Text Appearing Before Image:
red years ago, was appliedto certain tiny living specks which appeared in infusions of hay, etc. The animal-cules so named were classed with the worms and radiated animals, or zoophytes.As the microscope improved, infusorians were found to possess a considerableamount of structure. Ehrenberg attributed to them a highly complex organisa-tion, supposing them to possess intestines, nervous system, etc. Later observationsnegatived these views, and showed them to be animals formed of one cell orcomposed of a colony of one-celled individuals. It is true that this cell, or unit-mass of protoplasm, may show a wonderful amount of differentiation, what with itsnucleus, contractile vacuole, mouth and gullet, its variously arranged cilia or flagclla,its contractile fibres, its separation into an outer denser and an inner more fluidprotoplasm, and its horny cups, stalks, etc. Most of the species here described livein ponds and ditches, the larger forms preferring clear to stagnant and muddy water.
