    Adenoid or lymphatic, tissue makes up the stroma of the lymphatic glaiuls, aiul sometimes called retiform. This tissue is a delicate network of minute fibrils and contains lymplioid cells within its meshes. Adipose or fatty tissue is widely distributed and consists of spherical connective-tissue cells, distended with oil derived from its protoplasm. The nucleus and remaining cell-body have been pushed to one side and appear crescent-sha])ed, while the oil is surrounded by the thin cell-wall. This tissue is held together by a delicate areolar tissue. QUESTIONS. What are the cliaracteristics of epithelium ? Where are epithelial tissues found? How do we divide the cells? Give a classification according to the shape of the cell; according to the function. How are epithelial tissues classified ? Name the four principal varieties. What is simi>le scpiamous epithelium? Stratified epithelium? What is simple columnar epithelium? Stratified epithelium? Describe ciliated epithelium. Where is it found? Describe goblet-cells. Where are pigmented cells found ? Describe glandular epithelium. Where do we find neuro-epithelium? What is endothelium, and where is it found ? From what two layers are most epithelial tissues derived? What are the exceptions? What are connective tissues? What are the characteristics of connective tissues ? Name the three groups of connective tissues. Describe white fibrous; yellow elastic; areolar. Where do we find gelatinous tissue? Where adenoid tissue? Describe adipose tissue? CHAPTER III. CARTILAGE. Cartilage is a variety of connective tissue consisting of cells or corpuscles embedded in a condensed intercellular substance or matrix, the character of which gives rise to three tvpes : the hyaline, i\\o fibrous, and the elastic.
