I shall next consider, in the light of the hypothesis of trans- portation of specific stuffs, the results of certain experiments that bear on the question. When an oblique piece is cut from a planarian, as indicated in Fig. 1, A, I find that the new head develops not from the center of the piece but far up on one side, Fig. i, B; and always on that side that lay nearer to the head of the plana- rian. The new tail develops out of that part of the posterior side that was originally nearer to the tail of the planarian, (^ I! n.
