Bright yellow granules, as large as a small pin-head, usually not morethan 1 mm. in diameter, are found in the pus from the lesions; each of these is acolony of actinomyces which has been extruded from the necrosing tissue. Sucha colony, selected from the pus or examined in a section of the diseased tissue, isseen to be composed of an irregularly round or reniform mass, having a struct-ureless or amorphous centre of degenerated mycelium. From this centre therods of the living mycelium radiate. They are straight or curved, often branch-ing, from 3 to 6 /->? in length, but end to end forming longer threads, and closelypacked together in the mycelium. Outside of this mycelium are the character-istic clubs, irregularly but concentrically disposed, their outer extremitiesbluntly rounded, their inner extremities tapering and pointing toward the cen-tre of the colony, some of them f
