A study was conducted to compare the effect of three levels of digitalis on the level of calcium in the heart muscle of dogs. A description of the actual experimental procedure is omitted, but it is sufficient to note that the general level of calcium uptake varies from one animal to another so that comparison of digitalis levels (treatments) had to be blocked on heart muscles. That is, the tissue for a heart muscle was regarded as a block and comparisons of the three treatments were made within a given muscle. The calcium uptakes for the three levels of digitalis, A, B, and C, were compared based on the heart muscles of four dogs. The results are shown in the accompanying table.

Dogs
1	2	3	4
A	B	C	D
1342	1698	1296	1150
B	B	A	C
1608	1387	1029	1579
C	A	C	B
1881	1140	1549	1319
