They have projections,points or tails, by which they are joined to other cells,and which may be compared to connecting tubes orhalls of communication between Fig, XL. Brain Cells. This aggregation of cells, like a powerful many-celled magnetic battery, is connected with every partof the system by nerves. These are the ivory trac-ings whose beauty and delicacy are described by theFrenchman, with a just enthusiasm. 152 TRUE MANHOOD. The cells are of a gray color, and the nerves arewhite. To the eye brain substance looks like a softgray jelly with white threads running through gray matter lies in bunches or piles called convo-lutions^ which give to the surface an undulating,wrinkled appearance. The white nerves issue fromthem, converging from every direction and meetingin the center of the brain.
