The instrument in its simplest form isremarkably low priced, and the more important apparatus can be;,dded to il as required. It is illustrated in fig. 181. Becks third-class microscope is shown in fig. 182. It has a goodtripod foot with a single pillar. The Jackson model is used, buta peculiar line adjustment is employed, the lever being placed belowthe stage, the position of the screw being immediately behind thepillar which supports the limb, and where it is easy of access. Thebody is not affected by vibration when it is touched. The lever isof the second order, and it draws down the body limb and
