The present 33rd Edition of our Catalogue relating to Microscopes and Microscopical Accessories exhibits some modifications as compared with the 32.nd Edition, which appeared in 1902, occasioned, mainly, by the introduction of several new forms of Stands. The construction of Stands III and IV — regarding whose arrangements we have already given full particulars in special prospectuses - has resulted in conferring certain advantages, rendered possible by limiting the number of the types, and by greater simplification in the mechanical equipment. Further, we have manufactured quite a simple Stand for laboratory use, more in accordance with present requirements of microscopical technic than our earlier small Stands. A detailed prospectus relating to this new Stand V has already been published. Ill the majority of the achromatic objectives, owing to progress contin- ually being made in division of labour with the manufacture of these systems, we are enabled thereby to effect important reductions in price. For details we would refer to the accompanying circular. The list of the Magnifiers, the Dissecting Stands and Lens-Holders has been omitted in the present edition, since a special price list containing them will appear shortly. The general price list appended to the last edition is in the present omit- ted, the entry of the prices against each item being considered as sufficient. New apparatus or changes in construction appearing for the first time in this Catalogue are as follows: Stand III, pp. 48, 49; Stand III M, pp. 50, 51; Stand IV, pp. 52, 53; Stand V, pp. 45, 55 ; Corneal Microscope with GrULLSTRAND's Appliance for lateral illumin- ation, p. 65 ; Stand XI (monocular image-erecting prism Microscope), pp. 66, 67 ; Micro-spectro-photometer with grating, p. 88. The two important new constructions in the sphere of microscopy, Appliances for the investigation of Ultra-microscopical Particles by SlEDENTOPF and ZsiGMONDY and the Micro-photographical Appliances for Ultra-violet Light by KCtHLER are not included in the present Catalogue. Regarding this apparatus we must refer to the detailed descriptions and price lists published by us during the course of the past year. Objectives and Oculars. The Glass Works] of SCHOTT & GENOSSEN, which make a speciality of glasses for optical and other scientific purposes as the outcome of exhaustive ex- periments, with our co-operation, extended over several years and carried out by SCHOTT and ABBE, succeeded in 1884 in producing a series of |new glasses possessing certain refractive |and (dispersive properties which [render them more valuable for the construction of microscope lenses than the crown and flint glasses superseded by them. The use of these | glasses, combined with the application of entirely new formulae, has enabled us, since 1886, to produce microscope objectives with markedly superior correction of both chromatic and sphejri- cal aberration and, consequently, effecting a much [greater con cent r|a- tion of light in the image than had previously been attainable. We introduced simultaneously oculars specially adapted for use with these objectives which, beside facilitating certain other advantages of minor importance, iproduce alm|ost per- fect achromat-ism an|d yield a sharp image over the w|h|ole area of the visual field. By a special catalogue published in August 1886 these new combinations were first made known under the designations of "A|pochroma|ti;c Objectives", "Compensating Oculars" and "Projection Oculars" respectively; and they have since been most extensively adopted, have met with general approbation, and have given most ample proofj of the exceptional value of their utility in the field of scientific research. Side by side with the new objectives and oculars we ^continue to supply our older achromatic objectives with their ' accompanying ordinary oculars. For, although in the more difficult branches of microscopical research the apo- chromatic objectives are to an increasing extent supplanting the older objectives, yet there are a great many problems in microscopy that do not demand the highest attainable degree of optical perfection, and in the majority of such cases the older "achromatic" microscope will render as good and sufficient service as ever, provided the instrument be good of its kind, i. e., skilfully and carefully made. The objectives and oculars of the older type have certainly this advant- age that, thanks to their much simpler construction, really good lenses of this class can be supplied at prices considerably lower than those of the lenses of the new series, which are much more complicated and involve in their production an extraordinary degree of manual skill. We should not omit to mention that all advantages derived from the introduction of new glasses and of the fluorites, and the adoption of improved formulae have been applied equally to the objectives of the older type. The improvements thus effected are of con- siderable importance, especially in the higher powers of the dry and immersion series, which may therefore, after the example of other makers of similar con- structions, appropriately be termed "Semi-apochromatic objectives", or to part, also "Fluorite Systems". To the two types of objectives just mentioned there has been added recently yet a third, computed by VON RoHR: the type of the Monochromats. The special features of this system are : a very perfect union of rays (spherical correction) for light rays of a definite wave-length chosen at will, the lack of a correction of chromatic aberration and the composition of the system from uncemented single lenses, which are all formed out of the same material. Since there is no chromatic correction at all, this system can only be employed in illumination with strictly monochromatic light. Such objectives are manufactured for the present only for the Micro-photo- graphic Appliances for Ultra-violet Light, spoken of in the preface, since the mono- chromatic light employed makes objectives of this correction appear suitable. They are corrected for a wave-length 275 (iji, all lenses consisting of molten quartz. We also supply a series of oculars, specially for use with these Mono- chromats for ultra-violet light whose lenses are made from quartz crystals. Since 1808 all our manufacturing processes follow the system introduced into our works by Professor ABBE, a system which is based upon complete theoretical computation of all the constructive data previous to actual manufacture. By this method it has become possible, through judicious division of labour in the various stages of manufacture under competent scientific super- vision, to employ a large number of operatives in the production of lenses of the greatest possible perfection. The necessity of empirical tests has been entirely obviated by precise mathe- matical computation of every detail of construction combined with exact technical methods and systematic control of each phase of manufacture. This ensures an = 8 = extraordinary degree of uniformity in the highest as well as in the lowest powers of our lenses, whilst excluding the bare possibility of inferior productions. All objectives are uniformly free from spherical aberrations up to the marginal zone (assuming correct thickness of the cover-glass with the higher powers) and, as far as possible, from chromatic aberrations also. Special consideration is also given to the compensation of the aberrations in the extra- axial part of the field and to the flatness of the image. Free working distance. Owing to the importance of a good working distance for the convenient and safe employment of the higher powers particular attention has been given to this factor in calculating the formulae of the various glasses. Our high power objectives possess therefore unusually large work- ing distances in comparison to their focal length and aperture (see Tables on pp. 15, 22 and 26). Tube-length. The objectives specified in this catalogue, so long as they are supplied in the ordinary mount, are all adjusted for a tube-length of 160 mm (about 6y2 in.), reckoned from the shoulder of the objective screw to the upper end of the draw -tube on which the ocular rests. In Fig. 1, this length is indicated by T. The tube-length may be read off on the larger stands of our make by the divisions on the draw-tube. The interposition of any apparatus, such as a revolving nose-piece, a sliding objective-changer, &c., between the tube and the objective necessitates the shorten- ing of the tube by the length of such intermediate piece so as to make the whole distance between objective shoulder and ocular equal to 16O mm (or about 61/, inches). The position of the ocular is usually somewhat higher in the cane of var - ous oculars of special construction, such as micrometer, screw micrometer, sjiec- troscoiiic oculars, <£c. When using such oculars this must therefore be ttttoived for, objective-changers, &c,, being, if necessary, omitted in order to maintain the correct tube-length. The lower-power achromatic objectives as far as C may also without appreciable loss, be used on English stands with 10-inch tubes. All the other objectives, particulary those of the apochro- matic series, perform more or less imperfectly on stands of the English type, unless specially adjusted. If the objectives are to be used with tubes differing from the usual length, this fact should be expressly noted in the orders. Thickness of cover-glass. All objectives in fixed mounts are, unless other- wise ordered, corrected for a medium thickness of cover-glass, between 0.15 and 0.20 mm.

V, Full Size. Qavt IO jectives, that thickness of the cover-glass which gives the most perfect correction is indicated on the side of the mount by small figures representing milli- metres. With those objectives, which we supply in fixed mounts only, it is, as a rule, sufficient for ordinary work to use cover-glasses of an estimated thickness, but for very exacting tasks we recommend the use of a cover-glass gauge (see p. 79). A simple method of fairly accurately determining the thickness of cover- glass requisite when using one of our large or medium stands is explained on p. 42. Jf it be desired that an objective should be adjusted for a cover-glass differing front the usual thickness, or for use without cover-glass, this requirement should be specified in the order. Objectives with correction adjustment. Fig. 2. The divisions and numbers on the correction collar (bb) , read off by a fixed index , indicate (in h u n - dredths of a millimetre) that thickness of cover-glass which gives the best correction corresponding to the position of the collar. The correction for cover-glass thickness must always be carefully adjusted - particularly in the case of the apo- chromatic objectives 6 mm, 4 mm, 3 mm (dry) and 2.5 mm (water immersion) otherwise the efficiency of the lenses will be greatly impaired. The homogeneous immersion objectives are supplied in fixed mounts] only, since their efficiency, within rather wide limits, is independent of the thickness of the cover-gla|ss, and also because any alteration in the lens distances would interfere with the perfection of their correction. Consid- erable variations in the thickness of the cover- glasses are best compensated for by slightly lengthening the body-tube in exceedingly thin cover-glasses, „ „ shortening „ „ „ „ excessively thick ., „ The immersion fluid which we recommend for homogeneous objectives is slightly thickened Cedar-wood Oil (from Juniperus virginiana) as used by us from the first. We. expressly desire to caution against the use of immersion fluids derived from other sources, with our objec- tives, as the use of fluids of irregular refractive and dispersive power may entail considerable impairment of the optical perform- ances of the objectives.

(Full Size.) 1 1 Each time after use the objectives should be made scrupulously clean. The oil adhering should be soaked up with linen or blotting paper, and then the front lens together with its mount should be most carefully wiped dry with a piece of very soft linen moistened by a drop of benzine or xylol. ~ a b fig. 3. Cap-bottle for Immersion oil No. 2005 and 2010.' (V2 Full Size.) The two little bottles shown in Figs. 3a,. and 3b afford comfort and convenience in using the immersion oil. The cap and r o'd of the bottle, No. 2005, are made of glass, those of the No. 2010, which we originally made on specifications supplied by Dr. L. MACH (see "Zeitschr. f. Mikrosk.", Vol. XIV, 1897, pp. 348—350), consist of metal. With each homogeneous immersion objective of our own make we supply gratis one of MACH's bottles with a separate flash con- taining about 15 f/r. of Cedar-wood Oil. For prices, ordered independently, see below. The expression "Numerical Aperture", or "Aperture" simply, was intro- duced in 1873 by Professor ABBE on the basis of his own theoretical investi- gations. The value of the numerical aperture is determined by the equation : num. Ap. = n. sin n, n being equal to the refractive index of the medium situated between the cover- glass and the front lens of the objective, u representing half the angle of aperture. The numerical aperture of a lens determines all its essential qualities: the brightness of the image increases with a given magnification, other things being equal, in proportion to the square of the aperture]; the resolYing and de- fining powers are directly profportional to it'; the power of differentiating depth (the focal depth) is, for the same object medium, proportional to the co- tangent of half the angle of aperture.

The mounts of all objectives for monocular observation are provided with the English standard screw of about 20 mm (3/4 in.) external diameter. The name of our firm is engraved on the mounts of all our objectives; on the apochromatic objectives are further engraved the aperture, focal length and tube- length for which they are adjusted, and on the achromatic lenses their distinguishing letters. When ordering objectives and oculars which are intended for use with stands not made by us, it is advisable to send us the tube in question for adaptation. *Apoehromatie Objectives. We cannot here do more than briefly describe the essential features of the apochromatic objectives and must refer those who wish to make a more com- plete study of the scientific aims and principles which govern the construction of these lenses, to the paper of Professor ABBE, entitled "Uber Verbesse- rungen des Mikroskops mit Hilfe neuer Arten optischen Glases" (Sitzungsberichte der Med.-naturwissensch. Gesellschaft zu Jena, 1886, Vol. XX, pp. 107 — 125, ABBE, "Gesammelte Abhandlungen" I, pp. 450 — 472), and to Dr. CZAPSKI'S work on the "Theorie der optischen Instrumente", Breslau 1893, 2nd Edition, Leipzig 1904. The peculiar characteristic which, from the optical point of view, distinguishes the objectives of this series from all lens systems previously applied to micro- scopes lies in the simultaneous realisation of two conditions of concentration of rays, which conditions had hitherto not been fulfilled by any other optical system, viz: 1) the union of three different colours of the spectrum in one point of the axis, that is to say, the elimination of the secondary spectrum left uncorrected in the older achromatic lenses, and 2) the correction of the spherical aberration for two different colours, in contradistinction to the usual correction for one colour, that in the brightest region of the spectrum, only. With all optical systems constructed up to 1886 the greatest sharpness of the image was limited to one particular colour of the light transmitted, while the other rays give more or less confused images, appearing partly as colour fringes surrounding the sharpest image and partly as a general haze spread over the whole field. But with the apochro- matic lenses the images are for all colours of the spectrum nearly equally sharp. The quality of the image will therefore be always uniformly perfect whether white or monochromatic light be employed for illumination. Again, in the older series complete colour correction is obtained for one zone of the objective only, a marked deterioration being observable towards the margin and the centre of the aperture, whilst in the apochromatic lenses uniformly perfect colour correction is obtained for a 1 1 zones alike. Consequently, in using ABBE'S test plate for instance, scarcely any more colour is perceived with extreme oblique il- lumination than with semi-lateral or with central light. Finally, with the ordinary achromatic objectives, even within the zone of their most complete colour correction, only two colours at a time can be united in one point and only for this pair of colours can the images fall on the same spot, considerable focal difference remaining for all others. But, as already mentioned, three colours are brought to a focus in the apochromatic objectives, whereby the focal differences of the various sections of the spectrum are reduced to fractions varying from 1/1 to l/lo of their original magnitude, i. e., are practically eliminated, and this, we will repeat, is done in equal degree for all zones of the objective. The images due to different colours, each one individually corrected, are thus rendered perfectly coincident and collectively form the final image 1). The practical advantages of these new objectives are obvious. Their considerably increased power of concentrating the light with ordinary visual observ- ation or with any other mode of application - - and this under all possible conditions of illumination, central or oblique, white or monochromatic -- estab- lishes their acknowledged superiority over all earlier constructions , both with respect to optical power and diversity of applicability. The natural colours of objects, even delicate differences of tint, are faithfully reproduced by these objectives. The images are nearly as sharp close to the margin of the field as they are in the centre. It is true that, owing to their large aperture and comparatively great working distance, even in these objectives a slight curvature of the image cannot be entirely avoided. Therefore the marginal and central portions of the field do not appear sharply in focus simultaneously, but have to be focussed in succession by means of the micrometer screw. As a result of their great light-gathering power these objectives admit of the use of oculars of very high power, while still retaining satisfactory precision and brightness of the image and thus giving high magnifying powers ') Achromatisa t ion of a higher order in our sense of the term is both theoretically and practically quite another thing than a mere improvement, in degree, of ordinary achromatism, such as would result from a diminution of the secondary spectrum while yet only two colours are united; or than achromatisation embodying the .principles here indicated but limited to one particular zone of the objective, as would, for instance, be the case if suitable glasses were introduced in constructions of ordinary type. -- Professor ABBE has introduced the word "apochromatic" as a definite technical term for this particular kind of achromatism, so long familiar to scientists as a theoretical idea but only recently realised practically. In order to avoid ambiguity it is desirable that this expression should retain its original meaning as clearly defined by its author, and any attempt to utilise it for pur- poses of trade advertisement of any other casual improvement in colour correction should be dis- countenanced.

The list of apochromatic objectives on page 15 specifies in addition to par- ticulars of the numerical aperture and foci also the corresponding initial magnifi- cation, i. e., the magnification which the objective alone would give at the distance of distinct vision if used as a single lens. This is simply 25U (distance of distinct vision in millimetres) divided by the focal length of the objective (also given in millimetres). For instance, the initial magnification of a 3 mm objective is: 250 The numerical apertures indicated in the table are the guar- anteed minimum values. Durability of the new Glasses. In reply to numerous enquiries and, in some cases, publicly expressed doubts we would here state that the kinds of glass used by us since 1 *;>,"> in the construction of apochromatic lenses, and in a limited degree for the higher powers of achromatic objectives also, have now been so amply tested as to offer an absolute guarantee for their permanency. In all cases where one of the lenses of an objective supplied by us should exhibit spontaneous changes, we shall continue, in the future (as we have done in the past), to repair such objectives at our own cost, substituting a new lens made of glass which has been thoroughly tested and proved to be permanent. To this promise we attach, however, the condition that the objective in question be sent to us without previous meddling by others - - such as dis- mounting with a view to cleaning - - since any interference, by inexperienced hands, tends in many cases to convert a slight irregularity, easily rectified by us, into a serious, or even irreparable, defect. We should also point out that owing to the hyper-hemispherical form of the front lens, which is held in position by a very narrow ridge at the extreme edge of the setting, the apochromatic homogeneous immersion objec- tives of 2 mm and 3 mm focus and 1.40 num.

As to the kind of immersion fluid to be used with homogeneous immersion objectives see pp. 10 and 11. By "Free working distance" as specified in the foregoing table is to be under- stood the distance between the upper surface of a cover-glass 0.17 mm thick and the lower surface of the lens mount, the lens being sharply focussed for an object situated immediately below the cover-glass. As this quantity depends upon the metil mount of the front lens, it is necessarily subject to unavoidable slight variations, and the values given in the table are, therefore, only approximate. The diameter of the visible area of the object is governed by the size of the diaphragm of the ocular. The table specifies in millimetres the visible circular area of the object in the case of each combination of component objectives and oculars. These values, too, are slightly fluctuating, as minor variations in the diameter of the diaphragm are also inevitable. -- dTi— w Compensating Oculars. All objectives of considerable aperture, from their peculiar construction (hemispherical front lens), exhibit certain colour defects in the extra- axial portion of the visual field (chromatic difference cf magni- fication, See DlPPEL, "Das Mikroskop", 2nd Edition, Brunswick 1882, pp. 225—227 : CZAPSKI, "Theorie der optischen Instrumente", 2ml Edition, Leipzig lldU, pp. 182, 368). The differently coloured elementary images which combine to form the final image are of different magnitudes, the blue being larger than the red. Whether an image be projected by such an objective without oculars, or whether it be examined with one of the ordinary oculars, colour fringes will be observed, increasing towards the margin of the field. This peculiarity is shared by the apochromatic objectives also, and to their lower powers it has even been intentionally imparted to an approximately similar degree, a means being thereby obtained of almost entirely eliminating this error with the aid of suitable oculars. For this purpose the latter are made to possess an equivalent error of the opposite sign, that is, the image formed be the red rays is larger than that corresponding to tho blue rays. Such oculars serve thus to compensate the errors of the objectives and the images then appear uniformly free from colour up to the very edge of the diaphragm prescribing the limits of the visual field, whilst this edge of the diaphragm itself shows a reddish or yellowish border. ===== 17 — The mounts of the oculars are adjusted so that the lower focal points of all the numbers lie in the same plane when they are inserted into the body-tube (Fig. 4). Ocular N°. 2 12 18 Fig. 4. Compensating1 Oculars. ('/, Full Size.) A A. Plane of the upper edge of the tube. B B. Lower focal plane of the oculars. A change of oculars necessitates therefore scarcely any alteration of focus, the distance between the upper focal point of the objective and the lower focal point of the ocular remaining constant. This distance, which is the determining element of the total magnifying power, is designated "the optical tube- length", and is designated by A in Fig. 1, p. 9, (see above-quoted work by DIPPEL, p. 188). In continental microscopes with apochromatic objectives and compensating •oculars this optical tube-length is 180 mm (about 7 Vie in.), irrespective of small differences between various objectives, the tube-length proper (see p. 8) being in all cases maintained at 160 mm (about 6Y2 in.). The classification of these oculars is carried out on the plan proposed by ABBE. Accordingly, the numbers, which denote how many times an ocular - when used with the standard tube-length - - increases the initial magnifying power of an objective, afford a correct measure of the ocular magnifications and, at the same time, furnish the figures for a rational series of distinguishing numbers. In this way the series of our compensating oculars has been arranged "by the ocular magnifications 2. 4, 6, 8, 12, 18, which supply, at the same time, the distinguishing numbers. The magnification at an image distance of 250 mm (10 in.) obtained by the com- bination of a compensating ocular with any apochromatic objective may thus be quickly found by multiplying its number by the numerical value of the initial magnification of the objective. For instance, an objective of 3 mm focus combined with ocular 12 gives a magnification of 12 X 83-3 = 1000 diameters. Swiss, Sena. j Q __^__ The exceptionally low power ocular 2, known as the Searcher Ocular, serves to extend the effectiveness of the various magnifications required to be successively used with any one objective as far as possible downwards through the lower strata of a specimen, also to facilitate preliminary examination and the process of searching for particular points of the object when high- power objectives are being used. The Working Oculars vary in magnifying power from 4 upwards, and even their highest powers can be used with the greatest comfort. In all of them the eye-point (the exit pupil) lies sufficiently high above the upper lens surface, and the diameter of the lenses is sufficiently large, to completely obviate the in- conveniences formerly attending the use of oculars of short focus. We have modified one of the series of compensating ocu- lars - • the X -I ~ ' fitting it with a collective lens of large diameter. Under this modification it is designated Compensa- ting Ocular 4*. As compared with the ordinary Compensa- ting Ocular 4, its field is considerably enlarged. To use this ocular with Stand |, the ocular-tube is unscrewed out of the draw-tube -- with Stands III and IV the draw-tube is un- screwed at the shoulder — and the Compensating Ocular 4* screwed in instead. It is fitted with a revolving collar and can be fixed rigidly in any desired position by means of a clamping screw K. An iris-diaphragm, by means of which the area of the field may be varied at will - - frequently a great convenience in demonstrations -- takes the place of the ordinary fixed dia- phragm. The eye-lens is mounted in a sliding sleeve, after the manner of our micrometer oculars thereby adapting it for use with a scale, &c., when desired. Fiir. 5. Ompensatiiifr Ocular 4* with iris-diaphragm. ('/., Full Size.) The enlargement of the area of the visual field is, however, of real practical value only in the case of the lower-power objectives of 16 mm and 8 mm, because the sharp field of the higher powers is not sufficiently large to satisfactorily fill the field of this ocular. Should this special ocular be employed on a Stand III or \\l, possessing neither Nose-piece or Sliding Objective- Changer, an intennediate adapting ring of definite length must be sc reived into the main tube.

Aided by the considerably extended list of materials produced by the local Glass Works we have reconstructed most of the older types of our achromatic objectives, the higher powers of the dry system have, moreover, received single lenses of fluorite, so as to obviate in these objectives also, more completely than had formerly been possible, imperfections due to spherical and chro- matic aberration. With those systems of the dry series which have a numerical aperture exceeding 0.65 this improvement, apart from greater sharpness and clearness of the image, is also manifested by increased sensibility to differences in the thickness of the cover-glass and the length of tube. Consequently, in the use of these objectives now even closer attention must be given to these two points than formerly. 6. Objectives at, si2, 113, attached to the tube. (V, Full Size.) Fig. 7. Objective a*. By rotation of the ring RR the upper pair of lenses (i2) may be elevated into the position L,' , indicated by dotted lines. (Full Size.) Our lowest power objectives, viz: a0. at, 82 and 83, are simple achromatic lenses, so mounted, that, notwithstanding their great focal length, the body of the microscope remains at its ordinary elevation during observation. For this purpose lenses a» and at have their threads so situated that, when screwed into the tube, the lens is inside the body (see at, Fig. 6), and they cannot therefore be used with a revolving nose-piece or other objective-changer. Though the former is primarily intended for use with our binocular microscopes,- = 21 = we now also supply it in a mount resembling that shown in Fig. 6 (ai) thereby adapting it to other stands. Should the systems 3o and ai be employed on the Mineralogical Stand III M or Stand XI -- which must be expressly so stated in the order - - it is given a similar mount as the system 83; they can then also be employed in combination with a nose-piece or sliding objective-changer. Mounted in tJiis manner, the objectives produce a somewhat higher magnification. Objective a* (Fig. 7) consists of two achromatic lenses combined after an original formula of our own computation. By means of a ring RR, rotating like a correction-collar, the lenses may be brought closer together or separated, whereby, in combination with an ocular, the magnification can be so greatly varied that its power is approximately doubled by changing the position of the index from 0 to division 10 of the scale. In the year 1890 we constructed the Water Immersion D*. It facilitates the investigation of living micro-organisms and objects suspended in water at medium magnifications. Its great working distance gives to the microscopist a relatively wide range in following the motions of such creatures through both the upper and lower strata of the water. The peculiar construction of the system tends to restrict the greatest sharpness of the image to the central portion of the field. The system may be used with or without cover-glass and gives equally good images with fresh as with sea water. For the investigation of fluids by means of the Appliances for the investi- gation of Ultra-microscopical Particles, is the objective D * particularly adapted on account of its great free-working distance. See prospectus relating to Appliances for the investigation Ultra-microscopical Particles (M 164), p. 6. The Water Immersion Objective PI, an optical combination introduced by us in 1898 under the designation of the Plankton-Searcher, serves essentially the same purposes as the system just previously described. Owing to its long focus this objective yields only low magnifications, and though its aperture is 0.11, it gives the very large working distance of about 36 mm, and the depth of defini- tion is considerable. The use of new kinds of glass, capable of resisting the influence of water, has facilitated a well-nigh apochromatic correction. To facilitate the use of this objective, we supply a special glass cell No. 2030 (glass slide with deep glass cylinder cemented thereon), suitable for use also with the paired objectives (Pl\ Glass cell for PI and Marks Codeword 3.50 Pajarita «I»», §cna. 22 List of the Achromatic Objectives.

We make also a HUYGENIAX Ocular 2* with iris-diaphragm similar to the compensating ocular 4*. What has been said with regard to compensating ocular 4* applies equally to this HUYGENIAN ocular 2*. (See p. 18.) Regarding oculars for special purposes see under heading of Accessory Apparatus, pp. 86 — 89. We would particularly emphasise the fact that HUYGENIAN oculars are designed for use with achromatic objectives only.

The objectives (PI) may only be used as water-immersion objectives. Stands. The general form of stand of "continental" design, which originated in the type first introduced by G. OBERHAUSER and was subsequently developed by E. HARTNACK, has undergone many important alterations within the course of the second half of the past century. The introduction of the ABBE illuminating apparatus, various new features in the construction of the stage, and considerable improvement of the means of focussing mark the material progress which is particularly noteworthy in the case of monocular stands. These fundamental changes in the construction of the older universal type of stand have demonstrated to us the necessity of also modifying our binocular stands, which we introduced some years ago. In the last year or two we have made substantial modifications, aiming at simplification, in the construction of the medium and small stands, and regarding which, special prospectuses have already been published by us. They deal princi- pally with the provision made for the subsequent addition of accessories to stage and illuminating apparatus of the stand in its simplest form, and at the same time, by avoiding all superfluous luxury of finish in the stand itself, reducing thereby the price of these stands as low as possible. A. Illumination of the Object. I. Illumination by transmitted light. J D Modern microscopy relies mainly on illumination by transmitted light, with a concomitant facility for a wide variation of the incident pencil both as regards its [angular aperture and its direction. Both these requirements are fully met by the ABBE Illuminating Apparatus, first introduced by us in 1872 (see E. ABBE in M. SCHULTZE'S Archiv fur mikrosk. Anatomie, vol. IX, 1873, pp. 469—480, and Gesammelte Abhandlungen, I, Jena 1904, pp. 101—112). The use of this apparatus has in the course of the last few decades become so general, and it has been so universally acknowledged as an indispensable accessory t33, Stna. = 28 in advanced microscopic work, that it now justly forms an essential adjunct to all the larger stands intended for scientific research. Particulars regarding the construction and L application of tliis apparatus may be found in the detailed directions for use, which are issued with each stand fitted with the ABBE illuminating apparatus. Figr. 9. a: ABBE Illuminating' Apparatus with ordinary Condenser No. 25'; r: screw for clamping the condenser in the sliding sleeve; p: knob of iris-diaphragm No. 23; *: ordinary Condenser Xo. 26; c: Cylinder-diaphragm No. 21. (Full Size.) The various lens systems — Condensers — which are adapted for use with the ABBE illuminating apparatus are all mounted in such a manner that they can be conveniently inserted into the sliding sleeve of the apparatus and may, if necessary, be clamped in any position. See Fig. 9. Since 1886 we have invariably added an iris-diaphragm, which facilitates a very gradual variation of the aperture. We only supply the ARBE illuminating apparatus with one of the follotving stands : I, III and IV. Its adaptation to other stands - if at all practicable - - must be carried out in our own works. The various diaphragms, condensers, &c. used in connection with the appar- atus are, however, supplied separately as follows: 29 No. 21. The Cylinder-Diaphragm, Fig. 5K A sliding tube fitted with v5 stops yielding apertures of 1 mm, 3 mm and (> mm diameter. Xo. 22. The * Iris-Cylinder Diaphragm. In order to obtain a gradual variation of the illumination when working without a condenser, we have con- structed the iris-cylinder diaphragm. The laminae forming the apertures of these diaphragms are arched in the shape of a cupola so that, when the iris is entirely closed, their edges almost touch the lower side of the object slide. The cylinder-diaphragm Xo. 21 and the iris-cylinder diaphragm No. 22 can also be employed in the sliding sleeve of Stand V. In subsequent orders for cylinder and iris-cylinder diaphragms the factory number of the stand with which they are to be used should be stated. No. 23. The Iris-Diaphragm. The ordinary iris-diaphragm, as always supplied with the illuminating apparatus, may also be obtained independently. No. 24. Diaphragms for dark-ground illumination. Since a rational employment of dark-ground illumination is only possible , when the dimensions of the stop are exactly adapted to the aperture of both objective and condenser, the various stops are only supplied to special order. For the homogeneous immersion systems we will in future supply only a star-disc with central stops to be suspended in the objective mount above the lenses. Stopping down the illuminating cone of rays is thus not performed by means of a central stop in the diaphragm carrier, but through the ordinary iris-diaphragm. In subsequent orders should be mentioned the objective and condenser for which the central stops are required. (See directions for the ABBE Illuminating Apparatus.) Objectives with correction collars are unsuitable for the employment in illumination. Cylinder-diaphragm with 3 stops Iris-cylinder Diaphragm Iris-diaphragm for the diaphragm carrier ........

The apparatus offers the advantage <>f having the condenser and the iris-cylinder diaphragm combined. Fig. 10. By the aid of a suitable mechanism the condenser system may be folded clear of the carrier of the iris-cylinder diaphragm and swung aside so as to facilitate, by simple means, a change from illumination by mirror and condenser to that by mirror alone.

This form of condenser was suggested by Professor ROLLETT of Graz. It is specially designed to admit of the use of ZOTH'S cooling trough which should be placed directly below the object (see p. 93). The aperture is regulated by means of the iris-diaphragm of the illumin- ating apparatus.

The slides used with this apparatus may not exceed a thickness of about 0.7 mm. The aperture is here also regulated by means of the iris-diaphragm of the illuminating apparatus. Regarding the advantages of the Achromatic Condenser over the ordinary, see our catalogue relating to Micro-photographic Apparatus, 5th Edition 1903, p. 31.

Illumination by incident light. In the examination of opaque objects, metal specimens, etc., ar appliance for adequately lighting up the specimens from above is indispensable If the free working distance of the objective used be very large, it general!} answers sufficiently well to illuminate the object by the direct rays of daylight 01 lamplight, but, if necessary, the condition of the light may be improved by mean; of a collective lens placed before the microscope (see under heading of Accessory Apparatus, p. 91). When, however, the available working distance is small, ar appliance for passing the light through the objective becomes necessarv.

As it is of importance for the efficient working of the apparatus that the upper lens of the objective should be as close to the prism as possible, most objectives intended for work with a vertical illuminator should be fitted in special mounts. Preparations under a cover -glass are not suitable for examination with the apparatus, unless homogeneous immersion systems are being employed; again, the higher powers of the Apochromats, 8 mm and upwards, and the Achromats, D and upwards, with the exception of the homogeneous immersion systems, must therefore be specially corrected for investigation of uncovered objects. It is furthermore of great advantage to reduce the diameter of the image of the source of light so that the illuminated portion of the object may not be greater than the area of the visual field of the objective used. The: readiest means to attain this object is by placing the Collective Lens with Iris-Diaphragm No. 201 in the most favour- able position before the microscope. See Directions for Use of the Vertical Illuminator. No. 48. An illuminating appliance employing an incandescent lamp, by the aid of which intense light may be at once directed upon any particular point to be examined, is provided for use with Stand X°, known under the designation of the Corneal Microscope. Similar appliances are also applicable to our other binocular stands (see p. 63).

The dimensions of the stages of all our microscope stands, are sufficiently large to allow of any size of object slide or carrier being used. The opening of the stage has in most of the stands a diameter of 33 mn (l*/i6 in.) in order that the large field possessed by the objectives of long focu may be fully utilised. It may, however, be reduced by the insertion of a dia phragm (the stage diaphragm) which is supplied with each instrument. In Stand VI* the diameter of the stage opening is only about 20 mn (about 3/4 in.). Revolving Stages are fitted to Stands I and III M ; such stages may be sub sequently fitted to the other varieties of Stand III as well as to Stands IV and V Mechanical Stages, i. e., mechanical means of moving the object within th< plane of the stage in two directions at right angles to each other, may be fittec to Stands I, III, IV and V. No. 44. The * Large Mechanical Stage, Fig. 14. The range of th< movements of this pattern of stage is 50 mm (2 in.) in one direction anc 35 mm (1% in.) in the other; the readings of variations in either direction arc taken from scales and verniers. (See Zeitschr. f. wiss. Mikrosk., vol. XI, 1894 pp. 301 — 304.) In the latest models a third scale and vernier is added foi recording the positions of the movable cheek-piece which secures the object slide This arrangement facilitates the convenient use of the apparatus as a "finder", and the process of centring is at the same time much simplified by the additior of a centring-glass an object slide having a cross ruled upon it.

It should be observed that, in inserting another stage, the spring steel pin, housed in front part of the bed, engages in the groove situated in the turning ring of the stage proper. i The stages Nos. 44 and 45 may be inserted into the centring appliance in the Stands I, III and IV and can, forthwith, be inter- changeably used one after the other. *Photo- micrographic Stage. For photo - micrographic and projection purposes it is particularly desirable to be able to impart a very slow motion to the object and simultaneously to rotate the stage round the optical axis of the microscope. Both these requirements are met by our photo-micrographic stage. It has a diameter of 100 mm (4 in.) and may be moved in two directions at right angles to each other within a margin of 10 mm (3/8 in.) by means of two co-axial inilled-heads. The amount of the movements is read by two separate scales and verniers. Having no centring appliance, this stage is not interchangeable with the large mechanical or the revolving vulcanite stage. t For this reason we supply the photo-mierographic stage only in con- nection with Stands I C No. 5805 and 5810. i», Sena. ., o = 3° No. 46. *Attachable Mechanical Stage (old pattern). Fig. 15. The construction of this stage is based in its essential features upon the principle evolved by Mr. J. MAYALL junr. (see Journal Roy. Microsc. Soc. (2), V, 122, 1885). Two sliding pieces, mounted at right angles to, and in immediate contact with, one another, are moved by means of two milled-heads. Their various positions are recorded by scales and verniers. The range of the lateral movement is 50 mm (2 in.), that of the movement from front to rear 30 mm (l3/lti in.). The apparatus may also be used as a "finder" (see directions for using this accessory). No. 47. *Attachable Mechanical Stage (new model), Fig. 16. The milled-heads which cause the movement of the sliding pieces are co-axial in this pattern of traversing stage and retain their relative posi- tions in turning. The lateral movement may be effected with either the right or left hand. The margin of movement is slightly greater than with the small mechanical stage, No. 46; the area which can be effectively searched measures about 60 X 30 mm (about 23/8 X !3/i6 in.). The peculiar mechanism of this stage guarantees a considerably greater security in the movement of the sliding pieces and fulfils all requirements of a movable stage when applied to the purposes of a "finder". An accurately gauged centring-glass, upon which the divisions of the crossed line are marked from two edges of the slide, is Jsupplied with each stage No. 47. (See Zeitschr. f. Instr.-Kde., vol. XX, 1900, pp. 325—327 see also the directions for using the stage.) The Attachable Mechanical Stages Nos. 46 and 47 are attached to the prism flange of the Stand: they are designed for use on our Stands IV A — C and V A — C Only and can be attached to these Stands without any special adaptation.

(»/,, Full Size.) — 40 — Besides the mechanical and revolving stages, auxiliary apparatus serving the purpose of moving microscopical objects may also be employed. The Prism Rotator is a suitable accessory to the Binocular Stand Xa and also to other stands having a stage aperture of 33 mm (about 1 3/a in.) diameter. The Capillary Rotator may be used in connection with stands having a smaller stage aperture. (For particulars regarding the above two appliances refer to pp. 89 and 90.) For the purpose of determining the amount of very delicate movements in o n e particular direction, especially where exact measurements of horizontal displacements are in question, our Stage Screw-Micrometer (see p. 78) will be found ' useful. We may here also mention the MALTWOOD Finder (see Zeitschrift f. wiss. Mikrosk., vol. V, 1888, p. 40), which is an auxiliary appliance for reminding any particular spot in a specimen under examination. It is a "finder" appliance of the simplest description and may be used with any of our movable stages. (See p. 93.) C. The Focussing of the Objectives. The coarse adjustment. The whole of the microscope stands specified in this catalogue are provided with rack and pinion for the coarse adjustment. We have constructed special machines for the accurate production of the oblique toothgearing, and this motion is now made in such perfection that even objectives of medium power can be focussed with sufficient exactness by it alone without the use of the micrometer-screw. The fine adjustment. The micrometer movement introduced by us in 1886 (see Zeitschr. f. wiss. Mikroskopie, vol. Ill, 1886, pp. 207—209) has during this long period been in extensive use and has proved absolutely satisfactory. We have therefore retained it in the Stands IV, V and VI. The superiority of this is mainly due to the fact that the force exercised by the micrometer-screw is transferred to the movable body by a single contact between two hardened steel surfaces, which ensures an extremely delicate and uniform motion. In 1898 we introduced an entirely new type of construction of the upper part of the Stand. The coarse adjustment by means of rack and pinion was retained, hut the mechanism for fine adjustment underwent a complete change. 4 1 The then generally used prismatic movement was discarded in favour of one by means of slides. The sliding piece itself is situated close behind the coarse adjustment action, with which it is rigidly connected by screws. See Fig. 17. A worm-wheel, movable by means of an endless screw, is situated at the lower end of the micrometer-screw and serves in a sense as a screw-head. See Fig. 17. Here also the force exercised by the micrometer-screw is transferred to the movable body which carries the tube by a single contact between two hardened steel surfaces. The whole mechanism, with the exception of the two milled-heads acting upon the endless screw, is enclosed inside the crane-shaped carrier and is thus protected against all direct damage from outside. An additional safety appliance prevents injury to the micrometer-screw when the sliding piece has reached the limits of its movement. 29. Fig. 17. lti:i;i.i:i:-s Micrometer Movement. (Full Size.) Qazt Sews, 3««ct. 42 As the axes of the milled-heads used in the fine and coarse adjustment are parallel, and as in elevating and depressing the tube both turn in the same direction, the change from one movement to the other is most convenient for the hand of the operator. As regards details of construction we would refer to the article : "Em neuer Mikro- skop-Oberbau", Zeitschrift fur Instrumentenkunde, vol. XVIII, 1898, pp. 129 — 133. The divisions on the millcd-head of the old type of micrometer move- ment, as applied to our Stand IV enables one to read movements of 0. 0 0 5 m m of the tube in the direction of the optical axis. One of the milled-heads of BERGER's micrometer movement is also provided with a divided scale, each division of which corresponds to a variation of 0.002 mm in the posi- tion o f t h e tube. By means of above measurements of thickness may be made with a considerable degree of accuracy. The upper and lower surfaces of the object are successively focussed and the respective positions of the index read off on the divisions of the milled-head. The difference between the two readings -- objectives of the dry series being used - then represents the thickness of the corresponding stratum of air. If the refractive index of the object be known, its actual thickness may be approxim- ately ascertained by means of this also. Inversely, the refractive index of an object may also be approximately determined if its thickness be known. Assuming d = the difference between the two readings, D = the actual thickness of the object, and ;/ = its refractive index, then — although approximately only -- the formula D = nd holds good. In, for instance, estimating the thickness of a cover-glass, // mav be assumed to bo equal to 1.5 without risk of appreciable error. In taking ""measurements of this kind it is best to use one of the higher dry lenses and a medium ocular, using central illumination. With regard to the execution of more exact measurements of thickness by the aid of the micrometer-screw see an article by S. CZAPSKI on "Die Bestimmung von Deckglas- dicken an fertigen Praparaten" (Zeitschr. f. wiss. Mikrosk., vol. V, 1888, pp. 482—484). t The draw-tube, which is possessed by all stands, with the exception of the Stands IX, X, XI and the Hand-microscope admits of being increased or diminished ; the existing tube-length (see pp. 8 and 9) can be read by means of a scale engraved on the draw-tube, whereby the length of any apparatus -- nose-piece, objective changer and the like inserted between tube and objec- tive -- may be duly compensated for (see pp. 8 and 9). The lower end is provided with the standard screw to take an objective of lower power, as, for instance, the auxiliary objective used with the apertometer. This standard screw 43 is only absent in the inner tube of the large mineralogical Stand III M ; instead of a screw thread a slide is made use of, into which the BERTRAND Lens can be inserted from the outside. (See pp. 50 and 51.) The internal diameter of our draw-tube is 23.3 mm at the ocular end. D. Appliances for Changing the Objectives on the Stand. Revolving Nose-pieces or Sliding Objective -changers are appliances designed to facilitate the rapid and commodious interchange, while interfering as little as possible with the focussing and centring, of the objectives. The sliding objective changers are in so far superior to the revolving nose- pieces that they admit of the maintenance of the focussing and centring with much greater precision than the latter are ever capable of giving. Another advantage is that in using them the number of objectives is not restricted to any particular limit. In using nose-piece or objective-changer, the length of the nose- piece (15 mm) and that of the objective-changer (22 mm) should be taken into consideration, and the draw-tube shortened by the like amount. (See p. 8.) Nos. 48 — 50. Revolving Nose-pieces, Fig. 18. "A clamping ring with milled edge serves to fix the nose-piece in any desired position -- as a rule so as to have the objectives not in actual use turned symmetrically towards the front. The objectives are screwed into the nose-piece and can by a simple turn be placed in rapid succession in alignment with the tube, the correct position being indicated by the snapping of a spring. A curved cover, turned by special methods of our own, fits closely over the openings into which the objectives are screwed and protects them against dust. 44 We supply revolving nose-pieces to receive 2, 3 and 4 objectives.

The plane of the tube-slide is inclined to the axis of the tube at an angle of about 84°. The plane of the objective-slide, No. 53, is inclined at a cor- responding angle so that, on being withdrawn, the objective moves slightly away from the specimen.

Hand Microscope. We supply a Hand Microscope (Fig. 26) suitable for class demonstration The stage, with clips to hold the specimen, is fixed to the sleeve which receives the body-tube. The instrument is focussed by altering the position of the tube in the sleeve and after adjustment securing it by a clamping ring. Fine adjust- ment is effected by drawing the ocular, which fits into the tube with a certain amount of spring, in or out as required. In using the instrument it is directed by hand towards a window or lamp. Fig1. 26. Hand Microscope. (V, Full Size.)

In the course of 1897 we introduced a new form of binocular microscope in which stereoscopic vision is obtained, not by division of a pencil of light passing through a single objective but by a combination of two microscopes, complete in themselves and provided with erecting prisms. In the Stands Xa, Xb and X° the double tube is adjustable by means of rack and pinion. The application of erecting oculars fitted with PORRO Prisms affords a convenient means of adjustment for varying inter-pupillary distances. The paired objectives are mounted upon slides and require adjusting for each stand separately. Consequently it is necessary to send us the tube when subsequently ordering paired objectives. The mount of one of the objectives is provided with screw threads to facilitate equally sharp focussing of both lenses in cases where inequalities of power of vision in the two eyes require com- pensating. We supply paired objectives for these microscopes in five series (see p. 23), viz: (55), (ao), (a?), (a?) and (pT). The magnifications obtainable by combinations of the above objectives and oculars range between 8 and 72 diameters; see tables on p. 26, which also contain data of free working distances and of diameters of the visible areas of objects. It should be observed, that the objective (pf) can only be used as a water immersion system. (See p. 21.) The movement of the casings of the PORRO Prisms is sufficient to admit of adjustment for any inter-pupillary distance within normal limits (56 — 76 mm = 2l/4 — 3 to-)- In cases where the eyes are abnormally far apart or close together the actual measurements should be specified when ordering. 6i V£j«'-«A>.. f O.

Hand-rests may be attached at both sides of the stage and are always supplied with each stand. After removing the upper body a vulcan- ite fork, which accompanies Stand Xa, may be screwed on to the body-tube carrier in place of the stage. In this form (Fig 28b) the instrument is available for objects of any shape and may, for instance, be conveniently used as a "Dermatoscope" for examining the skin etc., the body carrier being steadied by the hand. Instead of the tube-carrier illustrated in Fig. 28a a straight column No. 9520 can be attached upright upon the stage, so that a stereoscopic camera may be adapted to Stand Xa; the double tube also of Stand Xb can be employed by means of a column upon the lower part of Stand Xa. Stand Xb. This stand, Fig. 29, is primarily designed for the preparation of objects which are too large to be dealt with on the stage of Stand Xa. It is also ex- cellently adapted for pond -life studies (whence it may aptly be termed an Aquarium or Tank Microscope) and for the observation of portions of large botanical objects, mineralogical specimens, etc., in short, for the microscopical examination of small areas included within more extensive objects which are not to be broken up into smaller fragments. The stand is provided with an extra sliding piece fitted with the "Society" screw which, when in position, closes the opening of one tube. The other tube may then be employed as a monocular microscope, the objective in use having first been exchanged for one of higher power if necessary (see Zeitschr. f. wiss. Mikrosk., vol. XIV, 1897, pp. 5 — 10). The stand is mounted on a heavy oblong foot and is fitted with 3 rack- and-pinion and 4 rotary movements. By the appropriate use of these move- ments every point of an object, however irregular its outline may be, can be thoroughly examined.

For feeding the lamp it is best to use accumulators. If connection be established with an existing electrical supply system, sufficient resistance must be provided. Small incandescent lamps of 12 volt pressure can also be supplied if desired. The double tube with its illuminator attachment is movable within the vertical plane by means of a joint which works on a horizontal axis and may be clamped in any desired position, while a vertical axis admits of the opposite movement. The microscope is elevated or depressed by means of rack and pinion and a second similar movement effects changes of position from front to rear.

XLVIII, i8gg,pp. 22g— From a suggestion of Prof. GULLSTRAND we provide, when requested, Stand Xc with an arrangement for illuminating the object laterally, No. 9810; for this purpose the illuminating apparatus No. 43 is made slidable in an arc. The price of the stand with this adaption is increased by 30 Marks. Subsequent transformation of Stand X° No. 98 is possible so as to embody GULLSTRAND' s device for lateral illumination; it entails, however, the simul- taneous ordering of a new cabinet, costing 22 Marks, since any alteration of the stand will not allow its further accommodation in the cabinet previously supplied with the simple Stand Xc. Stand X° resting upon a massive tripod foot is most advantageously employed when set upon the sole-plate with chin-rest No 9820. At the suggestion of Prof. EVERSBUSCH this sole-plate is made so as to be movable in two directions at right angles to each other.

To clamp the slide a short lever is provided. The body-tube is provided with an image-erecting PORRO prism-system. I he lower end of the tube carries the standard thread ; an intermediate ring, 15 mm (s/i6 in.) in length, accompanies each stand, in order to be able to use the higher power objectives even without nose-piece. The employment of the nose- piece is, however, to be recommended, since it permits the rapid change from teasing out and dissection of specimens with low magnifications to observation with higher magnifications. The intermediate ring should be removed before attaching the nose-piece. Respecting details of construction, see: P. CULMANN, Monokulares bildauf- richtendes Prismenmikroskop, Zeitschr. f. wiss. Mikrosk. XX, 1903, pp. 416—420. The lower and medium power objectives to D can be used on Stand XI ; the systems ao and ai, are supplied in a special mount when used with this stand. A still lower power, 55 mm (2l/8 in.) focal length, costing 15 Marks (Codeword.- Pataroxa), is likewise suitable. Our Drawing Apparatus No. 109—112 can be attached to this just as to our other monocular stands. Stand Pll. Drawing Apparatus for low magnifications. This stand is intended not only for the observation and dissection of large objects but also to afford facilities for drawing an extensive specimen upon any desired scale within wide limits. Two horizontal arms may be moved by rack and pinion up or down the massive brass column situated on the left. The upper one has a hole bored into its outer extremity for the insertion of various holders for spectacle-lenses, magni- fiers and for an erecting microscope ; the lower arm carries a stage frame into which a plate of glass, metal or wood may be inserted.

The drawing prism, No. 109, slips over the ocular, but if it is to be used in conjunction with magnifiers or spectacle-lenses, it is fixed to the sides of their holders. The drawing board rests upon a frame resembling a desk on the face of which it slides up or down at an inclination of 25°. The frame itself slides backward and forward in the groove of the base-plate. Scales engraved on both sides of the stage in conjunction with a scale on the base-plate serve to ensure an equal magnification being maintained through- out the process of drawing selected portions of a large object. fig. 32. Stand PIT, Drawing Apparatus for low magnifications. (V, Full SUe.) = 69 — The apparatus can also be used for drawing on a reduced scale by placing the object upon the drawing-board and the paper upon the wooden plate of the stage. Objective a* with variable initial magnification is the most suitable lens for drawing with the microscope although other objectives of low and medium power, to perhaps C, may still be used with a fair degree of convenience. The combination of a* with HuYGENIAN oculars Nos. 1 — 5 results in almost any desired magnification, ranging between X 2.25 and X 23, being obtained, while the diameter of the visual field varies between about 6 and 45 mm (llt and !3/4 in.). Spectacle-lenses of from 1 to 5 diopters yield magnifications from 1.25 to 2.25 diameters. For details in construction we must refer to: M. BERGER, Zeitschr. f. Instrkde.

The drawing surface in all drawing apparatus of our make is rendered visible by double reflection, while the pencils of rays emerging from the micro- scopes or magnifiers reach the eye by a direct path. In addition to the old form of "Camera hicida" - the drawing prism. No. 109, shown in Fig. 33 and introduced by us in 1869 — the drawing apparatus designed by Professor ABBE has been supplied by us for about the last 20 years. For a special Drawing Apparatus for low maf/nificationx see pp. 67 — 69. While in the drawing prism, as also in most other existing forms of drawing apparatus, only a semi-circular portion of the exit pupil can be utilised, in the ABBE drawing^ camera the full area of the pencil is effective. Loss of light is therefore avoided even when using the highest magnification, while both the pencil and the drawing surface remain quite clearly visible. This material advantage is gained by the application of a small cube, composed of two equal rectangular prisms cemented together -- the "ABBE cube" in the position of the eye-point of the ocular. The cemented surface of the upper prism is silvered but has a central aperture of 1 or 2 mm diameter. The brightness of the drawing surface and of the image can be modified in all our drawing apparatus by the interposition of smoked glasses. With drawing prism, No. 109, as also with the small ABBE drawing ap- paratus, No. 110, one or two smoked glasses may be inserted into the prism casing. The .brightness of the image may be moderated in either of two ways, i. e., by appropriate stopping or by the use of smoked glasses in connection with the illuminating source. For the purpose indicated above the large ABBE drawing apparatus, Nos. Ill and 112, are fitted with a cap encasing the prisms from above, which is provided with moderating glasses of varying degrees of illumination, and with a similarly equipped eccentric disc pivoted below the prisms. In both appliances only five of the six openings contain smoked glass, the sixth remaining clear so that the cap and disc may remain attached although the brightness of the image or of the drawing surface may not require moderating. In order to enable the somewhat large exit pupil of the microscope obtained with low magnifications being fully utilised, the usual ABBE cube with aperture of 1 mm can, with the two large drawing apparatus, quickly and conveniently be exchanged for another of 2 mm aperture. Glasses to correct defects of vision are, if required, supplied with our drawing apparatus. No. 109. *Old form of Camera lucida. This drawing prism is only supplied in the form shown in Fig. 33.

The requirements of measuring microscopic objects are in most cases met by the use of simple ocular micrometers, i. e., of small glass discs with divisions, which are dropped into the oculars with the side bearing 'the division lines downwards. The values of divisions are best determined by comparison with a good stage-micrometer for each combination of objective and ocular. Approximate values, which are in many cases sufficiently accurate, will be found in tables supplied with each ocular micrometer. These tables apply to combinations of achromatic objectives with HuYGENIAN oculars, and are calculated for the pre- scribed (160 mm) tube-length. In combinations of the compensating oculars 6 with any of the apo- chromatic objectives the approximate determination of the value of an interval becomes very much simplified. The divisions in this ocular are so computed that with a tube-length of 160 mm the value of one interval of the micrometer scale represents exactly as many micra, /< (0.001 mm), as there are millimetres in the focal length of the objective, i. e., Systems: 16 mm, 8 mm etc., value of inter- val: 16 «, 8 n etc. (See Zeitschr. f. wiss. Mikrosk., vol. V, 1888, pp. 150—155.) As however these values also are still only approximate, a comparison must be made with the stage-micrometer whenever more exact measurements are required. Our regular manufacture of Ocular Micrometers is restricted to the one form, catalogued as No. 117 : 5 mm divided in Vio mm. Other divisions to order.

Micrometer Oculars. Oculars sliding eye-lenses, "micrometer oculars", are constructed for the purpose of facilitating exact adjustment of the micrometer scale to the eyes of individual observers. These are the HUYGEXIAN oculars 2 and 3 (Xo. 120) for achromatic, and compensating ocular 6 (No. 122) for apo- chromatic objectives. The upper part of the ocular-tube is capable of being unscrewed so that the ocular-micro- meter can be conveniently laid upon the diaphragm. By fitting a drum-shaped adapter to these micrometer oculars lateral adjustment of the micrometer scale, or of, an index (see under Index Oculars, p. 88), becomes also possible. When thus fitted, they are called "Drum Oculars with Micrometer" and may also consist of either the HUYGENIAN oculars 2 or 3 (No. 121) or compensating ocular 6 (No. 123).

Each interval of the divided drum corresponds to a movement of 0.01 mm of the point marked. Complete revolutions of the drum are counted by means of a numbered scale seen in the field. The measurement can be extended over a tract of 4 mm of the objective image. The absolute values corresponding to the divisions of the drum should be determined by the aid of a stage-micrometer for each separate objective. Fig. 38. Screw Micrometer Ocular, No. 124.

The division embraces a square of f> mm. divided into squares of 1.0 or 0.5 mm, as may be desired. When ordering please state whether the "micrometer scale is required for an ordinary or for a micrometer ocular. Xo. 141. P. EHRLICH'S Ocular-diaphragms may be used for counting the number of corpuscles within a field of known area, in a similar manner as the ocular cross-line micrometers. These diaphragms are provided with square openings and are supplied in assorted sets having squares of 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8 and 10 mm. In the case of ocular cross-line micrometers as well as EHRLICH's diaphragms - unless the latter are merely intended for verification of the quantities within the same area -- it is necessary for each combination of objective and ocular to ascertain, by means of stage micrometers, the actual surface values corresponding to the various fields. EHRLICH'S diaphragms being primarily designed for use in conjunction with micrometer oculars (see p. 76), it should be expressly stated when ordering them if they are to be used with other types of oculars. No. 142. CrOSS-line Stage Micrometers are, as a rule, supplied only in connection with the appliance known as the *Counting Chamber. This latter consists of a cell of exact and uniform depth of 0.1 mm, the bottom of which is ruled in squares. The most commonly used form of such chamber (THOMA's) — No. 142 -- contains 400 squares, each having an area of Y^o square millimetre.

Apertometer. A simple apparatus for determining the numerical and angular aperture of objectives, the Apertometer, was designed by Professor ABBE in 1876. It is adapted for any large or medium stand fitted with a draw-tube. A low-power objective of about 40 mm focal length, which screws into the lower extremity of the draw-tube, is supplied with the instrument, but under appropriate stopping the BERTRAND lens may, with Mineralogical Stand HIM, be used instead. The auxiliary microscope, formed by the combin- ation of the low-power objective with the ocular, being focussed upon the exit pupil of the objective to be examined, the numerical aperture of the latter i may be read off from the apertometer by means of two movable metal indicators. Further particulars regarding principles of construction of the apparatus and the method of measuring with it are contained in the Journ. of the R. Micr. Soc. (1), vol. I, 1878, pp. 19—22, and (1), vol. Ill, 1880, pp. 20—31; E. ABBE, Gesamm. Abhandl. I, 1904, pp. 113—118 and pp. 227—243; see also DIPPEL, "Das Mikroskop", vol.

For testing lenses with respect to spherical and chromatic aberrations and for estimating the thickness of the cover-glass, which corresponds to the most perfect correction, a test-plate was designed by ABBE in 1873. Used in conjunction with the ABBE Illuminating Apparatus and by establishing the sensitive rays, it gives the greatest prominence to any existing faults of correction. This test-plate consists of an object carrier with six cover-glasses of accur- ately determined thickness (0.09 mm to 0.24 mm) cemented side by side. These cover-glasses are silvered on their lower surfaces and engraved with lines, the jagged edges of which form the test-object proper. * See E. ABBE in Archiv f. mikr. Anat, vol.

Lamplight, if properly regulated, may almost completely replace good daylight. It is advisable to interpose between the source of light and the mirror of the microscope a spherical glass flask filled with water (such as is sometimes used by engravers) or, better still, a simple collective lens, so as to project a sufficiently large image of the source of light upon the iris-opening or upon the mirror.

This appliance helps, not only to produce a better image of the source of light, but also to confine the illuminated portion of the field within sharply defined limits. It is for this reason that it is so well adapted for illumination by means of the vertical illuminator (see pp. 34 and 35). Spectroscopes. Nos. 202 to 204. BROWNING'S Hand-Spectroscopes.

The chamber consists of a mahogany box encasing the whole of the micro- scope, with a window in the front to admit the necessary light. On either side is a closely fitting door through which the specimen can be moved with the fingers. The side walls may also be completely folded back, carrying with them the halves of the back wall, which is divided down the middle. The whole (chamber and microscope stand) rests upon a thick metal plate on three legs. The metal plate is heated from below by a micro-burner, No. 212, controlled by a thermo-regttlator, No. 215, and should be adjusted so as to burn with smokeless flame. By this means the whole stand and the air surrounding it are gradually brought to the same temperature, so that after a reasonable lapse of time the readings of the thermometer placed in the air space indicate the actual tempera- ture of the object on the stage. The temperature may be raised to 45° C (u? F) without risk of injury to the Stand or optical equipment. We supply this heating chamber in various forms, suitable for Stands with the older form of fine adjustment and for those with BERGER'S micrometer movement. In subsequent orders the factory number of the Stand, intend- ed to be used with the heating chamber, should be given.
