Professor Jacques Loeb, the biolo- gist, has succeeded through a series of experiments he has just made at the University of California in confirm- ing theories he has long held that the polarity observed in the regeneration of the animal body does not exist in the cells, but in the streaming of re- generating processes of the body, moving from the basal to the oral pole. In the bulletin bearing the title, “Concerning Dynamic Conditions Which Contribute Toward the De- termination of the Morphological Polarity of Organisms,” which was is- sued at the university to-day, Dr. Loeb gives the results of his experiments. The value of Dr. Loeb’s experiments lies in his success in proving with ani- nal bodies the theories that other | scientists had advanced after experi- ments with plant life. In the eight- eenth century two investigators, Hamel and Bonnet, arrived at the con- clusion that certain sap currents are responsible for the fact that in plants at one end of a piece cut off from a | branch an apex arises and at the other {end root is formed. Du Hamel as- sumed that a specific sap causes the formation of roots and that this sap moves basalward in the stem of the plant, while the fluids which give rise to the formation of branches move up- ward. | Dr. Loeb took his cue from the re- | sults obtained by the investigations of these and other scientists. The idea that sap currents and the collecting of materials form the cause of re- generation and organ formation sug- gested to him a fruitful field for re- | search. It was the general belief of scientific men then that the individual cells in the animal body are polarized and that therefore there is produced at the basal end organs different from ! those at the ordl end. But the experi- ments with the plants led Dr. Loeb to believe that the same conditions ob- | tained in animal life as in plant life, and so he pursued his investigations to prove the morphological polarity of the animal body. LOEB'S EXPLANATION. | By morphological polarity Dr. Loeb explains that he means the fact that a piece cut off from the organism at | that end which in the uninjured ani- | mal was directed toward the oral pole, lor head, again forms an oral pole, while at the opposite cut end a root, or aboral pole, is formed. If, for ex- ample, a square piece is cut from the body of an actinian, whose body is | comparable with a hollow cylinder, and | if one side of the square is parallel to the long axis of the animal, new tenta- | | cles arise only at that side of the square which was“directed toward the | former oral pole of the animal. | _ In carrying out his experiments Dr. | Loeb used an animal, the hydroid, in which could easily be observed the mi- gration of material which was asso- | ciated with the formation of its or- | gans. This animal consists of a long, | tubular nnbranched stem, a root, | usually branched, and a polyp, or | bead. Thz outer surface of the stem is surrounded by a hard material, and | the living cells lie inside this tube. | Dr. Loeb found that if a pilece be { cut from the body of the animal there | always appeared a new polyp and never a root at the oral cut end. This new growth began at a sufficiently high temperature in two or three days. At the aboral, or root end of the seg- | ment there was formed sometimes a | new root and sometimes a polyp. If |a polyp forms at the aboral end it | arises much more slowly—often a week | later than the polyp at the oral or head end. If a piece is cut from the stem of the animal it can generally be told with certainty from the phe- | nomena of regeneration which was the oral cut end. | rative, Dr. Loeb says: FORMATION OF ORGANS. “I found further that at the end at which a new polyp forms the formation | of this organ may be, recognized from the fact that red pigment granules collect at this end in relatively great | density. New pigment granules are transported by a current of fluid to ! this end and evidently remain lying ' | or stuck in the neighborhood of the | cut surface. The stream of fluid is kept up by ciliary movement. I am of the opinion that such a transportation of materfals by the stream of fluid to- ward the cut end is one of the con- ditions of the formation of the organs |in the animal, and that the polarity | of that stem—that is,*the fact that the | polyp forms earlier at the oral pole— | | depends on the fact that the organ- | forming substances, possibly the red iplgmenl granules, collect in sufficient | sooner at the oral than at | | quantity | the aboral end. This assumption is based on a series of experiments that | T made.” Dr. Loeb also demonstrated to his satisfaction that by inhibiting the polyp formation at the oral end of | the animal it is possible to accelerate | the polyp formation at the aboral end. { Upon this point he says that if the current, by means of which the polyp | forming materials are carried DOAN’S KIDNEY PILLS.

Fourteen of the pieces were tied in the middle by a fine silk thread. ! The remaining fourteen served as a control.

Results going to prove the investi- gator's theories were obtained in other ways, and of these he says: correlate all these observations, we | get the idea that the cause of the nor- mal polarity which appears’in the re- generation of a piece cut from the stem of a tubularian is based on the condition that the circulation favors the motion of various substances in the direction from the aboral to the | oral pole.” | In conclusion Dr. Loeb finds that the experiments show that the polarity ob- served in the regeneration of the ani- ! mal is not to be referred to a mor- | phological polarity of the individual | cells, but to a process which is com- parable as to its variety with a pro- cess of streaming in the direction of | the aboral to the oral pole. The re- sults suggested the idea that a liga- ture placed around the middle of the stem must abolish polarity, an idea | that was tested and found to be true. b VaI s ek | PLURAL WIFE'S BROODING RESULTS IN IN NITY | Salt Lake Woman, Haunted by Ostra- cism, Is Sent to the State Asylum.
