. A manual of diseases of the nervous system. al fibres measure about•06 mm. As a rule, two or three of these fine fibres enter the pole ofa spindle; as they pass towards the equatorial region they undergodivision, so that at this region of the spindle there may be eight or ten APPENDIX. 673 fine fibres, some of ttem measnriiig only 008 mm. At a certain pointin the equatorial region some of the muscle-fibres lose their trans-verse striation and nuclei appear in the substance of the nuclei gradually increase in number till they completely fill thefibre, then after a short distance they become less numerous, and themuscle-fibre again resumes its striation. At the equatorial region themuscle-fibres do not fill the whole spindle, but lie to one side. Asthey pass to the distal end of the spindle they become joiaed againand pass out of the spindle as two or three fibres. It will be seenfrom the above description that a transverse section of the spindlemay at a given point in the equatorial region seem to contain no.
