Tho origin Of the Coll,

Gradually the researches of such
accurate observers as Unger, Nageli,
Kolliker, Reichart and Remak tend
ed to confirm the opinion Of Won
Mohl that cells spring only from
cells, and finally Rudolf Virchow
brought the matter to demon
stration about 1850. His "omnis
oellula Q cellula" became from that
time one of the accepted data Of
physiology. This was supplement-
ed a little later by Fleming's "om-
mis- nucleus Q nuoleo," when still
more refined methods of observation
had shown that the part'o of the cell
which always first undergoes change
preparatory to new cell formation
ia the all essential nucleus. Thus
the nucleus was restored to the i'm.
portant position which Schwann and
Schleiden had given 1t, but with
greatly altered significance.
Instead of being a structure gen.

substance and disappearing as soon
as its function of cell formation was
accomplished, the nucleus was now
known as the central and permanent
feature Of every cell, indestructible
while the cell lives; itself the divi-
sion product of a pre-existing nu-
