The phial with its congealed contents is placed in a sheath of brass tubing (Fig. 53) attached to a movable arm which carries the index of a vertical arc. This sheath corresponds with the Y's of a theodolite, and carries the phial firmly upon the same principle as these carry the usual telescope. The upper bulb of the phial is brought into the field of two crossed microscopes, which are carried with the arm round the vertical arc; these are kept truly in the same plane at every angle of inclination by a parallel motion. There are vertical lines drawn upon the object glass of each micro- scope, these being, of course, kept truly vertical by the.
