The name of the fiddle-holders is legion in theirimproved form. A good typical specimen, and one which isbeyond the reach of the vibrationists, is the latest introduc-tion (from America) of Mr. W. E. Hill (Fig. 107), which isformed of vulcanite and nickel. Its composition gives itascendency over its rivals, than which in other respects it isneither better nor worse. A chin-rest forming one piece withthe tail-piece, and with it affixed to the tail-pin, is represented.
