The widely accejjted view of Ebner, that the stripes aredue to air contained in the interfascicular clefts, hits been modified by \yalkh(jtt, who regards the markings as due to local diminution in thecalcihcati(3n of the enamel-prisms during certain periodsin the growth of the tissue when the central as well asthe cortical substance of a great number of columnsfails to take up sutificient lime salts.
