Excerpt from The American Journal of Anatomy, 1915, Vol. 17 I have prepared the following summary so that what we know Of the comparative distribution: Of mitochondria in vertebrate nerve cells may be seen at a glance. In it, the forms 111 which mitochondria are described by me for the first time, are given in italics, the others being recorded in plain type.

Excerpt from The American Journal of Anatomy, 1915, Vol. 17 I have received valuable help from my father in this work, for which I am very thankful. I have prepared the following summary so that what we know of the comparative distribution of mitochondria in vertebrate nerve cells may be seen at a glance. The evidence which these investigators have presented will now be considered. Guinea-pig Nageotte ('09 a, p. 472) demonstrated certain bacilli-like bodies in peripheral nerve fibers fixed in Tellyesniczky's bichromate acetic fluid and stained with Altmann's anilin fuchsin. He found them also after preliminary fixation in 10 per cent formalin followed by Tellyesniczky's fluid and staining in the same way.

Excerpt from The American Journal of Anatomy, 1915, Vol. 18 Measurements Of both the fresh and the thus fixed tectorial mem branes gave an average length Of the membrane, in pigs at about term, Of mm. In width and thickness it was found to decrease gradually and evenly from its end at the apex of the cochlea, where it is much the largest, to the narrow and thin end of its basal coil, which ceases to project in width beyond the hair cells of the spiral organ. In the first or apical coil, the width Of the membrane was found to be such that its outer edge projects considerably beyond the outer hair cells Of the organ.

Excerpt from The American Journal of Anatomy, Vol. 15: 1913 1914 The present paper includes statistical data upon certain phases of the growth Of the body as a whole and more especially the relative growth and variability Of the individual organs in the albino rat. A study Of this kind may be Of value in two respects. In the first place, it should give a better insight into the nature Of growth, a fundamental biological phenomenon worthy Of more study for its own sake. In the second place, a more complete knowledge Of the process Of growth, including the limits Of nor mal variation, should be Of value for reference in experimental work Of various kinds, for which the rat is Often used.
