ngs of glands, can be seen. Thesevary in number in different places. On microscopic examination,the thickness of the mucosa is found to vary considerably in differ-ent parts. In my specimens it varied from 1 to 4 mm. The aver-age thickness is probably something between 2 and 3 mm. Indetail the mucosa is best described under the following headings : Lining Epithelium. Glands. Interglandular Tissue. Lining Epithelium. This consists of columnar ciliated cells. Their nuclei aremostly elongated in the direction of the long axis of the cell ; theyare like short rods with rounded ends. Many are oval or ovoid ;a few are rounded. For the most part they are placed in thedeeper portions of the cells, only a small amount of cell substancebeing below them ; sometimes the nucleus is quite close to themargin.

In many carefully prepared thin sections a layer of flattenedconnective tissue cells, belonging to the interglandular tissue, cangenerally be recognized, adhering closely to the under surface ofthe layer of columnar epithelium. It is to be regarded as a base-ment membrane. In some specimens it cannot be distinguished. Glands. The glands are not uniformly distributed, being more abundantin some parts than in others. They are tubular, and are single orbranched. The number of branchings is usually only two orthree ; possibly, sometimes, more may be found. The divisionsoccur mainly in the deepest portion of the mucosa ; sometimes inthe outermost portions, even close to thesuiface. Very often theyoccur about the middle of the mucosa. Most of the glands run obliquely to the surface, some beingfound, occasionally, almost parallel with the su
