    thread-like prolongation may be seen penetrating the layer be- neath, providing the cell has been centrally sectioned. Large horns are projected from the outer extremity of the cells, branches from which provide the nerve-fibrils seen in the last- observed layer. The cells bodies take the eosin, and the nuclei the logwood.) 6. The granular layer. (This is the layer seen so distinctly with the low power. It consists of innumerable small, deeply hsema.-stained bodies, usually spherical, which are, as is believed, mostly neuroglia cells. These nucleated elements are imbedded in an exceedingly fine matrix of neuroglia [Klein] fibrils. Search carefully for the axis cylinder processes of the Purkinje cells which pierce this layer, and follow them into the white matter below.) 7. The white substance. (This consists of medullated nerves which arise largely from the cells of the second gray layer. Klein has also traced fibres into the nuclear layer, and demonstrated their distribution to the small ganglion cells of the lamina, and to the network of the outer gray substance.)
