Such granules, differin- som,.u hat in shape in dilTeront cases, abound in tlie cells of tubers and Ki-ams of all sorts, whore they have been stored up for use durnig the process of germination.

If starch- .grannles are subjected for a time to tho action of saliva j It will be found that a portion of each granule has been ' out. leaving an insoluble skeleton behind.
