Owing to the wide connections of nerve cells in the central nervous system, we should expect this center to be affected by stimuli from various sources. ♦See Pawlow, "The Work of the Digestive Glands," translatioii by Thompson, London, 1902; also " Ergebnisse der Physiologie," vol iii,, part i, 1904, and " Archives mteraationales de phyaologie," 1, 119, 1904. Digitized by VjOOQIC THE 8AUVABY GLANDS. 737 As a matter of fact, it is known that the center and through it the glands may be called int...o activity by stimulation of the sensory fibers of the sciatic, splanchnic, and particularly the vagus nerves. So, too, various psychical acts, such as the thought of savory food and the feeling of nausea preceding vomiting, may be accompanied by a flow of saliva, the eflFect in this case being due probably to stimula- tion of the secretion center by nervous impulses descending from the higher nerve centers. Lastly, the medullary center may be inhibited as well as stimulated. The well-known efifect of fear, embartassment, or anxiety in producing a parched throat may be explained in this way as due to the inhibitory action of nerve impulses arising in the cerebral centers.
