This instrument is fixed upon an iron stand with a wooden cover, after the fashion of a sewing-machine. Its mechanical construction is upon similar principles to the Minot, but more elaborate in detail, and its working parts are compensated for wear and tear. It differs chiefly from the Minot in the follow- ing particulars : The feed adjustment is not by an advance.

It differs chiefly from the Minot in the follow- ing particulars : The feed adjustment is not by an advance. Fig. 64.—Reinhold-Giltay Microtome : Mechanical Part. of the object, but by the sliding of the knife-block towards the object by means of a micrometer-screw, the movement of the object being restricted to the vertical direction. Pig. 64 illustrates the mechanical part of the microtome free from its stand. It is doubtful if for ordinary work this micro- tome is to be preferred to the Minot in its most complete form. As its price complete is a matter of some £26, we refer those interested to a full description by Dr. J. W. Moll.
