"It's a ghastly prospect, Doctor, but I believe you." "As a matter of fact, I can cite as an example a man from one of the eastern universities who worked out a tremendously elaborate and detailed project which mushroomed into years of time and scores of papers. It had to do with certain vasodilators and certain vasotensors which he demonstrated with blood stream by means of a special little assay which he invented. He contrived to display a certain [??] section of the [??] abdominal tissues which tissues carried demonstrable blood vessels. So he would inject his vasopressor principle into the experimental ?? and then watch the contraction of the arteries or arteroids in the tissue under the scope. Then he'd give the vasodilator and show the occules expanding with this test in a basic he then punctuates an entire system of physiology, so to speak, including opposing principles each of the demonstrated substances: a vasodilator to oppose
