gently upon the finger tip with eIa SIS

capillaries. An instrument based on
that observation measures the capil-

finger tips is nearly half the pressure

In the capillaries the important
business of the circula ton is trans.
acted. There the blood delivers to the
body cells the oxygen the red cor
puscles have carried from the air in
the lungs. and takes on load of car.
bon dioXid to carry back to the lungs.
All these details may be seen by the
student of physiology when the web

Your formula is almost exactly cor

l should try and give the baby sew
