. Anatomical technology as applied to the domestic cat; an introduction to human, veterinary, and comparative anatomy. Cats; Dissection; Mammals. 72 ANATOMICAL TECHNOLOGY. A. A tracer may be made by any one from a piece Of steel rod, or from a dental '' exca- vator," but the saving so eflfected is hardly wortb tbe trouble. The instrument is made by Codman & Shurtleff, and perbaps by others. B. The tracer is apparently similar to the "seeker" of the English anatomists, and the "finder " of the Germans. The instrument was introduced into the laboratory of Cornell University with a microscope presented by the late Hon. John Stanton Gould. The con- version of the opposite end into a tapering probe was suggested by Mr. Willis N. Rudd, a student, and the sharpening of the concavity was first proposed by the junior author. § 167. Trays—Fig. 78.—These are usually made of stout tin, but copper is more durable. If wood is used, it should be thoroughly oiled. A wire loop should be soldered at the middle of each end, and on each side at about one-sixth of the distance from each end. Four sizes of trays are convenient in the dissection of cats: 15 X 20, 20 X 30, 30 x 40, and 40 x 60 cm. The depth of the two smaller sizes should be about 1 cm., and that of the two larger about 2 cm. The largest size should be stiffened by diagonals upon the bottom. § 168. Tripod Magnifier—Fig. 26.—This is a simple magnifier with a large field, and mounted upon a tripod which may be placed. "!l Qlyeerin Fie. 36.—Tkipod Magnifier; x 1; § 168.

The object should be held so as to receive the best light. § 169. Tunnels.—Several sizes are desirable, of both glass and tin. The latter should have the slender part fluted. When the larger part of a tin tunnel, or either part of a glass o
