English: Fig. 1.—Trypanosoma gambiense in the blood from a case of sleeping sickness in a European. The ilmlulatory membrane is clearly seen; the head of the organism with its micro nucleus is in Contact with a red blood corpuscle. Magnification 2000 diameters.
Fig. 2.—A. and B. The spirochaete pallidum. A shows the organisms seen in a section of mucous tubercle stained by Levaditi’s silver method; the lowest with 8 equal spirals and a pointed end is the most typical. Magnification 1200. B. Spirochetes in a smear preparation stained by Leishman. Magnification 2260.
Fig. 3.—Section of the brain of a European who died of sleeping sickness, showing an enormous increase of large branching neuroglia cells around a small vessel of the cortex. Magnification 450.

Fig. 6.—Longitudinal section of a perivascular sheath of the cortex of a monkey that died of experimental sleeping sickness. The lar e branching neuroglia cells are seen undergoing pro life ration. Magnification 600.
