Abstract
A CHANGE has been observed in the appearance of the lymph-glands of rats bearing a Jensen sarcoma, the animals being examined usually fifteen to eighteen days after the subcutaneous inoculation of the tumour. While the lymph-glands of normal rats were found to be almost entirely of a light yellowish colour, a more or less large number of the lymph-glands of the tumour-bearing rats showed, to a varying extent and degree, a red discoloration. The change occurred in glands of all regions, although unequally, and in an irregular manner in different animals. The size of the tumour and the age of the animal, within the given limits, appeared to have little influence.
