(After Toldt.) We must now study the continuation of the optic and olfactory nervesafter leaving their nuclei. For a reason to be immediately mentioned, I shall omit the secondary optic tract, andshall pass at once to the olfactory. Thisrises from the cells of the bulbus olfac-torius which have already been describedas their glomeruli. From this point thefibers run but a short distance only. Theygradually pass into the gray substance ofthe optic tract which immediately joins thebulbus posteriorly and terminate in its part appears to run on posteriorlyto the point where the tractus olfactoriusarises from two roots, one
