The sublingual gland possesses the general arrangement alreadyconsidered in connection with the parotid gland, its peculiarity beingthe absence of the intermediate division of the duct, the intralobularor mucous tubes passing at once into the acini. The cells lining the saccules are encountered in all stages of secre-tion. During rest the majority are clear, being filled with homo-geneous viscid mucus. After the discharge of this secretion, fol- b « d Section of human parotid gland, exhibiting general ar-rangement of lobules (a) ; b, interlobular connective tissuecontaining large ducts (c) and blood-vessels (v) ; d, intra-lobular ducts.
