lie conditions, and not invariably them"
lJr. Woodard, cf Washington, says:
"rhe average Of all the measurements OF

dogs blood But it is not rare to find
specimens Of dogs blood in which the

remembered that the measurements OF
human blood by so-ealled high au;hori-

takes ON serious aspect, and juries
should receive ii with great caution.
