. The American journal of anatomy. Fig. IV. A gland alveolus, with its accompanying intercalated duct leadinginto an intralobular duct. Preparation stained in iron-alum Homog. Imm. 1/12. Oc. 4. giving rise to the rodded variety of cell constituting the salivarytubes, described by Pfliiger, who believed that this form of cell wasactively concerned in the secretory processes of the gland. In an ex-hausted gland, after prolonged stimulation, the cytoplasm is observedto stain more feebly than in the resting gland. Large secretion granulesare never found in these cells, but the cytoplasm itself manifests a finelygranular appearance. The ductules, or intercalary ducts, open into the intralobular ducts,obliquely or at right angles, with an abrupt change from the low, flatcubical cell of the ductule to the high columnar, rodded cell of the intra-lobular duct. (Fig. IV.) The cells are elongated in form, contain butlittle protoplasm and are devoid of granules. The reaction of the 178 Finer Structure of the Glan
