At the bottom of a bouillon culture a mulberry mass formed; it was easilybroken up, and disintegrated when shaken, the fragments resembling small piecesof cotton-wool. When freely transferred, cultures from bouillon and agar could be propagatedon agar. THE LACRYMAL APPARATUS 291 Polymorphism was very pronounced in the cultures. The first cultures showedrods like diphtheria bacilli, which occasionally branched. Long branching threadswith swellings on them were often very obvious ; short rods occurred still morefrequently, and in the older cultures cocco-bacillary forms. Long threads wereespecially well seen when the material was evenly and smoothly spread, and not too ,much teased out. Closely tangled bundles of fibres were never observed, nor was there any radialarrangement. The Streptothrix had only a slight pathogenicity for animals; intravenousinjec
