HISTOLOGY OF THE DENTAL TISSUES. 49 the endings of the nerves of the pulp. His observations were made uponthe pulps of the canine teeth of young rabbits and guinea-pigs, some ofwhich were stained with gold chloride ; others were fixed for a short timein dilute chromic acid solution, teased out and mounted in this the gold-chloride method the results were negative. The chromicacid method enabled him to make out numerous medullated and uon-medullated nerve-fibres in the tooth-pulp. Lying beneath the odonto-blastic layer was an especially dense net-work of non-medullated nerve-fibres. From this net-work he discovered fine fibrillse passing between theodontoblasts, some of which could be traced for a considerable distancebeyond. He did not, however, succeed in tracing these fibrillse into thedentinal tubules, but he felt sure, although unable to demonstrate it, thatthe
