The mucous membrane is smooth on its surface, which is composedof columnar and ciliated epithelium. Cruveilhier describes it, how-ever, as presenting indistinct papillae, while some earlier physiologistsinsist that it is studded with free villi: errors which have probablyhad their origin, as M. Robin assumes, in the extremities of the gland-ular follicles becoming liberated from their epithelial attachment bypost-mortem change, and which find in analogy an apparent corrobora-tion in the condition of the membrane as observed in the uterinecornua of some mammalia. During pregnancy, the epithelium becomestransformed; it loses all trace of the vibratile cilia, and the cells arechanged from the columnar to the pavement variety. IV.] BLOODVES
