application.
(In ordering it is necessary to state the voltage of
the available electric current, also whether it is
direct or alternating.)

of 20 Ampère, mounted on adjustable stand, encased in
Russian iron box, double collecting lens (adjustable) of
120 mm Aperture, with condensing lens.
Mechanical stage for glass compressors, with movements
at right angles to each other, cooling cell for the
preparation with a continual flow of cold water.

=Microtomes.=
[Illustration: Large Sliding-Microtome.]
Our larger microtomes are heavy and all their adjustments are of the
most accurate construction, the result being that they are very steady
when in use and permit the cutting of very thin and uniform sections.
They are to be had in three different sizes. The larger two are slightly
different in construction from the third. The two former microtomes are
provided with an automatic feed attachement. A heavy knife-carrier
slides smoothly and rapidly on a horizontal track and is so arranged
that it may be manipulated by the hand of the operator alone or by a
wheel and chain device, which tends to assure a perfectly uniform stroke
of the knife.
The objectclamp is raised vertically by a micrometer screw. This motion
is accomplished by turning a large disc having teeth cut into its
periphery and a turn of one tooth being equal to an elevation of 0.0025
mm.
The automatic feed is arranged as follows: With each return of the
knife-carrier to the end of its track pressure is made upon an
adjustable lever which regulates the motion of the micrometer wheel.
This device may be so adjusted as to move the micrometer disc any number
of teeth from one to ten with each sweep of the knife.
