In the general syncytium the amount of exo-plasm has markedly increased. The fibrils are branched and distinct,but of unequal size, the latter characteristic being most obvious in thosebounding the little lacunae in the interstices of the syncjrtium. In a pig 12-| cm. in length the basement membranes are very shatplyand deeply stained and show numerous fibrillar connections with the f^^S^^- <?? J^ /Jr. $;-!L^r<-^^^^ ^^ t^H&. i\ ? :: / W4x^.

The anastomosing mass offibrils now stands out with greater distinctness owing to the compactfascicular arrangement, a fact emphasized by interstitial lacunae whichincrease proportionally as the exoplasmic fibrils are gathered intobundles or fasciculi that
