Kollikerand Waldeyer believed the striations were due to the varicosities of theindividual fibres. Bodecker declares that normal, fully developed enamelis non-striated, and von Ebner holds the same opinion, and claims that thisappearance of transverse striations is due to the method of preparing thespecimens, which are usually mounted in Canada balsam, and as a resultsuffer from a slight acid reaction sufficient to produce the striated appear-ance. Sudduth and Febiger hold to the opinion of Kolliker and Waldeyer,that the striations are due to the varicosities. Williams also maintains thesame opinion, and in his recent investigations denies the statements madeby Hertz, Bddecker, and von Ebner, and claims that while in some specimensthe varicosities are dimly apparent in some parts, they are decided in others,
