphs, and dealing with the histology very brief

Under the microscope the longitudinal striation of the wall is found to be due to the direction taken by the horn tubules.
