As feathers are arranged in definite tracts, so also hairs are disposed more abundantly on some parts of the body than on others. 1 The arrectores pili have also the function of compressing the glands, though the latter are provided with muscles of their own, the development of which is in inverse proportion to that of the proper 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 Wiedersheim, Robert, 1848-1923; Parker, W.
