. The comparative anatomy of the domesticated animals. Veterinary anatomy. THE APPENDAGES OF THE SKIN. 919 In a transverse section of the wall, there are observed around the tubes, in the intertubular substance, as well as in the horny laminae, small irregularly elliptical spaces containing a solid denticulated mass of a brownish tint, which is easily stained with carmine. These bodies are more elongated in the inter- tubular substance than in the walls of the tubes, and have a certain resemblance to the cartilaginous capsules, but especially to the bone cavities filled by their contents. Independently of the hard, dry, and flattened cells, there is found an opaque substance that partly fills the tubes, and which is also sometimes met with in their walls. This material does not differ from the last in its nature ; it is also formed, as has been asserted by Gourdon and Ercolani, of irregular granular cells which are stained by the carminate of • ammonia. Figment-corpuscles are found in the substance of the coloured horn, and are disposed singly, or in small masses, in the epithelial cells of the inter-tubular Fig. HORN-CELLS FROM THE SOLE OF THE HOOF. a, Young cells from the upper surface of the sole; b, cells from the lower surface, or dead horn of the Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Chauveau, A.
